Fund That Flip specializes in funding the rehabilitation of homes by re-developers. All funding is by debt, not equity investment. Investors are secured with a first-position lien on the underlying real estate.
Loans are given only to qualified re-developers with a minimum of six successfully completed previous projects. The minimum equity investment required of the re-developers seeking the loan funds is 20% of the real estate property's acquisition cost. In some cases, this requirement may be higher. Up to 100% of the construction costs are financed, with holdbacks that are released upon successful achievement of construction milestones, subject to physical inspection. Loan-to-value must be less than 65% of the value of the property after repairs are made.
Investors invest in a Borrower Dependent Note (BPN). This is a security issued by Fund That Flip, which represents a debt investment in the fund. The proceeds less the transaction fees of 2-4% are used to invest in a first-position mortgage note on the property. Investors invest in a specific loan on a specific piece of real estate for a specific borrower. The performance of the investment is directly correlated with the performance of the underlying borrower note (mortgage). Annual returns for investors are in the range of 8% to 14%. There is no indication of how much they have raised so far. The minimum investment is US$5,000.

I had 49 deals with FTF. Unfortunately, 8 of them were with a Chicago developer to whom FTF disbursed construction payments where either (1) the construction had not been done or (2) the construction was done, but was ripped out by vandals or squatters. I lost more $ on those deals than I made on interest on the other deals.

Overall pleased, rates are falling but fewer problems than some of the other debt platforms

This is my favorite platform. The formats are good. Information is good. Rates are good. I have a few loans with them but recently their quality has gone downhill and the frequency has dropped as well

They are very good at providing updates on each investment. I have had 6 investments with them, 2 have been repaid. This is one of my favorite platforms.

I concur w/other comments. They comm well, provide plenty of DD and seem to be proactive in dealing with any loan issues and letting investors know what's going on.

Have 6 investments with them, 1 matured. All payments have been on time. Extensions have been granted on a few, but I have full confidence that they will mature and pay back principal.

FtF is one of my favorite platforms. "Who is your customer?" FtF answers this question as, "The investor." Naturally, they need to pay attention to both sides, but they lean more towards protecting the investor.
I like that they provide a lot of up front information about the property and borrower. I feel like I have a good understanding of the deal after reading their information and I have enough information to do more research if I feel so inclined. They have shown in my experiences an inclination to protect investors by refusing extensions to borrowers while also working with them to find the best way forward for everyone.
Payments are consistently on-time. There is one payment made per investment which can be a little hard to map payments back to specific investments, but it has all been in there.
Communications are fantastic. Regular project updates are provided and investor relations folks are readily available for questions. Sometimes, FtF can be a little more timely in their communications, but they far exceed my experiences in every other platform.

Fund that Flip is like having a time capsule. They feel like Patch of Land in 2014. Smaller deals (ie less risky in this market cycle) and slightly better rates. Patch of Land in 2014 loans were all 12% to 13%. Now FTF has slightly better rates than POL. Communication is their strong suite. No real data to back this up, but I have heard of a lot less defaults on FTF than POL or LendingHome. I have 5 investments on FTF and all are current.
