If you have poor credit or a blemish on your financial history, a traditional bank loan might not be an option for you. Don’t worry — Arizona owner occupied hard money loans might still be an option to get you in a home.

If you’ve been turned down for a loan by the bank, you might be interested in alternative funding options. Let’s look at some pros and cons so you can decide if it’s for you.

1. What are they? Hard money loans are loans that are secured with collateral. Rather than look intently at a borrower’s credit score and financial history, hard money lenders use the borrower’s property to cover the risk of lending the money. This makes them easier to qualify for and faster to get than traditional bank loans.

2. Can they be used to buy a family home? Most people think of hard money loans when they think of fix and flips or rental properties. However, these types of loans can also be used by people who intend to buy a home and live in it.

3. How do Arizona owner occupied hard money loan differ from regular hard money loans? In a hard money loan for a fix and flip or investment property, the borrower traditionally sells the property for a profit and repays the loan. If the borrower doesn’t intend to sell the house, the requirements may be a little different.

4. What are the rates? Because of the risk for the lender, the rates for these types of loans are typically a little higher. Most range between 6-12%.

5. What are the extra requirements? Since there’s not an investment property put up as collateral, borrowers may be asked to provide W2s, tax returns, pay stubs and proof of any debts.
