Private money lending can be used for a variety of real estate investments, including fix and flips, buy and hold properties, and refinance.
4. What are the benefits of private money lending?
Benefits include quicker access to capital, flexibility in loan terms, no minimum credit score requirements, and the ability to secure financing for properties that may not meet traditional lending criteria.
5. Are you a Lender or a Broker and are there fees or commissions involved?
We are a lender and a broker. If for any reason we can’t provide the funding you need, then we have a large network of other lenders we work closely with and we can broker the funds to you. We like providing options to the investors we work with. So they can have the best rates and the quickest closings available to them. If you’re in need of a 100% funding we also have split equity opportunities available to provide you up to a 100% funding for your purchase, rehab and closing costs. Regardless of the loan type there is always a 3% Broker fee, which is standard in the industry.
6. Is my information kept confidential?
ABSOLUTELY 100%! Your privacy is of the utmost importance to us. Any information you provide is completely confidential! If you want to deal with a reliable, reputable company who will treat you with professionalism, understanding, and respect – YOU HAVE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE!
7. How do you decide the amount to lend?
It is based on the Asset you have under contract. Generally, we lend up to 90% of the purchase price and 90% of the rehab cost. Ask a loan officer how you can get up to a 100%
8. Why won’t you lend on owner-occupied properties?
Our current business model is to provide loans to real estate investors for non-owner-occupied real estate investments. If you are in need of funding for a home you will be occupying, enquire within and we can connect you with one of our owner-occupied funding partners.
9. I need 100% financing. Can you do that?
Yes. Ask a loan officer for more details. When joint venturing with us then we can indeed provide up to a 100% financing.
10. What Does True 100% Funding Mean?
We will lend up to 100% towards your purchase, rehab, and closing costs when a joint venture is established between Intrinsic Funding and the borrower… up to 70% of the ARV. The only out-of-pocket costs will be the Loan Application, The Appraisal Cost and The First Draw which will be reimbursed on the 2nd draw, as long as you are below 70% of the ARV.
11. How long does it take to close a transaction from start to finish?
About 14 days after we receive all required documentation but receiving all documentation can take three to four weeks. The key factor is the amount of time it takes you and your team to supply all the supporting documentation. We can do our part in roughly 14 business days, but Investors seeking funding rarely get us the documents quickly enough and complete enough to meet that. Aim for 30 days whenever you can. Remember: If the amount of time needed to close is a factor, you probably have competition, and competition rarely translates into a good deal. Bring your deal in to discuss it with us.

13.What Does ARV Mean?
ARV stands for After-Repair Value. It is the estimated value of a property after completed renovations.
