How to Qualify for a Fix and Flip Loan

Thinking about flipping your first property? Fix and flip loans are designed to help real estate investors purchase, renovate, and sell homes quickly, but how do you actually qualify?

At Prime Plus Mortgages, we simplify the process so first-time Arizona investors can get funded fast.

What You Need to Qualify for a Fix and Flip Loan

You don’t need perfect credit or years of experience. You just need a solid deal and a plan.

Here’s what you’ll need to get approved:

Requirement What It Means
Property Under Contract You’ll need a purchase agreement or a closing date for the property.
Basic Renovation Plan Include a simple budget and estimated timeline for repairs.
Exit Strategy Plan to resell (flip) or refinance once the renovations are complete.
Fair or Better Credit We work with credit scores starting in the mid-600s, but flexibility varies by deal.
