Why Georgia Real Estate Investors Use DPCG
Private real estate transactions rarely fit one universal credit box. Direct Private Capital Group, Inc. reviews the transaction and may act as a lender, broker or referral source depending on the deal. This allows the financing review to consider the property, project structure and borrower circumstances together.
One Clear Scenario
Start with the key transaction facts instead of repeatedly explaining the same deal across multiple disconnected inquiries.
Potential Capital Structures
A financing review can consider the purchase or land basis, construction or rehab budget, liquidity, experience, timing and exit strategy.
Capital-Source Fit
Different financing sources may have different property, leverage, experience and construction requirements. DPCG can evaluate the transaction against applicable financing paths.
Better File Preparation
A well-organized file can reduce preventable follow-up involving title, budgets, contractor information, permits, valuation, reserves and exit strategy.
Human Communication
Submit the scenario online or call to discuss the project before sensitive documentation is provided through the appropriate secure process.
How the Financing Review Works
Submit the Scenario
Provide the property or project, financing request, purchase or land basis, rehab/construction budget, liquidity, experience, timing and exit strategy.
Preliminary Review
DPCG reviews the transaction facts and identifies missing information or questions required for a meaningful financing review.
Structure & Capital-Source Review
Depending on the transaction, DPCG may act as a lender, broker or referral source and evaluate applicable financing paths.
Terms, Underwriting & Closing
Any preliminary terms, approval, underwriting requirements and closing conditions depend on the applicable financing source and final transaction documentation
Georgia Fix & Flip Financing
Georgia Fix & Flip Loans for Purchase + Renovation Projects

Purchasing a Property That Needs Work?
Send the purchase price, estimated renovation budget, expected ARV and target closing date.

Existing Lender Failed to Close?
Explain what changed, the current deadline, title/payoff status and any unresolved financing conditions
Georgia Fix & Flip Financing
Georgia Ground-Up Construction Financing for Investors, Builders & Developers

Provide the purchase contract, land purchase price, proposed construction budget, plans status and estimated as-complete value.
