Rehab to Rent for SFR in San Mateo, California

At S&L Capital Group, we do everything in our power to make the closing process as smooth as possible. That resonated with an Escrow Officer we recently closed a deal with. Her words, not ours, “You make my life so easy on our files together.”

As such, this loan was referred to S&L Capital Group by a well-established Escrow officer in Valencia, CA. Our Borrower, a licensed Real Estate Agent had sourced the subject property off market and below market which is rare in today’s market. His plan was to put about $86,000 into the property in order to renovate and then refinance into a long-term loan to hold the subject property as a rental. His purchase price will leave sufficient equity to work a refinance once the rehab is complete.

Our Borrower requested a 6-month bridge loan for this San Mateo, CA purchase as he expects the process to take 3 months. Nothing goes as planned so we provided a 9-month bridge loan with no fund control and no interest guaranty. This SFR bridge loan was funded in July 2021.
