How It Works
From First Conversation to Funded
Private capital financing does not require a formal application at the start. A conversation about the property and the situation is enough to determine whether there is a structure worth pursuing. Here is what that process looks like.
The private capital financing process
Share Your Situation
Describe the property, the deal, and the financing challenge. There is no formal application at this stage. No credit pull. No commitment. A call or a submitted form is enough to start.
Initial Evaluation
Troy Mire reviews the property, the equity position, and the situation to determine whether private capital is an appropriate fit and what structure makes sense. Most deals can be evaluated in a single conversation.
Terms and Structure
If the deal has merit, Troy Mire presents the proposed loan structure — loan amount, LTV or CLTV, rate range, term, and any conditions. Terms are specific to the deal, not pulled from a standard rate sheet.
Documentation and Underwriting
Once terms are agreed in principle, documentation is collected. For private capital, this typically includes a property appraisal, title report, proof of insurance, and basic borrower information. Significantly less paperwork than a conventional loan.
Closing
Private capital loans close through a licensed title company or escrow. The closing process mirrors a conventional loan closing — loan documents, title transfer if applicable, and wire of funds — but happens significantly faster.
Execute the Exit Strategy
Private capital is short-term by design. The loan structure is built around a defined exit — sale of the property, refinance into permanent financing, or completion of a value-add plan. Executing the exit on schedule is the investor's primary obligation after closing.
Evaluation Criteria
What Private Capital Evaluates
Private capital is not evaluated on the same factors as conventional lending. Here is what matters and what matters less.
Heavily Weighted
- Property value and equity position
- Loan-to-value or combined loan-to-value ratio
- Property type and location
- Clarity and feasibility of the exit strategy
- Title condition and lien position
- Borrower's experience with similar deals
Less Determinative
- Personal income and tax documentation
- Credit score (considered but not disqualifying)
- Number of existing financed properties
- Employment status or employer verification
- Property condition at the time of closing
- Prior credit events such as bankruptcy or foreclosure
