General fix & flip questions
How is the loan amount calculated?
Two caps apply at the same time: a percentage of purchase price (often 85–90%) plus 100% of rehab budget, AND a percentage of the as-completed value (ARV), typically 70–75%. The lower of the two caps governs.
Do I need experience to get a fix and flip loan?
No, but pricing improves with experience. Most lenders tier rates by completed flips in the last 24–36 months: 0 flips, 1–2, 3–5, 6–10, 10+. First-time flippers with a strong contractor and reserves can still qualify.
How are rehab funds disbursed?
Rehab is held in escrow and released through a draw process — typically 3–6 draws based on completion of scoped line items, with an inspector verifying each draw.
