Last Mile Funding, LLC

Gap Equity Funding For House Flippers

House flippers often find out as they approach a closing date they underestimated the cash needed to close the deal. Some of the causes of short falls include unanticipated interest reserves, points to the hard money lender and/or loan broker, and other third party costs. 

The most difficult money to find to close is this last piece, which we call the Last Mile. We can close this gap with up to $10,000 per deal get the deal done, or lose it. The lender has gone as far as they can, and so have you. There are no lenders in the market that can close this gap. Minimum LMF investment is $3,000. 

That's where we come in with Last Mile Funding (LMF).
