The payoff is due in nine days. Your lender extended you twice and has stopped returning calls. The asset is fine — the calendar is the problem.
This is the situation almost nobody prices honestly. Most emergency capital gets quoted after the lender has your file, your deadline, and a clear read on how few options you have left. By then the conversation is not really a negotiation.
F.L.E.X. 50™ is CR Equity AI’s answer to that, and the terms are published before you apply: up to 50% LTV, a flat 15% rate, 6 points, no minimum FICO, funded in 24 to 48 hours once title is clear. Seeing your terms takes five minutes, costs nothing, runs on a soft credit pull, and commits you to nothing. Below is exactly what that buys, and exactly what it costs.
Why the calendar got tighter
The Mortgage Bankers Association put $875 billion of commercial mortgage debt on the 2026 maturity schedule — 17% of the $5.0 trillion outstanding. The number that matters more is behind it: after three years of routine extensions, MBA chief economist Mike Fratantoni described 2025 as the year lenders stopped simply extending loan terms.
Owners who assumed a maturity would roll are finding out otherwise, often with weeks rather than months of notice. That is the gap this loan was built to cover.
The price, before you apply
Every one of these numbers is published on the program page. Nothing here is quoted after we see how urgent your situation is.
| Term | F.L.E.X. 50™ |
|---|---|
| Max LTV | Up to 50% |
| Interest rate | Flat 15% |
| Origination | 6 points |
| Interest reserve | 12 months, prepaid |
| Lien position | First position required |
| Minimum FICO | None |
| Funding speed | 24–48 hours once title is clear |
| Documentation | No tax returns, W-2s, or bank statements |
That pricing is not an accident and it is not a long-term structure. It reflects minimal underwriting, broad asset coverage, and execution measured in hours. If your timeline is comfortable, this is the wrong loan and a cheaper one exists — including ours.
What you are trading away
Four constraints do the work here, and it is better to know them now than at the title company.
- The 50% cap is real. Half the value, not a starting point that stretches with a strong file. If you need more advance, a full bridge or fix-and-flip file goes considerably higher — and takes longer.
- First position is required. If we cannot hold first lien, we cannot fund. There is no junior or mezzanine structure behind this program.
- The interest reserve is prepaid for 12 months. Budget for it in your net proceeds rather than discovering it in the closing statement.
- The exit has to be real. Minimal documentation does not mean minimal scrutiny. A clear exit strategy is the one thing that is not optional.
What we do not ask for: tax returns, W-2s, bank statements, or a credit score above any threshold. What we do ask for: clear title, property information, entity documents, proof of liquidity, and the exit.
Nine situations this was built for
Deal collapsing? Get terms in minutes.Terms in five minutes. No fee, soft credit pull, no commitment — and a real number, not a range that moves once we know your deadline.
When something is about to go wrong
- Urgent payoffs. Immediate liquidity to prevent a default that would cost far more than the points.
- Rescue capital. Another lender backed out at the last minute and the closing date did not move with them.
- Distressed refinance. Stabilize or reposition the asset quickly instead of selling it into a bad market.
When speed decides who wins
- Auction purchases. Auction terms do not accommodate a 45-day financing contingency. This closes in days.
- Acquisition liquidity. Secure the next asset now and arrange permanent financing on your own schedule.
- Bridge-to-sale. Liquidity while the asset is marketed, so you are not negotiating from a forced position.
When the capital stack has to change
- Partner buyouts. Take a partner out without selling the asset underneath the partnership.
- Bridge-to-stabilization. Fund the lease-up or the remaining work, then refinance into a longer structure.
- Cash-out for business expansion. Release trapped equity against real property on a business timeline.
How it actually runs
- Tell us about the deal. The property, the number, and what you are trying to do. Two minutes, soft credit pull, no documents up front.
- AI-driven underwriting reads the file. Underwriting, title, appraisal and risk modeling run through a single automated pipeline, compressing into minutes what used to take weeks. Term sheets come back nearly instantly rather than after a committee cycle.
- Title clears, we fund. 24 to 48 hours once title is clear — as little as 24 hours in expedited scenarios. CR Equity AI lends its own capital, so there is no committee meeting on Thursday.
Where F.L.E.X. 50™ sits against our other programs
The honest comparison is not against a bank — it is against our own slower, cheaper products. Pick by which constraint is binding.
| F.L.E.X. 50™ | Full bridge / Fix & Flip | |
|---|---|---|
| Max LTV | Up to 50% | Up to 95%, or 100% on qualified flips |
| Documentation | Minimal — lite-doc file | Full bridge document set |
| Speed | 24–48 hrs once title is clear | 24–48 hrs on a clean file |
| Pricing | Flat 15%, 6 points | Sized to the deal and your track record |
| Underwritten on | Asset value and exit | Track record, credit, and ARV |
| Best when | Documentation or credit is the obstacle | Advance rate is the obstacle |
If you clear the experience and credit grid, the fix-and-flip and refinance programs will give you materially more advance for a heavier file. F.L.E.X. 50™ exists for the cases where that file is not available in the time you have.

Frequently asked questions
How fast can F.L.E.X. 50™ actually fund?
24 to 48 hours once title is clear, and as little as 24 hours in expedited scenarios. Term sheets generate in minutes. Title is almost always the gating item, not credit or underwriting — which is why starting title early is the single best thing you can do for the timeline.
Why is the rate 15% with 6 points?
Because the program is engineered for speed and flexibility in emergent situations, not for long-term holds. The pricing reflects minimal underwriting, fast execution, and broad asset coverage. It is published up front precisely so you can weigh it against the cost of missing your date rather than discovering it after we have your file.
What if my credit score is low?
There is no minimum FICO. We underwrite the asset and the exit strategy rather than the borrower’s score. This is one of the few places where a credit problem genuinely does not gate the loan.
What documentation do you need?
No tax returns, W-2s, or bank statements. Clear title, property information, entity documents, proof of liquidity, and a clear exit strategy.
Can I refinance out of F.L.E.X. 50™?
Yes, and most borrowers do — that is the design. Many use it as emergency bridge financing and then refinance into a longer-term CR Equity AI structure once the asset is stabilized. Plan that takeout at origination rather than in month ten.
Can you fund a second-position loan?
No. First position is a requirement of the program, and there is no mezzanine or junior structure behind it.
Can ITIN holders and foreign national investors use F.L.E.X. 50™?
Yes — both are eligible. Advance rate is set by your track record and may be reduced at final underwriting, and additional documentation is usually required. If you have been turned away elsewhere on documentation status rather than on the deal, this is worth a conversation.
