Frequently Asked Questions
A hard money loan is asset based financing through which a borrower gets a loan secured by the value of their non-owner occupied real estate. A hard money loan is ideal for those who want to borrow money easily without the need to go through hoops of income verification, tax returns, or credit checks. At elanCapital, if you have the value in your property, we are ready to finance you. Financing costs are higher than standard mortgages due to the simplicity of subsidizing and shorter term length of the hard cash credit (and risks involved due to not having to do income verification, credit checks and other diligence). Investors utilize hard cash when they can't or don't have sufficient financing from more routine sources. Normally their financials are complex, which get caught up in underwriting at banks and financial institutions but elanCapital streamlines the process.
It is simple to get started. First you click on our easy to use Loan Application. We will do an immediate evaluation and might ask for additional information. After we determine we can extend a loan to you we will email you an LOI (Letter of Intent) which will spell out in very simple English what our terms would be. If you are satisfied and would like to move forward with our offer, we will send you our loan package once signed and returned we can wire the funds. Loan close can occur as little as 5 business days from receiving the signed LOI.
