What is a soft deposit for commercial real estate?

An amount ranging from 1% to 15% of a property’s purchase price that sellers can demand to be paid as a sign of commitment. This is also known as an “earnest money deposit” or “good faith deposit.”

Soft deposit is not a downpayment and is normally fully refundable until the hard commitment phase.

Soft deposit amount min $25 000
Soft deposit term min 15 days

Pay some of the lowest commission around

High commission rates are a major dealbreaker for many potential real estate borrowers, as many lenders base their fee on the property price. 1% of the price may look tempting, but it means fees often reach six figures. Nice work if you can get it.

Duckfund solves this issue by charging a deposit-based rate instead, leading to a fraction of the value-based price.

What you see is what you pay. No hidden charges or interest rates, no monthly payments, just a one-off upfront charge*
