Georgia hard money loan FAQs
What is a hard money loan in Georgia?
A Georgia hard money loan is short-term, asset-based financing secured by investment real estate. Approval is driven by the property's cost basis and after-repair value rather than your personal income, which is why these loans close in days instead of weeks.
How much do I need to put down on a Georgia hard money loan?
Most Georgia fix & flip borrowers bring 10–20% of the purchase price. We finance up to 90% of purchase and 100% of the rehab budget for qualified investors with experience.
What are hard money rates in Georgia?
Georgia hard money rates currently start around 9.25% for well-qualified investors, with points depending on leverage, experience and term. Final pricing is quoted on the specific deal.
How fast can a Georgia hard money loan close?
Typical Georgia closings are 7–14 days from a signed term sheet. The pace is usually set by appraisal and title, not underwriting.
Do you lend to first-time flippers in Georgia?
Yes. First-time investors in Georgia are eligible with slightly lower leverage, a solid contractor bid and reserves for carrying costs.
Can I refinance my Georgia hard money loan into a long-term loan?
Yes. Once the property is renovated and rented, we can refinance you into a 30-year DSCR loan — the standard BRRRR exit — without moving to a new lender.
