Bridge The Gap With Us
Gap Investors Ltda is a Costa Rican company (Registration No. 3-102-258902), incorporated in 2000, specializing in brokering secured equity loans to provide funds for a borrower in Costa Rica.
Home equity loans are used by homeowners to unlock some of their real estate value to meet their cash flow needs, for uses such as home improvements, consolidate debts, pay for major purchases such as vehicles, and much more. The same concept is applied to commercial lending for companies in need of cash to finance operations growth or for commercial property owners to provide necessary maintenance (such as roof repair) or improvement to their commercial rental properties to maximize rental income.
Equity loans are used by developers with existing equity to "bridge the gap" to the point where conventional bank loans are within reach. Borrowers who own real estate with high development potential can use gap financing to get their projects off the ground quickly and reach the point where an established bank will finance their projects at conventional interest rates.
Gap Investors brings years of experience in investing in Costa Rica, with legal, marketing and development expertise working to maximize your investment returns.
The key elements of bridge financing are:
- Length of time
- Location
- Amount of funds required
- Nature of transaction
- Terms and conditions of transactions
- Underlying market for the assets involved
- Financial strength of the borrower
While open to opportunities wherever they can be found, Gap has focused on scenarios in which it has demonstrated expertise in gap or bridge financing. We provide a unique private financing alternative to property owners, enabling them to seize new opportunities and/or add value to their existing properties. Thanks to the hands-on development background and experience of our principals, we specialize in non-conventional situations usually requiring quick closings.
