Is fix-and-flip financing available for an owner-occupied home?

This hub covers business-purpose, non-owner-occupied investment property in California. Owner-occupied and consumer-purpose projects are outside the scope of these guides.

What makes a fix-and-flip project easier to review?

A clear scope of work, supported budget, credible contractor plan, property information, borrower experience, reserves, and a documented exit make the request easier to understand. None creates a promise of approval.

How are renovation draws handled?

Draw administration varies by transaction and lender. A reviewer may require documentation of completed work, inspections, updated budgets, reserves, and compliance with the agreed process.

Can projected resale value determine the financing?

Valuation is one part of a case-by-case review. A lender may consider current condition, comparable information, planned work, borrower capacity, lien position, and exit assumptions together.
