How Can I Apply for a Truehold Financial Investor Loan?

The Essentials

  • Start with a simple conversation about your investment goals and property details
  • Get matched to the right product — DSCR loans for rentals or fix-and-flip loans for renovation projects
  • Streamlined documentation — lighter requirements than traditional mortgages, no W-2s for DSCR loans
  • Clear timeline from application to funding — as few as 10 days for straightforward transactions

Getting investor financing shouldn't feel like navigating a maze. Unlike traditional lenders who treat every loan the same way, we specialize in real estate investors—which means we understand your goals, speak your language, and structure our process around how you actually operate.

Here's what to expect when you work with us.

Start with a Conversation

Your first step is simple: contact Truehold Financial with information about your investment goals and the property you're considering (or already own, if you're refinancing). This initial discussion helps us understand what you're trying to accomplish.

Are you buying your first rental property? Scaling an existing portfolio? Refinancing to pull cash out for another purchase? Each scenario might point toward different financing solutions, and this conversation ensures we're recommending the right fit.

We'll Match You to the Right Product

Truehold Financial offers multiple investor loan products, including DSCR loans for rental properties (DSCR stands for Debt Service Coverage Ratio) and fix-and-flip loans for renovation projects.  With DSCR loans, we look at the rental income and if it covers the mortgage, taxes, and insurance, During our discussion, we’ll help you decide which product is the best fit for you. 

If you're buying a turnkey rental property to hold long-term, DSCR financing makes sense. If you're purchasing a property that needs work before it can be rented or sold, fix-and-flip financing might be more appropriate. We'll walk through the differences and recommend accordingly.

Understanding Documentation and Timeline

Once we've identified the right product, we'll explain exactly what documentation we need from you. The requirements are typically lighter than traditional mortgages—especially for DSCR loans, which don't require W-2s or extensive tax return analysis.

We'll also provide a clear timeline for approval and funding. Because we specialize in investor loans and understand these transactions, our process moves efficiently. For fix-and-flip loans, we can close in as few as 10 days for straightforward deals. DSCR loans follow a similar streamlined approach.  We will look to close on your timeline, often in as little as 10 days.

What Happens Next

After your initial consultation, you'll know:

  • Which loan product fits your investment strategy
  • What documentation you need to provide
  • How long the approval and funding process will take
  • What terms and rates you can expect

From there, our team guides you through each step, keeping the process transparent and moving forward.

No Need to Navigate This Alone

Real estate investing involves enough moving parts—financing shouldn't add unnecessary complexity. Whether you're exploring investor loans for the first time or you're an experienced investor looking for a more efficient lending partner, Truehold Financial is set up to support your specific needs.
