CLOSE IN 48 HOURS OR LESS! READY TO GET STARTED ON YOUR NEXT DEAL IN ALABAMA?
An experienced investor from California was beginning to purchase homes in Alabama. He had found a great opportunity to fix and flip a property in Prattville and wanted to leverage his current cash balance to purchase the property. EquityMax provided an acquisition loan on the home which prevented the borrower from exhausting all his financial resources. Following a successful renovation of the home, the borrower successfully sold the home for a handsome profit.
FIX AND FLIP |
---|
Location – Prattville, AL |
Loan Amount – $57,000 |
Purchase Price – $71,000 |
Loan Type – Purchase |
Term – 12 Months – 17 years (Borrower Option) |
Rehab Amount – $30,000 |
Actual Retail Value – $150,000 |
Profit – $50,000 |
In this particular case, our borrower (a first-time EquityMax client) had been working as a probate lead for months. Thankfully, over this time period, home values in Alabama had increased 9.4%. It was a great deal that required only minor touch up and no extensive renovation. Hence, when EquityMax closed this deal, the borrower quickly expedited his work on the property and sold the home to an end-user in 3 months. Not bad for 90 days’ work!

Yes. EquityMax has multiple borrowers with several active loans in our portfolio.
EquityMax does not require our borrowers to be a Corporation of LLC. We can originate loans to individuals, LLCs, Corporations, Land Trusts, and Self-Directed IRAs.
EquityMax not only lends to borrowers to purchase real estate, but often provides “cash out” refi loans to borrowers who may need extra capital to complete a project.
From what we have seen and experienced as lenders, Alabama’s price points for real estate offers a relatively low barrier for entry for new and experienced investors to purchase properties.
We find that other states have optimal markets for investing in condos, particularly states with more seasonal real estate (i.e. Florida). That doesn’t mean that markets catering to college students (i.e. Tuscaloosa) may be prime opportunities to rent condos as student housing.
EquityMax lends on real estate throughout the state of Alabama. We are not geographically limited as to where we will finance in the state.
EquityMax will lend in urban, suburban, rural, and agricultural areas of the state.
While EquityMax is not a licensed real estate broker in Alabama, we have partnered with several real estate companies, wholesalers, etc… that are actively selling real estate in your area.
