FAQ
Fix & Flip Loan FAQs
What is a fix and flip loan? ▼
A fix and flip loan is short-term financing (6–24 months) that covers both the purchase price and renovation costs of an investment property. It's designed for investors who buy distressed properties, renovate them, and sell for a profit. These loans close faster than conventional financing with less documentation required.
How much can I borrow for a fix and flip? ▼
Our lenders finance from $150K to $5M+. Most programs offer up to 90–95% of the purchase price and up to 100% of renovation costs, subject to an LTV cap based on the After Repair Value (ARV) of the property — typically 65–75% ARV.
Do I need a W-2 or tax returns? ▼
No. Fix and flip lenders use asset-based underwriting. They evaluate the deal — the property's purchase price, rehab budget, and ARV — not your personal income. Self-employed investors and those without W-2 income qualify regularly.
What credit score do I need? ▼
The minimum credit score is 620. Stronger credit, more experience and a larger down payment improve leverage and pricing.
How fast can I close a fix and flip loan? ▼
Most fix and flip loans in our network close in 5–10 business days. Expedited closings in 5 days are available for experienced investors with clean deals and organized documentation.
Is experience required? ▼
No. First-time flippers can qualify. More experience typically results in better rates and leverage. Programs exist for all experience levels — from first-time investors to those with 50+ flips completed.
Can one loan cover both the purchase and the rehab? ▼
Yes. A fix-and-flip loan funds up to 90% of the purchase at closing and holds back up to 100% of the rehab budget, released in draws as work is completed and inspected.
Is 100% financing available for fix and flip? ▼
Programs finance up to 100% of the rehab budget and up to 90% of the purchase price, which can total more than 90% of the project cost. You still bring a down payment, closing costs, carrying costs and working capital to fund each phase before its draw.
Do first-time flippers qualify? ▼
Yes. First-time investors are placed regularly, typically at somewhat lower leverage and with more attention on the scope of work, the contractor and the after-repair value.
How fast can a fix and flip loan close? ▼
Typically 5 to 10 days once the file is complete, depending on the capital source, title and the valuation.

Investment Property Specialists

We don't do owner-occupied mortgages or first-time homebuyer programs. 100% of our focus is business-purpose loans for real estate investors. That specialization means we understand DSCR, LTC, ARV, BRRRR, and portfolio consolidation in ways general mortgage companies don't.

⚡

Speed Where It Matters

Bridge loans in 5–10 days. Fix & Flip in 5–10 days. DSCR in 14–21 days. We pre-qualify you in minutes with no hard credit pull, and we don't chase W-2s or tax returns on DSCR. When timing matters, we move at the pace of your deal.

How we handle specific fix and flip scenarios

Four questions that decide most flips. Short version here; the full treatment is one click away.

How much cash do I need to close?

Who fits
Any flipper — this is the number that decides whether the deal is real.
What can disqualify it
Assuming the loan covers everything. It covers a percentage of total cost; you fund the gap, points, third-party costs, and the rehab between draws.
What you'll need
Purchase contract, itemized rehab budget, ARV comps, and liquidity statements showing the gap plus reserves.
What happens next
Run the ARV and cash-to-close calculator. On a $180K purchase with $65K rehab at 90% of cost, expect roughly $32K at closing before carry.
ARV and cash-to-close calculator →

First flip vs. experienced investor

Who fits
Both. Experience changes the terms, not the answer.
What can disqualify it
No completed projects combined with no licensed contractor, thin reserves, or a rehab scope you cannot document.
What you'll need
A licensed and insured GC bid, a line-item scope, and reserves — first-timers generally see lower leverage and more scrutiny on the budget.
What happens next
Several capital sources write first-time flippers; several require two or three completed projects. We structure accordingly.
First-time flipper financing →

Rehab budget larger than the purchase price

Who fits
Investors in low-basis markets — Cleveland, Dayton, Detroit, Memphis — where a $60K house needs $80K of work.
What can disqualify it
Many national lenders cap rehab at roughly half the purchase price. The deal itself is often fine; the credit box is not.
What you'll need
A detailed scope by trade, contractor bids, a draw schedule, and ARV comps that support the finished value.
What happens next
The loan sizes on total project cost and ARV, not purchase price. Draws release after inspection. Several sources write this routinely.
When rehab exceeds purchase price →

Sell the flip, or refinance and rent it?

Who fits
Anyone whose resale market could soften before the work is done.
What can disqualify it
Assuming the refinance is guaranteed. It is a second underwrite against rent and appraised value, and it can fail where the flip succeeded.
What you'll need
For the refinance path: an executed lease or rent schedule, seasoning documentation, and a DSCR of 1.0 or better on the finished property.
What happens next
Underwrite both exits before you buy. A fix-to-rent structure lets you decide at completion instead of at purchase.
Fix to rent financing →

Deals we have actually structured

Real scenarios, written up in full.

CASE STUDY
$1.2M Indiana fix and flip
A rehab-heavy project in a low-basis market where renovation approached acquisition cost.
CASE STUDY
A 0.92 DSCR cash-out three lenders declined
How a property that failed the 1.0 ratio still got a cash-out refinance closed.

What “100% financing” actually means on a flip

Fix-and-flip programs finance up to 90% of the purchase price and up to 100% of the rehab budget. That is not the same as 100% of the total project, and it is not cash-free. Here is how the money moves on a hypothetical deal.

WORKED EXAMPLE — HYPOTHETICAL, NOT A QUOTE
Purchase price$200,000
Rehab budget$60,000
Total project cost$260,000
Loan: 90% of purchase$180,000
Loan: 100% of rehab (released in draws)$60,000
Total loan$240,000 (92% of cost)
Your down payment (10% of purchase)$20,000
After-repair value (ARV)$360,000
Total loan as a share of ARV67%


Cash you still need: the down payment, closing costs and lender fees, interest during the hold, a contingency for rehab overruns (10–15% is common), and working capital to fund each phase of work before the draw that reimburses it. Most programs also cap the total loan at a percentage of ARV; the capital source sets that limit, and it can be the binding one on a light-rehab deal.

ARV calculator →Rehab cost estimator →Carrying costs →

How rehab draws work

First flip? What changes

First-time flippers are placed regularly. Expect a somewhat lower leverage, more attention on the scope of work and the contractor, and a stronger case for the after-repair value. A clear budget, a licensed contractor and comparable sales for the ARV do more for approval than anything else. See first-time fix and flip loans.

What to have ready: the address and purchase contract, your rehab budget or scope of work, the expected ARV with comparable sales, your credit range, your flip experience and the exit plan — sell, or refinance into a DSCR loan and hold.

Is a fix and flip loan the same as a hard money loan?

Largely, yes. A fix and flip loan is a hard money loan — asset-based short-term financing underwritten on the property and the deal rather than on your personal income. Investors searching for hard money lenders, hard money loans for flipping houses, or private money lenders are describing the same product. The term “hard money” historically referred to expensive last-resort capital; today it simply means the loan is secured by the asset and priced on the deal. What matters is the leverage against total project cost, how quickly renovation draws release, and whether the lender will write your property type — not what the product is called.

Deals other lenders turn away

National fix and flip lenders publish tight eligibility boxes because they fund from one balance sheet. Common exclusions across the largest platforms include mixed-use, commercial, rural and agricultural-zoned property, manufactured homes, properties under 800 or over 3,000 square feet, homes older than 90 years, five or more bedrooms, and any deal where the rehab budget exceeds roughly half the purchase price. Several also decline entire states outright.

Because LendingStreet works across more than 30 capital sources rather than a single set of guidelines, those exclusions are not a single answer. A rehab-heavy deal in Cleveland where renovation exceeds acquisition is routine at some sources and an automatic decline at others. A pre-1900 rowhome in Philadelphia, a rural property on five acres, a 5-to-8 unit building, a condotel, a first-time flipper with a licensed general contractor — each of these is placeable somewhere and unplaceable elsewhere.

The practical point: a decline usually describes one lender’s box, not your deal. If you have been turned down, the useful next step is placing the same file against a different set of guidelines rather than changing the deal.
