Good to know

Before you buy in Alaska

Local things that change a deal's numbers or its closing date. Check them before you make an offer.
  • In Alaska, the security deposit and prepaid rent together can't be more than two months' rent, unless the rent is over $2,000 a month; a pet deposit of up to one more month is allowed. Return or account for the deposit within 14 days of move-out, or 30 days if you deduct for damage or the tenant left without proper notice.
  • Alaska's landlord-tenant law sets no cap on rent increases: without a lease, a landlord can raise rent by any amount, but a month-to-month tenancy needs at least 30 days' notice before the new rent takes effect. Plan any increase on a DSCR refinance around that notice.

Questions

Loans in Alaska: common questions

Do you offer hard money loans in Alaska?

Yes. United Lending LLC offers private real estate financing for investors in Alaska: short-term fix and flip and bridge loans sized on the deal, 30-year DSCR loans sized on the rent, and construction and multifamily financing quoted per deal. We're headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, and lend nationwide.

Do you lend in Alaska?

Yes. United Lending LLC offers business-purpose financing on investment property across Alaska, including Anchorage and Fairbanks. Tell us the property's address on the form and a loan officer will confirm the details on the first call.

Which loans can I get for a Alaska property?

Fix and flip loans of up to 95% of the price and 100% of the rehab budget, and bridge loans up to 95% loan-to-cost, both on 12–18 months interest-only terms. DSCR rental loans are 30-year loans on 1–4 unit rentals, fixed or adjustable, up to 85% loan-to-value on a purchase and 80% on a cash-out refinance; those are separate limits, not one combined offer. Construction and multifamily loans are quoted per deal. All limits are subject to appraisal and underwriting, and every loan is for property you invest in, not a house you or a relative will occupy.

Is there a prepayment penalty on a Alaska loan?

There's no prepayment penalty on fix and flip or bridge loans. DSCR rental loans come with a choice of prepayment terms, from none up to five years, set out in your written terms before you commit.

Do I need to live in Alaska or have an LLC there?

No. Many of our borrowers invest outside the state they live in. You can borrow in your own name or through an LLC; if the LLC was formed in another state, your loan officer will tell you what's needed before closing.
