5 Melbourne St #2 is a 2-bedroom, 1-bath home in Dorchester, Massachusetts listed at $240,000 with 641 square feet, built in 1962. 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 10% down ($24,000), we fund the $28,845 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 Massachusetts or our Massachusetts hard money lending page.
