LEGAL DISCLAIMER: This calculator is provided strictly for educational and illustrative purposes. The information, calculations, and rate estimates are based on general industry guidelines to the best of our knowledge and do not constitute a Loan Estimate, an offer to lend, or a guarantee of specific terms. APR calculation includes an estimated proxy for standard closing costs and origination fees (2.5% or 1.5% + $1,500). All scenarios assume a qualifying credit profile.

Real estate investors seeking short-term (bridge) debt to acquire and rehab a property.

  • Lenders cap the loan using three calculations. Your maximum loan is strictly the lowest of the three caps.
Your Estimated Costs

Your loan is limited by the lowest of these three caps:

    Max Loan Amount The lowest of the three calculations. This is the absolute maximum the lender will finance.
    Base Equity Required Total Project Cost (Purchase + Rehab) minus the Max Loan Amount.
    Est. Loan & Broker Fees Includes estimated origination, broker, processing, and underwriting fees.
    Est. Appraisal Fee$650
    Est. Title, Recording, Transfer Tax

    Strategic Financing. Endless Options.

    Most lenders focus solely on the "approval"—treating a mortgage as a one-time transaction. That approach ignores the bigger picture: a client's long-term financial trajectory.

    A mortgage is a critical financial tool, not just a pile of paperwork. By partnering with a vast network of wholesale lenders and investors, Robertson Home Mortgage unlocks access to an incredibly diverse range of loan products. This extensive partnership network ensures that debt structuring becomes a strategic asset—creating more flexibility, more tailored solutions, and ultimately, more pathways to YES.
