Referral Partner Program
How the program works, who to send, and exactly what to say. Everything here is written so you can copy it and send it as-is.
Section one
You make an introduction. That is the whole job. Everything after the handoff is ours.
Share your link, or just text us the person’s name and number. Either works. There is no form you have to fill out.
We reach out, work out what fits, and quote it. You get an email the moment your referral comes in, so you always know it landed.
We update you as it moves. You never have to chase us for status, and you are never the one delivering bad news.
You are a referral partner, not a licensed loan originator. That distinction matters legally, and staying on the right side of it is simple:
The safe version of every one of those is the same sentence: “I don’t know the numbers — that’s their side. Let me connect you.” It is a better answer anyway. It moves the conversation forward instead of putting you on the hook for something you cannot control.
Section two
Five moments where this financing solves a problem the person already has. If you hear one of these, send it — the conversation is already open.
Most of what fits looks roughly like this:
But do not screen on this. You are not underwriting anyone, and a deal that looks marginal to you may be perfectly ordinary to us — or may fit a program you have not heard of. If someone is investing in property and financing is anywhere in the conversation, send it. We would much rather look at ten and pass on seven than never see the three.
Section three
Each situation has two versions. Peer is a text or DM to someone you know — short, no pitch. Professional is an email to a client or someone you have a working relationship with. Anything in highlight is yours to swap.
They just finished a rehab
Peer · text or DMHey Name — saw the project came together, looks great. Quick thing in case it’s useful: if your cash is still tied up in it, there’s a refi that uses the current appraised value with no seasoning wait. Qualifies on the rent, not tax returns. Worth a look? your link
They just finished a rehab
Professional · emailSubject: Getting your capital back out of the property Hi Name, Congratulations on wrapping up the property. One thing that comes up a lot at this stage — most lenders make you wait six to twelve months before you can refinance at the new value, which leaves your capital sitting in the deal instead of working on the next one. There is a program that uses the current appraised value with no seasoning requirement, and qualifies on the property’s rent rather than your personal income. I am not the one to talk numbers, but I can point you at someone who is. Here is where to start: your link Happy to make the introduction directly if that is easier.
A bank turned them down
Peer · text or DMName — if the bank came back on your tax returns, that’s not the end of it. There’s financing that qualifies on what the property rents for instead of your personal income. No returns, no W2s. Different lane entirely. Here’s the short version: your link
A bank turned them down
Professional · emailSubject: Another route after a bank turndown Hi Name, You mentioned the bank came back on your tax returns. For what it is worth, that is an extremely common outcome for anyone taking depreciation and writing off expenses properly — it is a documentation problem, not a reflection of the deal. There is a lender I work with who qualifies investment property loans on the rent the property produces rather than personal income, so tax returns do not enter into it. I cannot speak to terms or whether you would qualify — that is their side of it. But if it is worth a look: your link
They are buying another rental
Peer · text or DMBefore you lock financing on that one — worth comparing against a DSCR loan. Qualifies on the rent, and it doesn’t hit your personal DTI, so it doesn’t box you out of the next one. your link
They are buying another rental
Professional · emailSubject: Worth comparing before you commit to financing Hi Name, Since you are looking at the property right now, one thing worth knowing before you commit to financing. A DSCR loan qualifies on the property’s rent rather than your personal income, and because of that it does not count against your debt-to-income. Practically, that means it does not limit what you are able to buy after this one — which tends to matter more than people expect on the third or fourth purchase. If you want it looked at alongside whatever you are being quoted: your link
They say they are maxed out
Peer · text or DMYou mentioned you’re maxed on conventional — that ceiling is a DTI thing, not a you thing. Property-qualified loans don’t stack against your personal DTI the same way, so the count doesn’t cap out like that. Might be worth a conversation: your link
They say they are maxed out
Professional · emailSubject: The limit you are running into may be the wrong one Hi Name, You mentioned you are at your limit on conventional financing. Worth knowing that the ceiling you are hitting is usually a debt-to-income calculation — which is a consumer lending measure, and a strange fit for someone building a portfolio. Financing that qualifies on the property’s income rather than yours does not accumulate against personal DTI in the same way, so the number of properties you already hold matters much less. I am not the right person for the specifics, but here is where to start: your link
Hard money or a bridge is coming due
Peer · text or DMName — how’s the exit looking on the property? If that note’s coming due, refinancing into long-term fixed on the rent is usually the cleanest way out, and there’s no seasoning wait to deal with. Worth starting early: your link
Reconnecting with someone you have not spoken to
Peer · text or DMHey Name — been a while, hope things are good. I started working with a lender that does investor financing — qualifies on what the property rents for instead of tax returns. Made me think of you and the rentals you picked up. No pitch, just figured you should know it exists: your link
They will ask about rates. Everyone does. The answer is always some version of:
“Honestly I don’t know — I’d be guessing, and that’s not something you want a guess on. Let me connect you with the person who can actually price it.”
Never a number, never a range. It protects you, and it is a stronger answer than a made-up estimate that turns out to be wrong.
Section four
A plain explanation of what happens next, written for the borrower rather than for you. Print it and hand it over, or screenshot it and send it.
Loans for rental property, qualified on the property rather than on you.
That is genuinely the whole list to get a real answer. No tax returns, no pay stubs, no bank statements at this stage.
Fifteen minutes on the property and what you are trying to do. You find out quickly whether this fits.
You get real numbers to compare against anything else you are looking at, before committing to anything.
An appraisal is ordered and the file moves. Closings commonly run ten to twenty-one days.
