Loan Example 1

Forest Grove Finance Group issues a hard money loan to Debbie for a renovation project in the East Jacksonville neighborhood of Jacksonville, FL, on a house that is listed for $160,000. The lender agrees to write a note with a 50% loan-to-value (LTV) so they will extend $80,000 on the house. The parameters of the loan also include a two percent origination fee which is to be paid at closing and a 6 month, interest-only note with a 9% rate of interest.

Accordingly, the borrower will have to contribute a $80,000 down payment plus pay a $1,600 origination fee. Forest Grove Finance Group will collect $600 in monthly interest from the Debbie . This is computed by taking the total loan value of $80,000, multiplying that by the 9% rate of interest, and then dividing that number by 12. Debbie 's intention is to complete the project by the end of the 6 months and sell it for $240,000. If she succeeds she will earn a gross profit of $74,800 ($240,000 price - $80,000 principle - $80,000 cash paid at closing - $1,600 origination points - $3,600 in total interest.

Loan Example 2

Marcus locates a house in the Fairfax subdivision of Jacksonville, FL to renovate and resell. Because he does not have enough cash to buy the property outright, he takes a hard money loan from West Shore Investment Group with the following parameters:

$330,000 sales price
85% loan to value (LTV)
12 month term
9% interest rate
4% origination fee

If Marcus accomplishes his goal of a $445,500 sales price, the final numbers of the deal would be as follows:

$445,500 sales price
- $280,500 principle (85% LTV)
- $49,500 cash paid at closing (15% on 85% LTV)
- $11,220 origination fee (4% of the $280,500 principle amount)
- $25,245 total interest paid (12 months x 9% interest)
-----------------------
= $79,035 total profit (doesn't include taxes or rehab costs)
