Verus Mortgage Capital Expands Investor Solutions and Renovation Loan Program

Washington, D.C. – June 6, 2019 – Verus Mortgage Capital (VMC), a full-service correspondent investor offering residential non-QM, investor rental and fix-and-flip loan programs, has announced updates to its short-term business purpose that will simplify processes for lenders substantially.

Verus’ expanded RTL program has several new benefits:

  • Clarity for lenders on what the exact upfront loan (Day 1 as-is LTB) amount will be without any complex loan to cost metrics
  • Up to 100% financing for construction costs up to the properties as repaired value (ARV)limit
  • Financing available for ground-up construction projects up to 18 months
  • Bridge loan programs available
  • Longer term rental take out loans based upon property debt service (DSCR) program up to 30-year loans

“Our simplified programs make it easier for lenders to do business with us,” says Ketan Parekh, Managing Director at Verus. “We now offer an easier to understand credit box review without changing the risk tolerance of our loans.”

 

For example, a highly experienced borrower with good credit score can get 85% financing on their purchase (if purchase price is 100,000 then initial loan would be 85,000. If the after-repair value of a fix-and-flip property is $200,000, Verus will finance a total loan of $150,000 leaving up to $65,000 in financeable construction costs.

“We also buy loans in bulk or one at a time,” Parekh adds, “thus enabling us to serve lenders large and small.”
