Transform Properties, Build Profits Cascara's Fix & Flip Loans

Our fix and flip loans

Turn distressed properties into profitable opportunities with financing built for renovation projects. Our fix and flip loans provide the fast capital and flexible terms you need to acquire, renovate, and sell residential properties — maximizing your returns. You have the vision to transform properties — and we have the financing to make it happen.

Renovation Financing Built for Speed and Profit

Cascara’s fix and flip loans (also known as residential transition loans) are designed for builders and contractors who spot potential where others see problems. We know that successful property flips depend on fast acquisition, efficient renovation, and quick resale — a timeline that traditional lenders simply can’t match.

Our financing covers both acquisition and renovation costs, giving you the flexibility to move fast, improve properties, and get them back on the market. No need to juggle multiple funding sources — our loans give you a single, streamlined solution that keeps your projects moving.
We’ve created a lending program that works the way experienced builders do: acting fast on opportunities, managing renovations efficiently, and turning properties for profit. Effective use of our fix and flip loans boosts property value, helping you maximize your returns when the project is done. Whether you’re flipping your first property or managing multiple projects at once, our financing adapts to your build strategy and timeline.

Why Builders Choose Cascara for Fix and Flip Projects

Designed by Builders Who Understand Renovation

Our fix and flip loan program is designed by professionals with real-world renovation experience — people who know the challenges of tight schedules, subcontractor coordination, and market timing.

We keep the process transparent and builder-focused, with clear terms and straightforward requirements. From initial property evaluation to renovation draw management, our in-house team handles every step, providing consistent support throughout your project. From acquisition to final sale, you’ll have a dedicated point of contact who knows renovation timelines and keeps your project moving.
We’ve eliminated the headaches builders typically face with traditional renovation loans — no excessive documentation, no unrealistic appraisals on distressed properties, and no cumbersome draw processes that stall your build.
