Drake Ventures 

Professional Funding for "Retail-Plus" Residential Sprints

The Strategic Edge

Drake Ventures provides the construction liquidity for real estate operators who partner with high-equity homeowners. We fund the gap between a property’s current "dated" state and its maximum market potential.

The Ideal Deal Profile

Our funding is specifically designed for investment properties (no owner-occupied) with significant equity. This model works best for homeowners who:

• Own the property outright (Free & Clear).

• Owe a small balance relative to the current market value.

• Want Full Retail Price and are willing to partner for 6 months to get it.

Program Overview

• Lien Position: Drake Ventures holds the Senior Secured 1st Lien.

• Loan-to-Value (LTV): Total funding is up to 60% of the As-Is Appraised Value.

• Renovation: We fund 100% of the cosmetic budget (Paint, Carpet, Landscape, Fixtures).

• Ownership: We are NOT on the title. Ownership remains with the Operator/Seller LLC.

• Returns: We do NOT take a profit split. You and the Seller keep 100% of the equity upside.

• Monthly Requirement: Operator is responsible for all monthly interest and property carry (Taxes, Insurance, Utilities).

The Funding Process

1. The Partnership: Operator and Seller form an LLC and deed the property in.

2. The Appraisal: Drake Ventures orders an "As-Is" appraisal to confirm the 60% equity cushion.

3. The Closing: We record our 1st Position Lien and wire the 100% renovation capital.

4. The Sprint: You perform the 30-90 day refresh and list the property.

5. The Payoff: Upon sale, our loan is repaid, the Seller gets their retail ask, and you keep the profit.

2. LTV: Total loan request is no more than 60% of the current As-Is value.

3. Scope: Cosmetic "Lipstick" refresh only (Paint/Carpet/Landscaping).

4. Liquidity: You have the cash flow to handle monthly interest and property carry.
