Loan Examples
The following loans are for education purposes only. They do not represent actual loans executed by Rubicon Mortgage Fund.
Loan Example 1
Rene takes a fix-and-flip loan from Rubicon Mortgage Fund in order to remodel a condo to flip in Los Angeles, CA. The sales price of the property is $310,000. The loan-to-value (LTV) on the note is 60%. This means Rene will bring 40% of the purchase price to closing and the principle will be $186,000 on the loan. The deal also has these features: 1) a 18 month term, 2) a 8% interest-only note, and 3) a five percent origination fee.
Rene will have to contribute $124,000 to closing (40% on the 60% loan-to-value), plus he will have to pay the $9,300 origination fee. The lender will collect $1,240 in monthly interest payments from the borrower. This is calculated by taking the full loan value of $186,000, multiplying by the 8% rate of interest, and then dividing that amount by 12. If Rene sells the remodeled project for $465,000 at the end of the 18 month term, his total profit (not accounting for remodeling costs) would be $123,380. This is calculated by taking the purchase price ($465,000) and subtracting the original note amount ($186,000), the origination cost ($9,300), the money he brought to closing ($124,000), and the total interest payments ($22,320).
Loan Example 2
Lydia locates a townhouse in Los Angeles, CA to renovate and re-sell. Because she does not have enough cash to buy the property outright, she takes a fix and flip loan from Rubicon Mortgage Fund with the following parameters:
$360,000 sales price
55% loan to value (LTV)
12 month term
12% interest rate
2% origination feeAfter the rehab project is complete, if Lydia sells the house for $450,000, the outcome would be the following:
$450,000 sales price
- $198,000 principle (55% LTV)
- $162,000 down payment (45% on 55% LTV)
- $3,960 origination points (2% of the $198,000 principle)
- $23,760 total interest paid (12 months x 12% interest)
-----------------------
= $62,280 total profit (does not include taxes or rehab costs) -

Pretty terrible service. Got into an agreement on terms for a property with Rubicon. Myself (buyer) and seller went ahead with Rubicon terms. Rubicon (Max Khorasani and Lance Hillstrom) went to see the property and reduced the valuation by 100k. This made the deal fall through... That wasn't the main problem. But when it came time to refund my initial $4000 deposit with Rubicon, they only sent $2,500 back claiming that management decided it cost them $1,500 to work on my loan and drive to see the property.I never completed an application at the time, and it's a 1 hr drive from Lafayette to the property.I asked for a break down for why they think $1,500 was fair, and they argued it was a rough estimate by management.Essentially, Rubicon unilaterally decided they'll keep back $1,500 of my hard earned money even though they're the reason for the deal no going through.It's sad they're a short sighted mortgage company ripping people off their money... Being penny wise pound foolish.. Sad. I regret knowing them and doing business with them.
