MM Lending is excited to announce that we are implementing a new loan operations system that will enhance our service and streamline loan management.
MM Lending is upgrading to a new loan operations system effective November 1, 2024. This will mainly affect interest payment processes and some account terms for loans closed on or after 11/1/24. Loans closed before this date will not be impacted.
ACH Payments Only: All interest payments will now be processed via ACH. You’ll be
asked to sign an Electronic Payment Authorization form as part of the loan process.
Payments received after the 5th business day of the month will be considered late and
will incur a late fee.
Yes, you will continue to receive a statement each month by the 20th. It will include
details of your interest payment, your Loan Balance, Interest Reserve Balance,
Construction Reserve Balance, and a summary of the prior month’s transactions.
Additional updates may be introduced as part of this system enhancement. MM Lending
will keep you informed of any changes as they come.
For any questions, please contact our team. We’re here to assist
you with any concerns or clarifications you may need.
Find answers to the most commonly asked questions about MM Lending.
Real estate investors use Private Lenders for their speed, flexibility, and ability to finance properties in poor condition. These loans are often short-term and are closed very quickly. Because they are short duration loans, and come with a higher degree of risk, these loans often have higher interest rates and fees compared to traditional Financing.
A hard money loan is a short-term, asset-based loan secured by real estate, where approval is primarily based on property value rather than the borrower’s creditworthiness.
The terms are often used interchangeably and refer to a non-bank lender that relies on the value of the asset to make lending decisions.
We have served thousands of real estate investors since 2005. With our same-day approvals and 10 day closings, MM Lending is how to get a fast hard money loan. Our streamlined approval process and in-house underwriting ensure you work directly with decision-makers who understand your investment strategy.

A fix-and-flip loan is a short-term loan secured by a mortgage used to quickly acquire a property, including financing for necessary repairs. Typically, these loans have a duration of 12 months and are used until the property is resold or refinanced.
Fix-and-flip loans are essential for real estate investors looking to buy and flip houses. These loans provide the funding needed to purchase distressed properties, renovate them, and sell for a profit. If you’re wondering who needs a fix-and-flip loan, it’s ideal for investors aiming to quickly acquire and transform undervalued properties into market-ready homes. With the right financing, flipping houses can be a lucrative investment strategy.
Yes, our fix-and-flip loans cover both the acquisition of the property and the necessary repair expenses.
