Deal Summary
Myers Capital Hawaii—a residential and commercial mortgage banking company and direct private lender—funded a $1,000,000 equity cash-out bridge loan with a construction holdback for a ground-up single-family home construction project in Kealakekua on Hawaii Island. The Borrower required funds to retire an existing loan and secure additional capital for construction. To increase leverage, we cross-collateralized a free-and-clear land parcel and financed 100% of the $440,000 construction budget. This structure provided the liquidity needed to complete the project. The loan carries a combined loan-to-after-repair value of 54.50% and a loan-to-value of 46.86%, based on a projected combined after-repair-value of $1,835,000 and a property value of $1,195,000. It offers strong collateral support while meeting the Borrower’s construction funding needs and positioning the home for completion and market sale. The subject property is approximately 1,301 square feet set on a 3.12-acre lot. The Borrower had good credit. The interest rate was 13%. The loan term was set at 9 months with interest guaranteed. This bridge loan was funded in October 2025.
