Why Wait for an Appraiser?

Big banks are backed up. Scheduling an appraisal can take 3 weeks. At S.O.S. Loans, we use Automated Valuation Models (AVM) to approve HELOCs under $400,000 instantly. No strangers in your house. No waiting.

🏗️ The Perfect ADU Loan

California's laws have made building an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) easier than ever. A HELOC is the perfect tool to fund it:

  • Interest-Only Payments: Keep costs low during construction.
  • Draw As You Go: Only pay interest on the cash you use to pay contractors.
  • Rental Income: Once built, the ADU rent often covers the HELOC payment!

S.O.S. Loans vs. Credit Unions

Credit Unions are great, but they are slow. We fund in as little as 5 days. If you have a contractor ready to start next week, you can't afford to wait 45 days for a bank.
