Finally after 3 years trying to find a lender that do loans in properties below 100k last week I connected with a lender that do loans for fix & flips and convert those loans in longer terms for rentals. For me is a huge advantage because I invest in the cities of Macon & Columbus in the state of GA and always struggle finding lenders that do loans below 100k with decent rate and terms and without a blanket loan.

The fees and rate are what kills most of these deals..I guess it can work if the property is a cash cow.

Congrats!
So do they do DSCR loans below $100k as well? I know of a program that will lend down to $50k loan amount that I use for my OH/AL clients but am always intrigued to hear of how other people are doing it.

Hey Guillermo!
We do have DSCR options with no minimum loan amount without LTV restrictions or hits to the rate. That would be best after rehab of course, not for the flip, but if you feel like that might be useful to look at feel free to reach out.

We do individual DSCR loans down to 75k value. For flips, 50k loan size as long as ARV is 100K. Erik does have a really good point though. Since some costs are fixed, it can be a higher percentage in a lower loan amount. A regular for us across the Midwest and in certain southern states.

Some DSCR lenders will go down to a $75K value and a $50K loan amount. It's the same work to do a $50K loan as a $500K loan so the fees will be higher due to the loan amount but will still be much lower than what a lender or broker gets paid on a higher loan amount. This is with 20% down minimum depending on the borrower's middle mortgage FICO score.
Credit score- the higher the better. 760-780+ generally gets best pricing for investment property loans with most lenders. From there every 20 point increment affect pricing differently. So for example, a 761 credit score will be in the 760-779 credit category, then going down to 740-759 and so on.
I have not seen a lender that will go down under a $100K for a fix and flip loan. I've seen down to a $150K loan amount between financing up to 90% of the purchase price and 100% of the rehab on draws. Happy to connect to discuss further.
