Flexible Real Estate Financing Based on the Property — Not Just Personal Income

Asset Based Rate-Term Refinance

A rate-term refinance allows investors to replace an existing loan with a new loan structure, without necessarily taking significant cash out.

This may be useful for borrowers who want to:

• Refinance out of hard money
• Replace short-term bridge financing
• Move into longer-term financing
• Improve payment structure
• Stabilize an investment property loan
• Convert temporary financing into a more sustainable loan product
• Refinance commercial or residential investment property debt

Asset based refinance programs may offer more flexibility than traditional lenders, especially when the property has strong equity or value.

Fix-and-Flip Financing

Catalyst Business Capital can help investors explore short-term asset-based financing for fix-and-flip projects.

Fix-and-flip loans are designed for real estate investors who purchase a property, renovate or improve it, and then sell it or refinance it into long-term financing.

• Property acquisition
• Renovation costs
• Rehab draws
• Short-term holding periods
• Value-add improvements
• Properties needing repairs
• Properties being repositioned for resale or rental use

These loans are commonly structured as short-term, interest-only loans and may be based on the property’s purchase price, renovation budget, and after-repair value.

Asset based fix-and-flip financing can be especially useful for investors who need fast closings, flexible underwriting, and access to renovation capital.

Bridge Loans for Investment Properties

Bridge loans are short-term financing solutions used when an investor needs temporary capital before moving into a permanent loan, selling the property, or completing a refinance.

Bridge financing may be useful when:

• The investor needs to close quickly
• The property is not yet stabilized
• The borrower needs time to renovate or reposition the property
• Traditional bank financing is too slow
• The investor plans to refinance after improvements are completed
• The property has strong collateral value but does not yet meet traditional underwriting standards

Bridge loans can be used for eligible residential investment properties and certain commercial real estate transactions.

Long-Term Asset Based Investor Loans

Asset based financing is not limited to short-term loans. Some programs may provide longer-term financing options for investors who want to hold rental or commercial properties.

• Stabilized rental properties
• Investor 1–4-unit properties
• Multifamily buildings
• Mixed-use properties
• Commercial properties
• Portfolio growth
• Cash-flowing real estate assets

These loan structures may be especially helpful for self-employed investors and business owners who want financing based more on the property and less on traditional personal income documentation.

Blanket Portfolio Loans

A blanket loan, also known as a portfolio loan, allows an investor to finance multiple properties under one loan structure.

This may be a strong option for investors who own or are purchasing several investment properties and want to simplify financing.

• Finance multiple properties together
• Use equity across a portfolio
• Reduce the need for separate loans on each property
• Refinance several properties at once
• Acquire multiple properties in one transaction
• Grow a real estate portfolio more efficiently

Blanket loan options may be available for eligible residential investment property portfolios, subject to lender guidelines.

Why Choose Asset Based Financing?

Asset based financing may be a strong fit for borrowers who need flexibility, speed, and practical underwriting.

This type of financing may be useful when:

• The property has strong equity
• The borrower is self-employed
• The borrower has complex income
• Traditional income documentation is difficult
• The investor needs a faster closing
• The borrower wants to refinance out of hard money
• The transaction involves an investment property
• The property is commercial, mixed-use, or multifamily
• The borrower wants to use real estate equity to access capital
• The investor is purchasing, refinancing, or improving property

With the right structure, asset-based financing can help investors move forward when traditional banks are too slow, too restrictive, or too focused on personal income documentation.
