The BRRRR Method with Mako Loans
The BRRRR strategy allows you to build a rental portfolio with limited out-of-pocket capital. Here is how our financing supports each step:
- Buy: Use our hard money to close quickly on a distressed property that wouldn't qualify for a bank loan.
- Rehab: Execute your value-add plan using our milestone-based draw schedule to fund 100% of the construction.
- Rent: Once the property is "rent-ready," lease it to a tenant to stabilize the income.
- Refinance: Use the newly created equity (ARV) to refinance into a long-term loan and pay off the Mako bridge loan.
- Repeat: Use the proceeds from your refinance to fund the down payment on your next BRRRR deal.
