The Process

From scenario to wire in four steps.

Hard money is supposed to be fast and clear. Here is exactly how Averlend takes a deal from first call to funded, and what we look at along the way.

Submit your scenario

Reach out with the collateral, the loan amount, and your repayment plan. A short conversation tells us most of what we need.

Collateral & deal review

We evaluate the asset, confirm value and lien position, and underwrite the exit. The asset and the deal carry the file, not your credit score.

Terms & documents

You receive clear 12-month terms and any rehab or draw structure in writing. We prepare the note and security instruments.

Close & fund

Sign, perfect the lien, and we wire the capital. You execute while slower money is still waiting on approval.

Loan documents and calculator

What underwriting looks at

Five inputs that drive your approval.

  • Collateral value. As-is, and after-repair where it applies.
  • Loan-to-value. Sized up to 90% on qualifying assets.
  • Exit strategy. Sale, refinance, or seasoned cash flow inside 12 months.
  • Lien position. Clear title and a secured, enforceable position.
  • Experience. Your track record sharpens terms over time.

What you need ready

Come prepared, close faster.

Collateral details

Address, VIN, serial number, or description of the asset, plus any existing liens.

The numbers

Purchase price, value, rehab budget if any, and the loan amount you need.

Your exit

How and when the loan is repaid within the 12-month term.
