What are Hard Money Loans Used For In Georgia?

Real Estate Investors in Georgia use hard money loans to purchase, rehab, and construct investment properties.
A hard money loan is an “asset-based” loan in which the loan amount is based on the as-is value and after repair value of a property as well as the credit scores of the borrowing company’s owners.
Hard money loans allow Georgia real estate investors to secure financing for fix and flips, ground-up construction, and rental properties through an LLC or a Corp without using their personal income.
For most hard money loans, investors will have to bring a 10%-20% down payment and can use the hard money loan to finance the remainder of their project.
As Georgia real estate investors acquire more experience, hard money lenders like Ridge Street will increase their leverage and require less cash at the closing table.
