As a private capital firm, Winston Rowe & Associates runs into lot of situations with people who submitted their applications and then they don't do anything else and do not get their loans in a timely manner.

First, what is hard money? The answer is hard money; which is also known as private capital or private money. Is a group of private investors that pool their money to make commercial real estate loans to other real estate investors or developers who can’t obtain financing from a traditional bank because their real estate investment or future development is too high risk. These loans are typically for short terms of 1 day to 2 years with interest rates starting at 10% interest only.

The key of getting fast hard money loan regardless what lender or consultant you are working with is to get the documentation required for getting a hard money loan in a fast manner, regardless of who is going to do this hard money loan for you. If you want to get it done on quick basis, definitely you need to work on the required documentation by hard money investors that they are going to require before you close.

Now another question arises; what private money lenders need in terms of documentation? Typically they are going to need some of the following documents.

An application or intake document
YTD Profit & Loss (P&L)
Last 3 Years Profit & Loss Statements (P&L)
Last 3 Years Business Tax Returns
Last 3 Years Personal Tax Returns
Schedule E's or 8825’s
Buyers Tri Merge Credit Report For All Principles
Business & Personal Bank Statements
Personal Financial Statement All Principles

Once you submit the application or intake form the next step in the hard money loan is to actually have an evaluation done on the property where somebody goes and determines what the property is worth actually or determines how much they are going to lend you on the property in case you are going for Rehab Loans.

So while as a real estate investor are going to choose a hard money loan, you need to do quickly and comprehensively complete the lenders supporting  documentation in order to get the loan done by your hard money lender. So, any delay in documentation is the will cause the delay in getting a quick hard money loan.
