GAP Equity Loans helps qualified property owners prepare and present well-organized private property-backed financing requests in Costa Rica. We lead the practical due diligence and organize the property, title, equity, documentation, loan purpose, repayment plan, and exit strategy into a clear lender-ready file.
Your Costa Rica Property Supports Private Financing
Many property owners in Costa Rica have real estate equity but still run into delays, income documentation problems, bank paperwork, or slow approval processes with traditional lenders.
GAP Equity Loans leads the practical due diligence lenders rely on, organizing the property, equity, title, documentation, loan purpose, repayment plan, and exit strategy for lender review.
Private property-backed financing is structured around Costa Rica real estate, the requested use of funds, and the overall file.
Built For Property Owners Who Need A Practical Review
A strong file includes clear property, equity, title, documentation, and repayment information.
GAP Equity Loans helps organize the file so private lenders can review it more clearly from the beginning.
Work With The Person Helping Lead The Process
As Director of Operations at GAP Equity Loans, Lawsen Tellier plays a key role in the day-to-day review, coordination, and follow-up of property-backed financing opportunities throughout Costa Rica.
Lawsen helps coordinate borrower intake, property information, document review, lender communications, transaction follow-up, and operational oversight. His background in construction, property review, and Costa Rica private lending gives borrowers a practical point of contact during the process.
For many borrowers, Lawsen helps organize the file, identify what may be missing, and keep the review moving toward a clear next step.
Why this matters: Property ownership is the starting point; a well-prepared file supports a clearer lender review.
Choose The Right Starting Point
Different borrowers contact us for different reasons. The best first step is to understand the property, the loan request, and what the funds will be used for.
Property-Backed Loans
For Costa Rica property owners ready to prepare a private property-backed financing request.

Understand the review process, the information lenders consider, and the path from due diligence to closing.
Loan Requirements
See what we normally need to begin reviewing a Costa Rica property-backed loan request.
Private Loans Are Usually Reviewed By Loan-To-Value
Loan-to-value simply means the loan amount compared to the property value.
Simple example: if a property is worth 500,000 US dollars and the loan request is 250,000 US dollars, that is 50 percent loan-to-value.
Property-backed loan requests start at US$50,000. No credit score is required. Terms range from 3 months to 3 years. Loan amounts are tailored to property value, title, equity, documentation, and the overall financing plan.
Typical Borrower Questions
How does private lender review work?
GAP leads the practical due diligence lenders rely on, focused on the property, equity, title, documentation, and repayment plan.
Can an existing mortgage still be reviewed?
Yes. The current debt, title situation, equity, and possible payoff structure need to be reviewed.
How fast can a qualified loan close?
Once the complete file is in and GAP due diligence is finished, qualified loans often close in about 10 business days.
