The perfect solutions for your investment
At King James Lending, we are focused on designing loans for real estate investors that are simple, easy to understand, and profitable!
Flexible Fix and Flip Loans Built for Investors
Buy distressed properties, renovate them quickly, and resell for a profit. Fix-and-flip loans give you the capital to act fast and increase property value through targeted repairs.
These loans close in as little as 2–7 days—perfect for seizing time-sensitive deals like foreclosures or underpriced listings.
Unlock funding to repair and resell properties you already hold. A fix-and-flip refinance helps increase your return without starting from scratch.
Fix-and-flip loans are short-term, interest-only loans based on the property's value—not your credit score. That means quicker approvals and fewer roadblocks.
What is a fix & flip loan?
A short-term loan designed to help investors buy, renovate, and resell properties for a profit.
How is it different from a traditional mortgage?
These loans are short-term and based on the property's after-repair value (ARV), not your personal income.
Who can benefit?
Investors looking to buy distressed or undervalued properties, renovate them quickly, and sell for a return.
How fast can I get funded?
As fast as 2–7 days, so you can act on deals before the competition.
How much can I borrow?
Based on purchase price, renovation costs, and ARV. Each project is evaluated to maximize leverage, with a maximum of 70% LTV.
Do I need good credit?
Not necessarily. The property and deal strength matter most.
What are typical terms?
Usually 6–12 months, with interest-only payments and a balloon payment at the end.
Do I need a renovation plan?
Yes — a detailed scope of work with budget and timeline is required.
What are the costs?
Interest, points (origination fees), closing costs, and possible appraisal or inspection fees. We provide transparent fee breakdowns upfront.
How do I get started?
Contact us to review your project. We’ll handle the process so you can focus on the renovation.
