Loans
When an association needs significant funds for capital projects or maintenance repairs, special assessments and reserve funds may not always be the best option. Instead, many boards opt to finance these projects through a community association loan. And while it solves the funding problem, the actual process of obtaining the loan can be complex and time consuming.
With EJF, our team of experts helps facilitate the entire process, from pre-qualification through closing and funding. We utilize a single point of contact for multiple lenders, effectively streamlining an otherwise cumbersome task. Together with our in-house project management team, we analyze your reserve study to determine various funding options while also taking into consideration multiple payment scenarios.
How We Help:
- Begin with an analysis of the existing reserve study and integrate reserve projections into a comprehensive project plan.
- Determine the association's ability to contribute reserve funds toward the project without jeopardizing future needs.
- Establish an estimate for the loan amount.
- Obtain loan quotes.
- Prepare repayment scenarios.
- Provide board support throughout entire loan process including advising on loan options, facilitating informational townhall meetings and supporting any owner voting requirements.
