STRATEGY
Nothing is more frustrating than watching someone submit the highest bid on a property.
After twenty years in this business, I've learned that hard money loans solve both problems by giving financed buyers the speed and certainty that cash offers provide.
With a solid hard money pre-approval, you're essentially bringing cash to the fight!
Understanding the game and winning it are two different things - we'll help you win.
Our Strategy to Compete with Cash Buyers in a Competitive Market
Get Pre-Approved
Get pre-qualified based on your equity and assets, giving you a commitment letter that carries the same weight as cash.
The 7-Day Close
We can close bridge loans in 5-10 business days. This timeline puts you within striking distance of cash buyers!
Waive Financing Conditions
With solid hard money pre-approval from reputable private lenders, your financed offer transforms into a cash-equivalent proposal
Details in Planning
Present your hard money financing alongside detailed renovation plans, market analysis, and proof of funds to demonstrate strategic business planning rather than desperation financing.
Nothing's more frustrating than watching your client submit the highest bid on a property only to lose out to a lower cash offer that the seller perceives as "safer." Even worse is when you have clients ready to move on great deals but traditional financing timelines of 30-45 days automatically disqualify them from competitive situations where cash buyers can close in under two weeks. After twenty years in this business, I've learned that hard money loans solve both problems by giving financed buyers the speed and certainty that cash offers provide.
When I work with clients who come to the table with solid hard money pre-approval, they're essentially bringing cash to the fight. I recently had a flipper in Denver compete against three all-cash offers on a distressed property - we structured his hard money offer to close in five days with zero financing contingencies, and he won even though his wasn't the highest bid. The key is positioning yourself as a serious professional who uses strategic financing, not someone who couldn't qualify for traditional lending.
Four Strategies to Compete with Cash Buyers in Competitive Markets
Don't wait until you find the perfect investment property to start the hard money loan process. Get pre-qualified based on your equity and assets, giving you a commitment letter that carries the same weight as cash with listing agents who understand alternative financing.
1. Get Pre-Approved by Acoma Capital Partners Before You Shop
We specialize in real estate investors can close bridge loans in 5-10 business days. This timeline puts you within striking distance of cash buyers while maintaining the financing flexibility you need for fix and flip projects or rental property acquisitions.
2. Master the 7-Day Close
With solid hard money pre-approval from reputable private lenders, you can safely waive financing contingencies. This transforms your financed offer into a cash-equivalent proposal that sellers and their agents will take seriously in competitive markets.
3. Eliminate Financing Contingencies Strategically
Combine your hard money financing with detailed renovation plans, market analysis, and proof of funds for down payments. This demonstrates that you're using strategic alternative financing as a business tool, not as a last resort after traditional lending failed.
4. Present Professional Investment Packages
Here's How it Works
Step 1: Submit Your Application with basic financial information and real estate experience. We evaluate your assets and equity instead of employment history, creating a faster, more flexible approval process for investors.
Step 2: Our team verifies your assets within 24-48 hours and issues a pre-qualification letter that gives you the competitive edge in multiple offer situations.
Step 3: We conduct rapid property evaluation and fund your loan in 5-10 business days, eliminating traditional financing delays so you can compete directly with cash buyers.
