You can have a great deal, a solid ARV, and even a motivated seller lined up — but if your funding doesn’t show up on time, none of that matters.

That deal dies.
Someone else swoops in.
And you're left wondering if you should’ve just paid cash or taken the hard money at 13% just to get it done.

If you’ve been there, you’re not alone. At Ziari Capital, we see it all the time — investors with good projects who just can’t get funded fast enough.

But it doesn’t have to be that way.
In fact, there’s a way to move through the funding process with clarity, speed, and confidence — without begging banks or uploading the same document five times.

Let’s break it down together.

The Real Problem Isn’t the Deal — It’s the Process

You probably know this by now:
Most deals don’t fall apart because they’re bad deals.

They fall apart because:

• The lender took too long to review
  
• Underwriting kept asking for “just one more thing”
  
• Pre-approval wasn’t really pre-approved
  
• You didn’t know where things stood until it was too late
  

It's not about how much experience you have. It’s about how quickly you can get a real answer.

So What Does a Fast, No-Nonsense Funding Process Actually Look Like?

Let’s start with what doesn’t belong in it:
❌ 45-minute intake calls
❌ Unclear requirements
❌ “We’ll get back to you by end of week”
❌ A dozen hoops to jump through

Here’s what the smarter investors do instead:

✅ They Get a Same-Day Pre-Approval

This isn’t a gimmick. It’s just a focused process.

You provide:

• Address (or just a zip code)
  
• Purchase price + rehab estimate
  
• Your exit strategy
  
• Closing timeline
  

That’s it.

With just those four pieces, you can get a real pre-approval — based on actual logic, not “we’ll see what underwriting says.”

✅ They Present a Clean Deal Summary

You don’t need a pitch deck. You just need clarity.

What’s the budget?
What’s the ARV?
What’s the plan — flip, BRRRR, wholesale?
How long is this going to take, and who’s helping you?

Even if you’re newer, putting this together helps you look serious — and gets you faster answers.

✅ They Work With Lenders Who Underwrite the Deal — Not Just the Borrower

Here’s a secret:
A lot of short-term lenders don’t care about your tax returns or FICO score.
What they care about is whether the deal makes sense.

If the numbers line up and the plan is solid, that’s what matters most.

✅ They Communicate Like a Pro

This one’s easy to overlook — but powerful.

Fast borrowers get funded because they respond fast.
They’re clear.
They ask questions.
They don’t leave lenders guessing.

You don’t have to be the most experienced.
You just have to be prepared, focused, and responsive.

What Slows Things Down (And How to Avoid It)

Let’s flip the lens for a minute.

Here are the most common mistakes we see from borrowers — and how you can stay far away from them:

🚫 Incomplete deal details
🚫 Changing the budget or timeline mid-process
🚫 Not knowing your numbers
🚫 Ignoring urgent lender questions

You don’t need to be perfect.
You just need to be consistent.
