Qualifications & Requirements

The primary considerations in extending a loan commitment are the property value, the perspective borrowers’ relevant experience, and the perceived risk by Good Funds Lending, LLC. The following represent a subset of qualifications and requirements for loan consideration. The qualifications are considered collectively and loan commitments are not guaranteed even if all the qualifications and requirements listed here are met.

Borrower Qualifications/Requirements:

Typically for the highest loan to value ratio (largest loan amount) and/or lowest rates, a loan requires 2 or more acceptable human borrowers (in addition to the entity that holds title, if the entity is the property owner). If an entity holds title (i.e. is the property owner), typically a super-majority of the ownership and voting control is required to be cosigners and often all direct and indirect owners that own more than 10% of the entity are required as cosigners. Typically the maximum Loan To Value ratio is 5%-10% lower with a single human borrower, but other terms may also change.

• The borrower on title must be a corporation, LLC or partnership, registered with the Colorado Secretary of State.
• If the property will undergo rehab, at least one cosigner on the loan must have completed at least 2 rehab projects of similar scale or large in the last 3 years (or have other qualifications which the Lender believes sufficient).
