Fix & Flip Loans
Flips die waiting on bank committees. A fix-and-flip loan is built for the actual rhythm of the trade: close fast on a distressed property, fund the renovation in draws as work completes, sell, repay, repeat. The loan is priced for speed and exits in months — because that’s the business.

Flipping in Central & Eastern Kentucky
Richmond, Irvine, Winchester, and the county seats have exactly the housing stock flips are made of — solid bones, dated finishes, prices that leave margin. The regional edge: rehab budgets live or die on honest repair numbers, and through Central Property Services we see real repair costs on real houses here every week. Bring the deal and we’ll pressure-test the budget before the loan does.

Common Questions
How do rehab draws work?
The renovation budget is held and released in stages as completed work is inspected — the same discipline that keeps projects on schedule. Plan the draw schedule with your contractor before closing so the money and the work arrive together.
What kills flip deals?
Optimistic rehab budgets and slow timelines — every extra month is another payment. Underwrite the ugly version of the project, not the HGTV version. And in this market, the repair estimate is something we can gut-check with real contractor eyes.
Longer rehab or heavier lift? Compare hard money.
