Are All Money Lenders Loan Sharks?
Benefits of Hard Money Loans from BMC
Hard money loans are beneficial to the borrowers because we move quickly. We’re primarily assert based, and we don’t worry about the creditworthiness of the borrower. We have flexibility. We can lend at a higher loan to values. We can work with borrowers to where traditional banks it has to fit inside of a box. And we also take on the risk, to where you have less money in the game. I’m putting up the majority of the money into the project, so I’m taking on the risk. If anything happens, typically, the borrower gets to walk away, and I’m left holding the bag.
Bay Mountain Capital has been around for about twelve years. We’ve been lending hard money loans for twelve years. We’ve been lending commercial for the last five or six years, and we know how it works. We know how to underwrite. We know how to work with our borrowers- they’re our partners. We’ve done over 330 million dollars worth of loans, over three thousand loans, so we know what we’re doing. Our default rate is less than one percent. So when you work with Bay Mountain Capital as your hard money lender, you have a partner that knows what they are doing.
Here at BMC, we have four core values- Integrity, Respect, Improvement, and Excellence. What do I mean by that? Integrity – we’re not in the loan to own business. We’re not going to give a loan unless we actually believe that the actual business plan can be successful, and the borrower will be able to flip the property. Respect – we give every borrower or applicant at least, the respect they deserve and really take a look at their application to make sure it’s going to be fulfilled or else we won’t do the loan. Improvement – we want to make… we want everyone to improve their lives, and so we want to help them be successful and to gain financial independence. And of course the last is Excellence. We strive to do our best in everything we do, and we hope that our borrowers, our partners do as well.
