Residential Property Loans in Santa Barbara, CA
Get fast residential hard money loans in Santa Barbara. Asset-based lending for investment properties with quick closings. Apply today!
Santa Barbara's residential real estate market presents exceptional opportunities for investors who can move quickly when deals materialize. Whether you are acquiring single-family homes in Montecito, multi-family properties in Goleta, or rental investments throughout the Santa Barbara area, traditional financing often moves too slowly to secure competitive opportunities. Unlike conventional mortgage lenders who focus primarily on borrower credit scores and documented income, our residential property loans are asset-based, meaning we evaluate the property value and potential rather than your personal financial history. This approach allows us to approve loans in days rather than weeks. From fix-and-flip projects to long-term rental acquisitions, our residential hard money financing solutions are designed to meet the diverse needs of real estate investors throughout Santa Barbara County.
Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can I get approved for a residential hard money loan?
Our streamlined approval process typically provides preliminary loan approval within 24-48 hours of receiving your application and property information. Once approved, we can close most residential property loans within 7-10 days, compared to 30-45 days for traditional financing.
What loan-to-value ratios do you offer for residential properties?
We typically lend up to 75% of the property after-repair value for renovation projects, or up to 70% of current value for rental acquisitions. The specific LTV depends on the property location, condition, and your experience as an investor.
Can I get a residential hard money loan with credit challenges?
Yes, our asset-based lending approach focuses primarily on the property value rather than your credit score. While we do review credit history, imperfect credit will not automatically disqualify you. We consider your overall financial situation and investment experience.
What types of residential properties do you finance?
We finance single-family homes, multi-family properties (duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes), condominiums, and townhomes throughout Santa Barbara County. We lend on both investment properties and second homes. Properties can be in any condition.
What are the typical terms for residential hard money loans?
Our residential loans typically feature 12-month terms with interest-only payments, though we can structure longer terms up to 36 months depending on your strategy. Interest rates range from 10-12% depending on loan-to-value ratio and property type.
