2710 Merle Hay Rd is a 1-bedroom, 1-bath home in Des Moines, Iowa listed at $48,000 with 480 square feet, built in 1936. The seller is asking for cash or hard money, so it is priced here on our fix and flip loan: an investor with 1 to 2 completed projects and a 740 score puts 20% down ($9,600), we fund the $52,800 renovation estimate in draws, and the loan closes in 2 weeks. The down payment steps with experience, credit and the size of the renovation. See every hard money opportunity in Iowa or our Iowa hard money lending page.
