The first thing you’d need to get approved for a Private Money loan is to have at least 15% to 20% down payment in the case of a purchase, or substantial equity in the property if you’re looking for a cash-out refinance.
The higher the down payment or property equity you have, the more likely you will be approved. We will also look at your credit score and cash reserves. We look at this to assess if you can make payments on time and pay for other costs like taxes, insurance, etc. Last but not least, we will look at the borrower’s experience in real estate.
If this is the first time that the borrower is going to finance investment real estate, he or she might face more scrutiny than a borrower with years of experience in these types of deals.
Working with Fix and Flip lenders like Crismar Funding is a straightforward process tailored for investors.

How Does A Private Money Loan Work?
A Private money loan works as an asset-based loan, meaning that while Private money lenders take into consideration the investor’s credit score, this is not a crucial factor in determining his or her eligibility. Instead, lenders require that you use real estate property as collateral.
They use the price of the property to calculate the risk of the loan and the Loan To Value (LTV). On the other hand, real estate developers, investors, and flippers use Private money to get the required funds to close time-sensitive deals where they can get a property at a low price, flip (fix) it, raise the value of the property and then sell or rent at a profit.
The main reason real estate investors choose to apply for a private money loan is that private lenders can fund the deal within a week–or less if the borrower meets all the qualifications.
PML’s work great on short-term flips and rehabs, or for first-time purchases, yet on longer-term investments, PML’s are not the best idea.
Private money loans also work similarly to bridge loans. They both have similar criteria for lending. Bridge loans are solely for buying real estate properties or investment properties that don’t qualify for traditional lending programs. A bridge loan can also be used as a down payment for a new home when the buyer hasn’t sold their current house yet.
Bridge loans can be issued by traditional and private lenders, and PMLs are only issued by private lenders, like Crismar Funding.
