Loan Examples

The following loans are for education purposes only. They do not represent actual loans executed by Hard Money Atlanta.

Loan Example 1

Kelly is a house flipper in Atlanta, GA. He finds an older property for sale and wants to remodel it and flip it for a profit. The property costs $250,000 but he does not have the full amount so he takes a hard money loan with Hard Money Atlanta. The borrower will have to contribute 20% of the purchase price in cash to the closing based on a 80% loan to value set by the lender. This makes the principle amount from Hard Money Atlanta $200,000. The parameters of the note also stipulate a five point origination fee which will be paid at the closing and a 6 month, interest-only note with a 12% interest rate.

On top of the $10,000 origination fee, Kelly will also fund $50,000 of the purchase with his own money, or 20% of the purchase price. After the loan closes, he will have to pay Hard Money Atlanta $2,000 in monthly interest fees, or 12% multiplied by $200,000 divided by 12 months in the year. Assuming he sells the renovated house for $362,500 at the end of the 6 month term, his total profit (not accounting for rehab expenses) would be $90,500. This is calculated by taking the purchase price ($362,500) and subtracting the principle ($200,000), the origination cost ($10,000), the money he contributed to closing ($50,000), and the total interest expenses ($12,000).

Loan Example 2

Carmen finds a property in Atlanta, GA to renovate and sell. Since she does not have enough cash to buy the property outright, she takes a fix and flip loan from Hard Money Atlanta with the following parameters:

$180,000 sales price
60% loan to value (LTV)
6 month term
13% interest rate
5% origination fee

Based on a $216,000 sales price after the 6 month term, the numbers for the project would look like this:

$216,000 sales price
- $108,000 principle on note (60% LTV)
- $72,000 down payment (40% on 60% LTV)
- $5,400 origination fee (5% of the $108,000 principle amount)
- $7,020 total interest paid (6 months x 13% interest)
-----------------------
= $23,580 gross profit (doesn't include taxes or renovation costs)
