Property management financing — keep every property maintained and every vendor paid
Loot offers property management companies an unsecured business line of credit from $5,000 to $100,000. Use it to pay maintenance vendors and contractors before owner or HOA disbursements clear, cover a seasonal repair surge, or give your company the room to onboard a new portfolio without straining cash already committed to properties under management. Established property management companies with 1+ year in business and $200K+ in annual revenue can check their options with a soft pull. Requests up to $30K get an instant decision, while larger requests may take a few more minutes.


Property management challenges: vendor payment timing, seasonal maintenance surges, and portfolio growth
Property management companies often front payment to maintenance vendors and contractors for repairs, then wait for the cost to be reconciled through the next owner or HOA disbursement cycle. A burst pipe, a storm, or a run of HVAC failures in the same week doesn't wait for that cycle to catch up. When a company wins a new portfolio of properties and needs to staff up or license new software fast, the cash gap can widen further.

Where a property management line of credit does the heavy lifting
Six moments when a property management company's cash flow needs backup — and how a Loot line of credit can help.
Pay vendors and contractors before owner disbursements clear
Repair and maintenance vendors often expect payment on completion, while the cost isn't reconciled with the property owner or HOA until the next disbursement cycle. A line of credit can help cover the vendor invoice so repairs aren't delayed waiting on that cycle.
Cover a seasonal maintenance surge
A cold snap that bursts pipes, a storm that damages roofing, or a summer run of HVAC failures can multiply repair costs across a portfolio in the same week. A line of credit can help fund the surge without pulling cash from properties that aren't affected.
Cover payroll for maintenance techs and leasing staff
Maintenance technicians, leasing agents, and on-site property managers still need to be paid on schedule, regardless of when management fees or owner reimbursements land. A line of credit can help keep payroll current through any timing gap.
Prepay property management software and licensing
Property management platforms, accounting software, and tenant screening tools often bill annually or require upfront license commitments. A line of credit can help cover the renewal without disrupting funds set aside for vendor payments.
Ramp up for a newly won property portfolio
Onboarding a new portfolio of rental units or HOA communities can mean hiring additional staff and standing up new vendor relationships before the first management fee is collected. A line of credit can give a company the working capital to onboard fast.
Cover turnover costs between tenants
Make-ready repairs, cleaning, and touch-up work between a departing and incoming tenant often need to happen fast to avoid vacancy, before the next month's rent resumes. A line of credit can help fund turnover costs so units get back on the market quickly.
How a property management line of credit helps
A business line of credit for property management companies provides flexible capital to pay vendors and cover maintenance costs while owner and HOA disbursements are still processing. Draw loot when needed, repay as disbursements and management fees come in, and keep every property maintained.

How a Loot line of credit works for a property management company
Say your company needs $17,000 to pay contractors for storm-related roof and gutter repairs across several properties while owner disbursements are still processing. With Loot, you can draw $17,000 from your approved line.
Before you confirm, you choose a fixed weekly repayment plan upfront, such as 16, 20, or 24 weeks. You see the total cost before you move forward.
If owner disbursements clear sooner than expected and you pay the draw off early, there is no prepayment penalty. Paying off early can save up to 50% of remaining fees.
As you repay, your line revolves — the funds become available again as you pay down the draw. Same-day approval is standard, decisions happen in minutes, and once approved, same-day funding is available for a $49 transfer fee.
Requirements for property management financing
To qualify with Loot, your property management company needs:
1+ years
$200k+
None
Checking eligibility is a soft pull, so it does not impact your credit score, approved or not. Loot looks at real business cash flow, not just a credit score.
