Hard money, fix and flip and DSCR loans in Camden, NJ

Rowhouses similar to Philadelphia's are Camden's most common home type, so investors here often rehab rowhouses and hold them as rentals, or buy in historic pockets like Cooper Grant near Rutgers University-Camden and Fairview, the World War I planned village built for shipyard workers. Before buying, check the city's rent control ordinance, which reaches single-family rentals, and New Jersey's lead-safe rules.

Good to know

Before you buy in Camden

Local rules and costs that change a deal's numbers or closing date in Camden and Camden County. Sources are listed at the bottom of the page.
  • Check Camden's rent control ordinance, which covers buildings of one or more units; owner-occupied two-family houses and subsidized units are exempt, newly built and substantially rehabilitated multi-unit buildings are exempt for two years, and vacancy decontrol applies.
  • For rentals built before 1978, budget for a state-required lead-based paint inspection at tenant turnover or at least every three years, unless a valid two-year lead-safe certificate is in place.
  • Register buildings with three or more units with the state Bureau of Housing Inspection, which inspects multiple dwellings on a cycle.
  • Before selling or leasing a one- or two-family house, obtain a certificate of smoke alarm compliance; it is valid for six months.

How much can I borrow for a Camden flip?

Up to 95% of the purchase price and up to 100% of the rehab budget, on a 12–18 months interest-only loan. Those are maximums, subject to appraisal and underwriting: the property, your experience and the comps set what your loan gets.
