The Basics

What Is a Cash-Out Equity Loan?

A cash-out equity loan lets you borrow against the equity built into your real estate — the difference between what your property is worth and what you owe. The result is a lump sum of cash, yours to deploy however you choose.

Unlike conventional loans that scrutinize W-2s, tax returns, and credit scores, HardFunded's cash-out equity loans are asset-based. The only requirement is 50% equity in the property — your credit history, income, and tax filings don't factor in at all.

You have equity. We provide capital. No committees, no financial interrogation, no months of waiting.

Use Cases

What Borrowers Do With the Cash

No restrictions on how you use your equity. Here are the most common ways HardFunded clients put their cash-out loans to work.

01

Real Estate Acquisitions

Move fast on investment property, fix-and-flip deals, or rental acquisitions without waiting for a conventional approval.

02

Business Capital

Fuel operations, cover inventory, or fund an expansion without diluting ownership or taking on high-interest credit lines.

03

Debt Consolidation

Replace several high-rate obligations with a single equity-backed loan. Simplify your balance sheet and reduce total interest paid.

04

Renovation & Construction

Fund value-add improvements, ADU builds, or major rehab projects. Use the equity you have now to create more equity tomorrow.

05

Bridge Financing

Cover a timing gap between transactions — carry a new purchase while your current property sells, or bridge to permanent financing.

06

Estate & Legal Needs

Address partnership buyouts, divorce settlements, probate, or trust distributions on the timeline circumstances demand.

FAQ

Common Questions

Answers to what borrowers ask most before they apply.

What exactly is a cash-out equity loan? +
A cash-out equity loan is a loan secured by real estate you own, where you receive a lump sum of cash based on the equity in that property. The loan is repaid — with interest — typically over a 1–3 year term. Unlike a HELOC, you receive the full amount at closing. At HardFunded, approval is based on the asset's value, not your income or credit history.
I have bad credit. Can I still qualify? +
Yes. HardFunded has no credit score minimum. Past foreclosures, bankruptcies, short sales, or other negative credit events will not automatically disqualify you. Our lending decision is asset-based: if your property has sufficient equity, you are a candidate regardless of your FICO score or credit history.
Why don't you require income documentation? +
Because your equity is the collateral — not your earnings or tax history. Traditional banks use income and tax return verification to determine your ability to service a long-term loan. Our loans are asset-based: 50% equity in the property is the qualification. This means self-employed borrowers, retirees, investors, and anyone with non-traditional finances can access capital that a conventional lender would decline.
How is the loan amount determined? +
The single requirement is 50% equity in the property. If your property is worth $1,000,000, you need to owe no more than $500,000 on it. The loan amount is based on the equity above that 50% threshold. A formal appraisal or BPO is ordered during underwriting to confirm current value.
What happens to my existing mortgage? +
In most cases, your existing first mortgage remains in place and HardFunded takes a second lien position. Depending on your goals, the cash-out loan can also be structured to pay off and replace your existing first mortgage. We'll walk you through the optimal approach when presenting your term sheet.
Can I use the cash for anything? +
Yes. HardFunded does not restrict the use of proceeds. Borrowers use these funds for real estate acquisitions, business capital, debt payoff, construction, legal settlements, bridge financing, and more. There are no use-of-funds covenants or spending restrictions.
How long does the process take? +
Our typical timeline from inquiry to funding is 7–14 business days. The primary variable is how quickly a property valuation can be completed in your area. For time-sensitive deals, we prioritize processing and can often compress the timeline further — ask about rush closings when you apply.
Are there prepayment penalties? +
Prepayment terms vary by loan structure. Many borrowers repay early — after a sale, refinance, or liquidity event — so flexibility matters. We offer structures with minimal or no prepayment penalties for qualifying scenarios. Discuss this when we present your term sheet so the loan fits your exit strategy.
