California home financing

Hard money and private financing in California

Review the exit plan as carefully as the initial financing.

Hard money or private financing may be relevant to certain property and investment scenarios. Sasha can help you identify the transaction details a lender needs and the costs and risks to compare.

Start with your general goal. Email opens your email app; send your message from there. Please use the application portal for financial documents.

Define the purpose and timeline

Start with the property, intended use, financing amount and reason for the loan. Occupancy and whether the transaction is consumer or business purpose affect which options and rules apply. Explain the actual occupancy so consumer-purpose and investment financing are evaluated appropriately.

Understand the full terms

Review the interest rate, points, fees, payment structure, term, extension conditions and any balloon or prepayment provisions. A shorter process or a property-focused review does not remove documentation, appraisal or approval requirements.

Build a realistic repayment plan

If repayment depends on a sale or later refinance, evaluate what happens if timing, value or qualification changes. A future refinance is never guaranteed. Have enough information to compare the proposed loan with other available paths.

Questions before we talk

Is closing speed guaranteed?

No. Timing depends on the property, documentation, lender review and transaction conditions.

Can I assume I can refinance at the end?

No. Future financing depends on the borrower, property, market and lender requirements at that time.
