Michael Chadwick joined Asset Based Lending as a Vice President and Area Manager in December 2020, bringing with him over 20 years of real estate and financial services experience in the New England area. Prior to ABL, Michael was responsible for developing and directing the day to day operations for a private lender in the north east where he led the origination and underwriting of over $150 million in loans across 5 states. In addition to Michael’s hard money lending and commercial finance background, Michael has hands on experience as a real estate investor having led a private investment firm through the acquisition and renovation of approximately 150 homes throughout New England.
Michael is an expert in managing hard money loans for real estate, with experience in assets ranging from single-family fix and flips to 7-figure multi-family new construction projects and everything in between. His skillset spans many aspects of real estate lending including underwriting, property valuation and analysis, and even construction draw management. His dedication and personal touch have cultivated strong business relationships with his borrowers throughout the years, meshing perfectly with ABL’s lending culture.
Fix And Flip Loans
Home fix and flip loans are the link to profitability and leverage in this scenario, and these real estate investor loans have always been a primary focus for ABL. As hard money lenders in Massachusetts, we primarily provide 12-month loans to experienced investors and professionals, but we do lend to qualified first-time borrowers as well.
Speed is critical to capitalizing on incredible investment property opportunities in Massachusetts, and ABL provides financing solutions that typical lending institutions cannot. We can close in three to four days if all of the paperwork is in order, and the average closing time is 10 days for our fast MA hard money loans — which cover up to 85% of the purchase price and 100 percent of the rehab costs.
New Construction Loans
ABL provides new construction loans in MA when conventional financing is not the right answer. New construction loans in Massachusetts are available only to experienced investors, contractors and builders, who typically can borrow up to 70% of the land value and 100 percent of the construction costs.
While our underwriting criteria for construction loans are flexible, with no minimum credit score requirements, borrowers can be sure of our faith in them because we won’t fund a loan if our experience doesn’t convince us that everyone involved in the deal will profit.
Rental Loans
Asset Based Lending offers term rental loans for buy and hold investors in Massachusetts. These private rental loans are designed for 1-4 family properties with single rental loans up to $3M and rental portfolio loans up to $3M. Our unique capital structure allows us to offer competitive loans with rates as low as 6% and leverage up to to 80% LTV.
ABL offers flexible loan options to help meet borrower needs, including 30-year amortization, ARM, and interest-only options. We work with investors of all experience levels, whether you’re working on your first rental property or expanding your rental portfolio.
