Frequently Asked Questions
Does New Silver offer short term loans and long term loans?
Yes. New Silver is a private lender that offers short term loan products for house flipping projects, but we also have 30 year rental property loans for investment properties. We also cater to real estate entrepreneurs hoping to build multi-family apartments with our new construction loans.
Is New Silver A Private Money Lender?
Yes, we are a direct lender that provides asset-based loans at scale. With asset-based lending, the underwriting process can be more lenient than conventional lenders. When a hard money lender analyses a deal, the underlying value of the asset is more important than the financial background of the investor when setting the terms of the real estate loan. As a result, the financing and credit score requirements are less stringent, income verification is not needed and the debt-to-income ratio of the borrower doesn’t matter. Plus, we can get you approved and closed within 7 days.
Do you offer new construction loans?
Yes. We offer ground-up construction loans for real estate developers that build single family (1-4 unit) residential properties.
Does New Silver offer bridge loans?
Yes. Our fix and flip loans can act as a bridge loan for real estate investors from 12 to 24 months in duration. More information can be found on the loan products page.
Why are hard money loan rates higher than traditional mortgages?
The main reason fix and flip loans have higher interest rates than a conventional loan is because of the risks involved in the transaction. Unlike a residential home purchase, a fix and flip project could run over budget or the real estate market could take a turn for the worse, making the property difficult to sell quickly. In other words, you could potentially lose money with a fix and flip. This risk is applicable to the borrower and the lender. The higher interest rate compensates for this risk.
How do you calculate the origination fee and monthly payments?
The origination fee (loan points) is usually between 2-3%, but this varies based on the loan amount, the loan term, the ltv and the experience of the investor. To work out the expected monthly payments of a private money loan, it is best to use our hard money loan calculator.
On this point, it is also worth noting that the monthly payment of each New Silver hard money loan program works on interest only payments. This helps reduce the cash flow burdens of the investor while the project is underway.
Does Credit Score Matter?
In short, yes. While our credit requirements are not as stringent as a traditional lender, we do review the credit history of all our borrowers. If you’re worried about loan approval and bad credit, it is best to look at our loan products page to see if New Silver’s lending solutions can be a good fit for your needs.
What Are The Main Loans That You Offer?

Does New Silver Offer Commercial Loans?
Right now, we do not specialize in commercial hard money loan products. With that being said, our maximum loan amount should be big enough to cover both residential and commercial projects, so a commercial loan might not be required unless it is a very large build.
