Deal Summary
Myers Capital Hawaii, a residential and commercial mortgage banking company and direct private lender, partnered with its affiliate, Koa Mortgage Fund, to finance a $240,000 purchase and rehab loan for a single-family home in Kurtistown, a small town on the Big Island of Hawaii. We funded 100% of the $100,000 renovation budget and 80% of the $170,000 purchase price, while the Borrower contributed 20% cash to the purchase at closing. The after-repair value was estimated at $450,000 so our loan-to-after-repair value was 53.33%. Initially structured as a 12-month loan, we identified a cost-saving opportunity and provided a 6-month term instead, reducing the Borrowers’ builder’s risk insurance expenses. This showcased how our flexible loan structuring helps Borrowers conserve cash for their projects. The property is approximately 1,377 square feet set in a 1.42-acre lot. The Borrower had excellent credit. They plan to sell the property as an exit strategy. The interest rate was 13%. This fix and flip loan was funded in February 2025.
