Fix & Flip

Fix & Flip Loans in Montana

Purchase and renovation financing for investment properties. One loan, one close, fast funding.

Overview

What Is a Fix & Flip Loan?

A fix-and-flip loan combines acquisition financing and renovation funding into a single short-term loan. It is designed for real estate investors who purchase distressed or undervalued properties, complete renovations, and sell for a profit. The loan covers both the purchase price and the construction budget, with rehab funds disbursed through a draw schedule as work progresses.

Montana's real estate market offers significant opportunities for experienced rehabbers, from aging housing stock in established neighborhoods to commercial properties in growing communities. Renegade Capital provides the capital and speed that fix-and-flip investors need to execute their business plans.

Whether you are completing your first flip or your fiftieth, our underwriting team evaluates the deal holistically — the property, the scope of work, the after-repair value, and your ability to execute. We structure loans to align with your project timeline and exit strategy.

Common Questions

Fix & Flip Loan FAQ

How does the draw schedule work for rehab funds?

Rehab funds are held in reserve and disbursed as construction milestones are completed. You or your contractor submits a draw request, we inspect the completed work (or review photos for smaller draws), and funds are released — typically within 2 to 3 business days. This protects both the borrower and the lender.

What types of properties can I flip with this loan?

We finance single-family homes, duplexes, small multi-family (up to 4 units), and small commercial properties for renovation and resale. The property must be in Montana and the loan must be for business/investment purposes. We do not finance owner-occupied flips.

Do I need flipping experience to qualify?

Prior experience is not strictly required, but it significantly impacts your terms. First-time flippers can qualify with lower leverage (60-65% LTV), a strong scope of work, and demonstrated ability to manage the project. Experienced flippers with completed projects receive better rates and higher leverage.

What costs should I budget beyond the loan?

Plan for closing costs (origination fee, title insurance, appraisal), carrying costs during renovation (monthly interest payments, insurance, utilities, property taxes), and selling costs (agent commissions, transfer taxes). We can help you model the full project budget during underwriting.

Can I refinance instead of selling the completed property?

Yes. Many borrowers use the BRRRR strategy (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat). After renovation, you can refinance into a longer-term loan — including our DSCR rental loan product — to hold the property as a rental. We can structure the fix-and-flip loan with this exit strategy in mind.
