Gold Quest Group www.GoldQuestGroup.net is a hard money lender located in Houston, Texas.
A hard money loan is a type of asset-based loan financing in which a borrower receives funds secured by the value of a parcel of real estate. Hard money loans are typically issued at higher interest rates than conventional commercial or residential property loans and are almost never issued by a commercial bank or other deposit institution. Hard money is similar to a bridge loan which usually has similar criteria for lending as well as cost to the borrowers. The primary difference is that a bridge loan often refers to a commercial property or investment property that may be in transition and does not yet qualify for traditional financing.
Many hard money mortgages are made by private investors, generally in their local areas. Usually the credit score of the borrower is not important, as the loan is secured by the value of the collateral property. Typically, the maximum loan to value (LTV) ratio is 65-70%. That is, if the property is worth $100,000, the lender would advance $65,000-70,000 against it. This low LTV provides added security for the lender, in case the borrower does not pay and they have to foreclose on the property.
Home Equity Loan - Equity is defined as the monetary value of a property or business beyond any amounts owed on it in mortgages, claims, liens, etc. In simpler terms, home equity is how much house you have earned.
Equity is the difference between what your house is worth and what you owe on it. For example, if your house is worth $120,000 and you owe $100,000, your equity is $20,000. You can get a home equity loan, depending on your credit rating and a number of other factors, for the $20,000 that you have built up in equity.
Construction Loan - This type of loan is temporary and used for construction of buildings and homes. A construction loan also gives the contractor small amounts of money over the construction period. It is not till the job is completely finished when a permanent loan is used to pay off the rest of the construction.
