How Capital Fund I Works: the Easy 3-Step Loan Process

At Capital Fund 1, we want to take the mystery out of the hard money lending process. Instead of making you jump through hoops, we have trimmed our application process down to three simple steps.

Fill out the online application & submit required documents (Purchase contract, photos, & planned improvements)

Submit Loan

Our in-house underwriting team reviews your deal and can send out terms as quickly as the same day.

Get Started Now

After choosing your closing date, gather closing documents (escrow, title, & Insurance), and your deal is funded in as little as 24 hours.

Review Your Account

Just 1-2-3 and You’ll Have the Funding You Need.

As an asset-based lender, Capital Fund 1 can move faster than a traditional or institutional lender. When underwriting a loan, we focus more on the real property than individual’s creditworthiness. We do not check credit, borrower financials, or require a 3rd party appraisal. This significant departure from the status quo allows investors to add a quick closing as a value add to their purchase offers. Learn more about the other advantages of hard money.

How Are We Able To Do This?

Another key part of our formula is the dedicated team we have put together. Combined, we have over 100 years of real estate, investing, and lending experience. Our team is geared up to see the value investors are looking to add to a residential or commercial property. Every day, we see the impressive value extraction our borrowers are able to execute by bringing a fully renovated asset to market. Meet the team behind CF1

    Kevin from capital fund 1 was easy to work with and guided so patiently through my first hard money loan. He was easy to reach and very knowledgable. Glad that I found these guys, without them this deal wouldn't have worked! They also were the best rates I could find after getting in touch with several other lenders in the phoenix area.

    This was my first time working with a hard money lender and Kevin Highmark was extremely helpful in explaining the process of getting funded. He also helped me determine the price level for properties I could buy based on my finances. The process of getting funded was super easy and I even qualified for a smaller percentage down payment than I was originally quoted! Will definitely use Capital Fund 1 again
