How to submit

For fastest clarity, use Second Opinion or Apply.

Why deals get declined

Declines usually come down to the numbers, the property, or the documentation. Here are the most common reasons:

Numbers don’t support the loan

ARV not supported by comps, rehab budget unrealistic, or thin margin after costs and fees.

Exit strategy isn’t clear

No defined plan to sell/refi/hold, or timeline doesn’t match the strategy.

Property or market risk

Condition issues, unusual property type, rural/low-liquidity markets, or title/legal concerns.

Documentation gaps

Missing entity docs, incomplete bank statements, or no scope of work for rehab/new construction.

If you’re unsure why a deal won’t fund, submit it for a Second Opinion — we’ll tell you what needs to change to improve fundability.
