100% Rehab Funding: Scaling Your Fix and Flip Business

For many real estate investors, the bottleneck to growth isn't a lack of opportunities: it’s a lack of accessible liquidity. You find the perfect distressed property, you have the vision for the renovation, but your capital is tied up in your current project. This is where the traditional lending model fails the modern developer.

At Credo Group Capital, we recognize that speed & capital efficiency are the two primary drivers of a successful real estate portfolio. That is why we have engineered our Fix & Flip loan programs to provide 90% of the acquisition cost and 100% of the rehab budget. This high-leverage model isn't just about borrowing more; it’s about doing more with the capital you already have.

The 90/100 Model: A Blueprint for Scaling

Scaling a fix and flip business requires a shift in mindset from "project-to-project" to "portfolio-wide." When you are required to put down 20-30% on an acquisition and fund 100% of the renovation out of pocket, your cash is quickly exhausted.

By utilizing our 90% acquisition & 100% rehab funding, you drastically reduce your initial "cash-to-close."

Consider the math: On a $400,000 acquisition with a $100,000 rehab budget, a traditional lender might require $120,000+ in upfront capital. With our model, your acquisition entry is $40,000, and the $100,000 renovation is fully funded by us. This preserves over $80,000 of your liquidity: capital that can be used as the down payment on your next two deals.

Liquidity is Your Greatest Asset

In a competitive market, cash is king, but liquidity is the kingdom. Our goal is to ensure you never have to pass on a deal because your funds are "stuck in the walls" of another house.

Our funding structure allows you to:

  • Manage Multiple Projects Simultaneously: Spread your risk and your effort across three projects instead of one.

  • Buffer for Market Volatility: Keep more cash in reserves to handle unexpected holding costs or material price fluctuations.

  • Move Faster: With less of your own money on the line for the rehab, you can authorize contractor draws and keep the project moving without waiting for personal funds to clear.

We stand by our clients as partners, not just lenders. We provide the institutional-grade capital you need with the boutique, personal service you deserve. Every borrower is assigned a dedicated account rep to navigate the application process and ensure your draws are processed with the utmost care.

Speed: Closing in 7-10 Days

In real estate, a deal delayed is often a deal lost. Sellers are looking for certainty and speed. When you approach a seller or a wholesaler with a Credo Group Capital pre-approval, you are coming to the table with a partner known for 7-10 day closings.

We utilize robust web-based technology to streamline our underwriting. This allows us to move from Quick App to a firm commitment faster than traditional wholesale channels. Our "whatever it takes" attitude means we focus on the asset and your vision, not just a mountain of paperwork.

The "No Payment" Advantage

Cash flow management is often the most difficult part of a heavy renovation project. Paying monthly interest while also paying contractors can strain even the most experienced developers.

To solve this, we offer "no payment" options on select Fix & Flip programs. This allows you to roll the interest into the loan, preserving your monthly cash flow for operational needs. By the time the house hits the market and closes, you pay off the loan and the interest from the proceeds of the sale. This is a game-changer for investors looking to scale rapidly without the monthly debt-service burden.

Technical Precision: LTV & ARV

We finance properties up to 75% of the After Repair Value (ARV). This ensures that while we are providing high leverage, the project remains grounded in sound financial reality. Our experience across 50+ years of collective industry knowledge allows us to accurately value your vision. Whether it's a single-family residence, a 1-4 unit property, or a multi-family value-add, we understand the nuances of the local markets nationwide.

Our loan programs include:

  • Bridge Loans: 5-7 day closings for those "must-have" properties.

  • Fix & Flip: 90% Acq / 100% Rehab with rates as low as 8-10%.

  • Ground Up Construction: Up to 80% LTV for developers building from the dirt up.

  • CRE Permanent Financing: Wholesale access to Fannie/Freddie for long-term holds.
