EquityMax Insight

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!

Frequently Asked Questions

a

 Do I need to hold properties in a business entity?

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.

a

Can EquityMax finance multiple properties simultaneously for borrowers?

Yes. EquityMax has multiple borrowers with several active loans in our portfolio.

a

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.  Feel free to reach out to us and we will connect you with various sellers of real estate throughout North Carolina.

a

I purchased a property “cash” last year in Montgomery, and need some additional funds. Can EquityMax Finance this transaction?

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.

a

Is Alabama a good condo market?

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.

a

Once I am prequalified, how quickly can I obtain a Proof of Funds letter?

EquityMax can send a borrower a Proof of Funds within 5 minutes of receipt of an acceptable, three-score credit report.  If a borrower does not have a recent report, he/she can request that Equitymax pull it.  For instructions, please click here.

a

What separates the Alabama market from other states?

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.

a

What types of real estate property does EquityMax lend on?

EquityMax lends on any form of residential property, including single family homes, 1-4 multi-unit properties, condominiums & townhomes, and even small apartment complexes (20 units or less).  We also lend on commercial property and industrial warehouses.
