A borrower (aka “Sponsor”) can be a real estate developer, a real estate rehabilitator, or any other property owner looking for funding. To get a project financed, the developer must be an entity, not a physical person. Sharestates works exclusively with experienced borrowers, who can provide a strong track record. Sharestates runs each borrower’s background and credit for approval. All new projects provided by a returning developer will still be reviewed individually. No projects will be reviewed if developers FICO is less than 620.

There are two ways to submit a real estate project for consideration. Following application submission, allow one to two business days to receive an approval on your project as well as receive the necessary next steps to secure a closing date. Submit your application by selecting one of the below options:

  1. Submit your real estate loan application using the Sharestates online borrower portal (https://www.sharestates.com/get-financing)
  2. Create an account on sharestates.com and submit your loan application directly via your Sharestates account

 

Once you have an approval on your loan application, you will receive a term sheet from one of our representatives. As each project varies, the steps to closing will then be determined by our senior underwriting and processing teams based on the complexity of your individual deal.
