Origination: 2.5% of total loan

Deal Inputs

MAO Formula

(ARV * 70% - Rehab) * 95%

Purchase ≤ MAO → 100% purchase financing

Purchase > MAO → buyer funds the delta

Interest Model (12.5%/yr)

Interest accrues only on disbursed funds. Purchase amount is fully drawn at closing. Rehab holdback stays with the lender — interest adjusts upward with each draw. This calculator estimates rehab interest at the average outstanding balance (~50% of total over the hold period).

For illustration only. This calculator is not a commitment to lend. Title fees are optional and based on your estimate; builder's insurance, prepaid items, utilities, taxes, HOA, and final third-party invoices can materially change actual cash to close and net profit. Financing subject to underwriting.

How the math works

Understanding the numbers

Maximum Allowable Offer (MAO)

We cap at 70% of ARV, subtract the rehab holdback, then apply a 95% advance factor to the remainder: (ARV * 70% - Rehab) * 95%.

100% Purchase Financing

When the purchase price is at or below the MAO, we can fund 100% of the purchase price. The buyer isn't required to put money into the acquisition — only into closing costs.

Buyer Delta

If the purchase price exceeds the MAO, we still lend up to the MAO. The buyer funds the difference (delta) at closing in addition to normal closing costs.

Rehab Holdback

We fund 100% of the rehab budget through a holdback. Draws are reimbursed within 24 hours after approval — borrower submits photos, video, and invoice.

Origination Fee

2.5% of the total loan amount (purchase portion + rehab holdback). This is charged at closing and is the primary lender fee.

Fixed Closing Costs

$750 set up fee + $975 attorney fee + $650 appraisal (paid directly to appraiser at time of order). Survey and optional title fee estimate can be added in the calculator; builder's insurance varies by deal.

Note on title fees: Title and escrow fees can now be optionally included as your own estimate in the calculator inputs. Actual charges vary by title company and deal structure, and can often be negotiated with the seller.
