What credit score do I need to bridge in Milwaukee?+
680 minimum for the primary guarantor. 720+ unlocks the best pricing tier and the highest leverage for Milwaukee deals. Co-guarantors can strengthen a file.
How fast can we close a Milwaukee bridge?+

Can I use a bridge for a 1031 in Milwaukee?+
Yes — this is the most common Milwaukee bridge scenario. We close inside the IRS 180-day replacement window when agency debt won't cooperate.
Does the property need to cash flow to bridge in Milwaukee?+
No. Milwaukee bridge loans are underwritten to the asset, business plan, and exit — not to in-place DSCR. That's the whole point of a bridge.
Can I cash out equity from an existing Milwaukee property?+
Yes. Cash-out bridges in Milwaukee are capped at 75% of as-is appraised value. Common use: pull equity from a stabilized asset to fund the next Milwaukee acquisition.
How does the DSCR takeout work in Milwaukee?+
Once the Milwaukee property is stabilized and leased, we refinance the bridge into a 30-year DSCR permanent loan at up to 80% LTV. Same lender, same file, reused appraisal in most cases.
Do Milwaukee bridge loans require reserves?+
Yes — typically 6 months of PITIA verified from a bank statement at underwriting. Value-add and vacant assets may require more.
Can I extend a Milwaukee bridge?+
A 6-month extension is available on most files, subject to a small extension fee. Common Milwaukee triggers: appraisal timing, lease-up delays, and permit lag on light rehab.
What property types qualify in Milwaukee?+
1–4 unit residential, 5–10 unit small multifamily, and select mixed-use in Milwaukee. Owner-occupied is not eligible.
What are typical Milwaukee bridge rates?+
Rate depends on LTV, asset, credit, and exit certainty. Interest-only during the hold — only the funded balance accrues.
Is there a prepayment penalty on Milwaukee bridge loans?+
No — pay off any time inside the term. That's what makes bridge the right tool for auction acquisitions and short-hold repositions in Milwaukee.
Can I bridge a partially occupied Milwaukee small multi?+
Yes — lease-up bridge is a core use case for Milwaukee small multifamily. Bridge holds through stabilization, then DSCR refinance on the completed rent roll.
Are Milwaukee bridge loans business-purpose only?+
Yes. Every Milwaukee bridge we originate is a business-purpose loan on non-owner-occupied investment property, closed in your LLC or corporate entity, exempt from consumer disclosure requirements.
What documents do you need to price a Milwaukee bridge?+
Address, purchase contract (or payoff on a refi), written business plan and exit, entity docs, credit authorization, insurance binder, and 2 months of bank statements for reserves.
