Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at (509) 919-1037 if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Private money, or sometimes called hard money, is a term used to describe any financing option which is an alternative to commercial bank lending.  The term hard money is used because tangible "hard" assets are taken as collateral.  Due to short closing times, deal complication, or risk, private money lenders can step in to provide funds where conventional lenders cannot. 


Although private money lenders' rates and fees are typically higher than conventional lenders, many times it is the availability of funds not the cost which is important to the private money borrower. Private money is meant to be short-term bridge financing to help you get into a deal, carry the deal while you work on it, and should be taken out relatively quickly. 


  

There are many advantages to using Mountain Capital for private money, including: 


Fast Underwriting/approval
Because we approve and fund most loans in-house, we can approve a loan and issue a funding letter in a matter of hours, instead of several weeks with a conventional lender.  We can close within a matter of days.

 

Flexible Programs
You can use the equity that you have built up in other real estate to help you purchase and renovate your next project, instead of having to use large amounts of your own cash.  Borrower's typically do not come with a great deal of cash at closing.

 

Experienced Investors
We know the Pacific Northwest better than anyone. We are experienced investors and lenders and can help guide you throughout the process and avoid many pitfalls.  We want to make money with you.

 

Access to Capital
Conventional banks have tightened up on their underwriting, making it difficult to impossible to come up with the extra capital you need to get your deal done. We are asset-based lenders who are focused on the real estate and the viability of your project as opposed to credit score or the collapse of the sub-prime market. When we show up at the table your deal gets done!

 

Industry Contacts
As a result of our extended experience making commercial real estate loans, we have many industry contacts to help you along the way. We have pre-approved general contractors, relationships with conventional lenders to help you refinance, and recommended real estate agents to help you maximize the value of your investment and avoid painful pitfalls along the way.
 

Property List
We have a list of as-is commercial properties ready for rehab, which are pre-approved for financing.

 

Construction Projects
We have a major understanding of the permit and construction process.   


While underwriting is based on many factors and varies on a case-by-case basis, our general criteria include the following:
 


Financially Successful Project
We want you to make money on the deal. If we think you can, we'll probably fund the loan. If we think you can't, we'll tell you and we'll tell you why we think you may want to reconsider doing the deal.

 

"Skin In The Game"
While we are eager to work with you and be a financial "partner" on your real estate investments, it's your deal and you get the upside. We just get our money back plus fees and interest.  As a result, we need to be comfortable that you are motivated to see the project through completion and have the ability to see the project through.  One of our competitive advantages is our ability to use existing equity in borrower's additional collateral so that they don't have to come to the table with large sums of cash.

 

Exit Strategy
Whether you're going to sell the property or rent and refinance, we want to make sure that you're set up to succeed.  We'll help you during the renovation process or business cycle to make sure that you're going to have a marketable product for sale at completion and can refer you to professional real estate agents to ensure that you get top dollar on your investment. For rentals, we'll help you to optimize your rent and put you in touch with commercial lenders who will help you refinance your investment .
