Deal Summary

Secured Capital Lending, a direct hard money lender, funded a $655,000 1st lien position construction completion loan for a single-family home in the Glassell Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, CA. The property value was estimated at $950,000 so our loan-to-value was 68%. We paid off a previous loan balance of $501,000. We funded 45% of the total $292,900 construction budget. The completed value was estimated at $1,125,000 so our loan-to-completed value was 58%. The Borrower started the project with her own funds but due to inflation and construction costs going up, their budget was increased, and they were not able to finish on their own. They came to us mid-construction during the framing stage, and we were able to quickly underwrite and approve the loan. We ended up paying off her previous lender and gave her the entire completion funds to complete the project. It required us to get out of our comfort zone and do a little more work to make sure there was no hair left on the deal. We eventually got comfortable with the project and got the job done. The subject property was approximately 850 square feet set in a 4,640-square-foot lot. The Borrower had excellent credit. They plan to sell the property as an exit strategy. The interest rate was 11%, and we charged 2% origination points. The loan term was set at 12 months. This SFR construction loan was funded in February 2024.
