Fix-and-Flip Loan.

Fix-and-flip hard money loans provide New York real estate investors with the capital needed to acquire, renovate, and profitably sell distressed properties. In NYC's competitive renovation market, the ability to move quickly on opportunities and access reliable construction funding separates successful flippers from those who miss deals. Hard Money Lenders of New York specializes in fix-and-flip financing, structuring loans that cover both acquisition and renovation costs while preserving your cash for contingencies and the next project.

Our fix-and-flip loans typically fund 70-75% of the after-repair value, covering the purchase price plus renovation expenses. This structure minimizes your out-of-pocket investment while providing sufficient capital for comprehensive property improvements. Whether you're renovating a Brooklyn townhouse, updating a Queens condo, or gut-rehabbing a Staten Island single-family home, our loan programs accommodate diverse project scopes and property types.

The New York market offers abundant fix-and-flip opportunities across all five boroughs. Brooklyn continues generating renovation projects as neighborhoods gentrify and housing stock ages. Queens provides volume opportunities with diverse housing types and price points. The Bronx offers entry-level projects for newer investors while Manhattan commands premium prices for luxury renovations. Our lending team understands each submarket's dynamics, helping you evaluate deals and structure appropriate financing.

We recognize that successful house flipping requires more than capital, it demands speed, reliability, and partnership. Our streamlined application process delivers preliminary approval within 24 hours, enabling you to submit confident offers. Our draw process releases renovation funds quickly after inspections, keeping your contractors paid and your project on schedule. We act as your financial partner, supporting your growth from your first flip to your fiftieth.

Fix-and-flip loans serve the complete spectrum of renovation investment strategies in New York. Single-family home renovations represent the most common application, funding the acquisition and comprehensive updating of detached houses, row homes, and townhouses. These projects typically involve kitchen and bathroom renovations, flooring replacement, system upgrades, and aesthetic improvements that maximize resale value.

Condominium and co-op renovations target individual units within multi-unit buildings. These projects require careful coordination with building management, compliance with alteration agreements, and specialized contractor expertise. Our loans accommodate the unique requirements of NYC apartment renovations, including working capital for assessments and carrying costs during the sales process.

Multi-family renovations transform duplexes, triplexes, and small apartment buildings into higher-value assets. These projects generate returns through increased rental income, property appreciation, or conversion to condominium ownership. Our loans support both the renovation work and operating deficit during the lease-up period following improvements.

Luxury renovations target high-end properties in premium neighborhoods like Brooklyn Heights, Park Slope, Manhattan Beach, and Forest Hills. These projects feature premium finishes, custom millwork, smart home technology, and designer fixtures. Our lending programs accommodate the higher costs and extended timelines of luxury renovations.

Historic property renovations address Brooklyn brownstones, Queens Victorians, and other architecturally significant properties requiring specialized restoration work. These projects demand contractors experienced with historic preservation techniques and approval from landmark preservation commissions. Our loans support the additional costs and documentation requirements of historic renovations.

Distressed property acquisitions target foreclosures, short sales, estate sales, and properties with significant deferred maintenance. Banks rarely finance these opportunities, making hard money essential for investors who specialize in challenging properties requiring extensive rehabilitation.

Fix-and-flip investors face numerous financing obstacles when working with traditional lenders. Banks rarely finance properties in poor condition, requiring habitable properties with functioning systems. Seasoning requirements prevent refinancing recently acquired properties even when substantial value has been added. Construction loan disbursement processes create cash flow problems, with slow draw schedules delaying contractor payments and project completion.

Personal guarantee requirements expose investors to unlimited liability if projects underperform. Debt-to-income ratio calculations penalize investors with multiple projects simultaneously. Prepayment penalties eliminate flexibility to sell when market conditions favor quick exits. Documentation requirements demand extensive renovation experience, excluding newer investors from financing.

Our fix-and-flip loans address each challenge. We finance properties in any condition. We accommodate rapid refinancing after value creation. Our draw process releases funds within 48 hours of inspection approval. We structure appropriate recourse based on experience and equity contribution. We welcome newer investors with appropriate mentorship and conservative initial projects.

Our fix-and-flip lending begins with deal evaluation support. We review potential acquisitions, offering preliminary opinions on value, renovation budgets, and after-repair value estimates. This guidance helps you avoid overpaying and ensures your projects generate appropriate returns.

Once you identify a target property, our streamlined application process delivers approval within 24-48 hours. We require the purchase contract, renovation scope of work with detailed budget, contractor information, and proof of liquid funds for down payment and reserves. Unlike banks, we do not require tax returns, employment verification, or extensive personal financial documentation.

Our loan structure typically provides acquisition funding at closing, with renovation funds held in escrow and released through a draw schedule. You submit draw requests as work progresses, with funds released after inspection confirms completed work. This process ensures contractor payment and project completion while protecting all parties.

We assign dedicated loan officers familiar with renovation lending to guide you through each project. Our inspection network provides rapid draw verification, keeping your project moving. We offer extension options when projects require additional time, and we work with you to resolve challenges that arise during renovation.
