Residential Bridge Note Fund

Invest in a diverse pool of short-term, real estate-backed loans with as little as $1,000, and returns starting at 10%+.

Passive real estate investment RBNF

When you invest in the Residential Bridge Note Fund, LLC (RBNF) you’re investing in a group of whole loans and fractional mortgages (Borrower Dependent Notes or BDNs) representative of the larger Fund That Flip portfolio.

Your investment purchases a series note issued by RBNF, which is a debt instrument. The underlying assets of the fund correlate to the performance of each underlying first-position mortgage. Additionally, the fund’s fixed interest rate generates monthly income via payments from borrowers and generates liquidity to repay the principal through repayment of the loan/mortgage.

Why Invest in Real Estate?

There are plenty of ways to earn passive income. And like any investment, real estate comes with risk, pros, and cons. But in the last two decades, only returns from investing in private real estate have performed better than equities on a risk-adjusted and absolute basis.

One of the key benefits of investing in real estate is that even in an economic downturn, the asset is tangible and still holds value. Moreover, real estate prices/values have historically surpassed inflation rates. Additional benefits from real estate investing include:

  • Protection against inflation
  • Better historical performance than equities
  • Passive income opportunities
  • Significant Tax advantages
  • Diversification due to lower correlation to public markets

Why Invest with Fund That Flip?

Earn up to 10.8% ReturnsWe’ve paid our investors millions in interest, and repaid more than 99% of principal. Since 2014, investors have earned an average annualized return of more than 10.8% with principal repayment typically in less than 10 months.

Strict Underwriting CriteriaOnly about 6%–8% of all projects submitted for funding meet our underwriting criteria. And unlike many other real estate investment platforms, we originate all of the loans available to invest in. 

Downside ProtectionWe pre-fund every deal on our Platform with a first-position mortgage that’s secured by a real asset — the property. In the event the project doesn’t go as planned, your downside is cushioned by the value of the actual property as well as the borrower’s equity.

We’re focused on forging long-term relationships with our customers to help them reach their investing goals and create long-lasting wealth.

What am I investing in when I invest in an RBNF?

When investors invest in notes issued by the Residential Bridge Note Fund, they’re also investing in a portfolio of whole mortgages and BDNs. Occasionally, RBNF may also extend a line of credit to FTF Lending, LLC to pre-fund mortgages. The mortgages and BDNs that RBNF holds are representative of the entire book of business. This allows investors to effectively invest in our entire book of business with one investment. Learn more here.

What are the risks of investing with Fund That Flip?

Like any investment, there are risks involved with investing in real estate debt. There are also mitigating factors to help cushion those debts.

For example. the market value of the property could drop significantly, reducing opportunity for the developer to make a profit. However, the property is most likely located in a stable market and was purchased at a discount providing downside protection in a falling-price environment.

Or the developer may be unable to finish the property in the allotted term length. For this situation, Fund That Flip builds in an optional 3-month extension, approved only if the project is advancing at a satisfactory pace. The extension corresponds with an additional fee to be shared on a pro-rata basis with investors.

Prior to investing, you should fully diligence each deal,  as well as consult your investment, tax and legal advisors prior to investing. Additional risks for each deal will be outlined with the Offering Materials.

What is passive real estate investing?

Passive real estate investing is what our lenders do: They invest money into an asset with the expectation of generating income. It’s the traditional definition of an investment. The lender’s time is not required to manage or operate that real estate asset. The asset (like a distressed home) is backed by a note and a first-position lien.

On the flip side, active real estate investing, or what our borrowers do, means investing both equity and time into an asset to generate income, such as being a landlord or rehabbing a home. Active real estate investors are responsible for any of the following: Sourcing properties for acquisition, getting financing, overseeing construction and contractor teams, and/or managing tenants.

+

What is an accredited investor?

Accredited investors must meet this criteria:

A net worth of at least $1 million, either alone or together with a spouse or spousal equivalent (excluding the value of the person's primary residence), or

Earned an income that exceeded $200,000 (or $300,000 together with a spouse or spousal equivalent) in each of the prior two years, and reasonably expects the same for the current year, or

A Series 7, 65, or 82 license in good standing.
