How you make money

Fund That Flip originates loans, partnering with experienced real estate developers who seek funding for their new construction and rehab projects. These loans are then offered to accredited investors in fractional notes via their online platform.  On average, investors have earned an annualized return of over 10.8% with principal repayment in under 10 months.

When you invest in a project on Fund That Flip, you're investing in a Borrower Dependent Note (BDN), in a diversified pool of BDNs (through their residential bridge note fund or RBNF), or in a diversified pool of short-term, real estate-backed loans via a line credit (through their Pre-Funding Note Fund or PFNF). The performance of the BDN correlates directly with the performance of a note that Fund That Flip invests in with the redeveloper of the project you've chosen. The underlying note is typically a first-position mortgage or similar security. While the note you purchase is unsecured, the terms of your note give you rights to the proceeds generated from the underlying note that is securing the real estate—hence the name "Borrower Dependent." If you invest through their RBNF, your investment is spread across a diversified variety of fractional mortgage via BDNs, If you invest through their PFNF, your investment is in pre-fund loans which typically have a shorter time frame.

How Fund That Flip makes money

There are no out-of-pocket fees for investors. Fund That Flip earns revenue through origination fees, interest rate spread, and pre-funding loans using their own capital. Origination fees are charged to the redeveloper and collected at closing. Interest rate spread is the difference between the interest rate charged to the redeveloper and the rate passed through to investors. By pre-funding loans, Fund That Flip earns the full coupon of the underlying mortgage until it is fully syndicated to investors.

Is it safe?

Fund That Flip's experienced team thoroughly diligences each loan and invests alongside you so that incentives remain aligned. Only 6 to 8 percent of all projects submitted on Fund That Flip meet their underwriting criteria. Each project is managed by a team that has completed at least 4 projects in the last 12 months. Funds are distributed so that the borrower always has meaningful equity in the project. Your investment corresponds to an underlying first-position mortgage. In the event the project doesn't go as planned, your downside will be protected by the value of the real property. Your investment is further insulated by the borrower's 15-20% equity.

 

To limit the risk of the Company’s (Fund That Flip) insolvency, the Company has granted an Indenture Trustee a security interest in all of the underlying loans corresponding to the BDNs and the related payments. The Indenture Trustee may exercise its legal rights to the collateral only if an event of default has occurred under the Indenture. While BDNs are technically unsecured debt instruments, each debt offering is secured by a first position lien on the underlying property (the collateral). The reason that BDNs are not technically secured is that the collateral is not pledged directly to the holder of the BDN but, rather, is pledged to the Indenture Trustee under which the investor benefits as a BDN holder.

 

Investing in real estate is inherently risky. Each project on the platform has different risk factors which are discussed on each project page. Fund That Flip, although offering unsecured debt instruments, has many measures in place for you to be confident in your investments.

FTF is by far one of the best platforms I have used. I have several investments with these guys and the due diligence rocks, the returns rock, and the communication and support is top notch. This is how a platform should work. If you are an accredited investor and are looking to jump into the hard money pool this is who you want to use.

I've invested for over a year and a half with FtF, and continue to do so despite COVID. I appreciate the transparency they provide both on individual opportunities, but also with regular updates on active investments. Customer service is very responsive. No complaints so far.

I have been invested with Fund That Flip since Aug 2022 and am very happy with my decision. I invested because of their relatively high yield investments that pay monthly cash dividends directly to my checking account, and their yields increase along with market interest rates. I also like that their debt investments are backed by physical real estate, that they offer RBNF and PFNF funds that do the work of diversifying me across multiple loans and the Company contributes 10% up to $1M of their own money in each fund alongside investors. So far I’ve received cas dividends on the 17th of each month.
