Hard Money Loans now more Popular
With the major banks making it harder to get access to capital, Hard Money Loans might just become the way to go. This may be a new term for many Calgarians, but all it really means is quick and easier money at higher interest rates. Like any mortgage or loan now a days, it is secured against your home. This is generally not for a long term solution but can be a great tool to get money quickly.
The main advantages of a Hard Money Loan are that it is quicker and very easy to qualify for. They don’t really look at your credit or job but they look at the value and the amount of equity you have in your home. Equity is the value of your home minus any mortgage you have left on the property. You can sometimes get access to money within 24 hours. The main disadvantages are that it is a little more expensive. Usually it is 2-5 % set up fee and then depending on your terms you are looking from 9% - 19% a month. Many who won’t look at the option of a Hard Money Loan because of they typically higher interest rates. If you are using this for investment purposes then you just have to calculate what your Rate of Return is and then see if it is worth paying for it. If using the private financing will allow you to make $50,000 and it costs you $10,000 is it still worth using?
