Finance Your Investment
Without Sacrificing Equity or Peace of Mind
You shouldn’t have to give up control — or beg for help — just to fund your next real estate win.
Avoid sharing equity with outside investors just to make the numbers work — this keeps 100% ownership in your hands.
No more hard money traps — skip the sky-high rates, junk fees, and predatory terms that eat up your profits.
Stop the awkward money conversations — no more asking friends, family, or partners to front your next project
Furnish interiors to command higher rent — increase tenant appeal and rental income from day one.
Add livable space — finish basements, garages, or attics to create extra units, bedrooms, or income streams.
Build an additional dwelling unit (ADU) — add a tiny home, casita, or guest unit to boost property value and cash flow.
Control your project timeline — get funded fast and move forward without red tape or investor delays.
Backed by a national lending team — speak directly to real people who understand how real estate investing works.
Get Funds Without Losing Equity & No Hard Or Soft Pull To Check Eligibility
This Isn’t Your Local Bank’s Loan Quiz
No SSN required. No credit pull. No risk. The info you share on this eligibility form is only used to check general eligibility against our banks loan programs — based on what you tell us. We never pull your credit (not even a soft pull), and we don’t ask for sensitive data like your Social Security number at this stage. Your information is never sold. If you decide to move forward, your banker will walk you through next steps and confirm before running any credit check. Until then, it’s 100% no-pressure, no-obligation.

💡 Smart Loan FAQs:
Answers to Know Before You Start
For first-time buyers, investors, and anyone ready to buy smarter — not harder.
What makes this different from what my local bank offers?
Most banks only offer one standard purchase loan — with strict rules, no creativity, and very little flexibility. Our Smart Loan works with nearly every loan option we offer, if you qualify. It gives you access to extra funding traditional lenders don’t offer — and they’ll usually tell you not to apply anywhere else until after your loan closes. That makes it harder to act once a lender sees you just took on a big mortgage. Our approach gives you more control, more options, and real buying power.
Is this part of my mortgage or a second loan?
No — this is not added onto your mortgage and it's not a second mortgage or home equity loan. The Smart Loan is a separate, unsecured loan that does not affect your primary mortgage, and can be used before, at, or after closing.
When do I get the money?
You can access funds before, at, or after closing — depending on when you qualify. Because it’s unsecured, the loan doesn’t rely on your home closing to be funded.
Do I have to use the funds right away?
Nope. You can access the funds when you’re ready — before, at, or after closing — and use them however you like, on your timeline.
What can I use the Smart Loan for?
You can use the funds for nearly anything related to your new home — renovations, upgrades, furnishing, debt payoff, landscaping, appliances, or even adding a rental or in-law unit.
What types of mortgages does this work with?
The Smart Loan can work alongside most loan types, including VA, FHA, USDA, Conventional, Jumbo, Non-QM, DSCR, and even our own private portfolio loans. Ask your banker which combo works best for your goals.
What happens after I check eligibility?
You’re scenarios will run, and you will be instantly matched with a real in-house banker who reviews your situation and shows all the options you may qualify for based on parameters you provided. Many of our clients are pre-approved to build, buy, or renovate, depending on the property.
Will this hurt my credit?
Checking your eligibility will not trigger a soft or hard credit pull. It’s simply to show you what programs and options may be available to you. If you choose to move forward and expand your options, we may request a soft pull to better tailor your choices. A hard credit report is only pulled if and when you complete a full application. Our eligibility form is not a credit application — it's just the first step to understanding what’s possible without impacting your score.

Jessica Edwards was amazing. She helped us navigate our primary construction loan and showed us how to use the Smart Loan to buy a modular in-law suite in the backyard for my wife's mom. We never thought we could do it all at once — now it's our dream setup.

I used the Smart Loan to furnish and finish the basement into a full rental unit. Bobby and his team made everything easy to understand, and the rate was better than what my local bank offered. Now I have a tenant paying most of my mortgage. Brilliant.

As a small-time investor, I used this program to renovate a duplex I just bought — without bringing in a partner or taking out hard money. This gave me breathing room and 100% control. Highly recommend Kenneth, especially for new investors.
