Echo Funding in Mississippi | Swift Deal Funding
Echo funding in Mississippi
Echo funding advances the down payment an end buyer needs at closing and is repaid out of the seller’s proceeds — your assignment fee. The buyer brings less cash to the table, the deal closes, and our advance plus a flat 2.5% comes off the settlement statement. Typical funded amounts in Mississippi run $15,000–$60,000, with capacity up to $10 million per transaction.
Mississippi is one of the most affordable states in the country, with median prices around the $170Ks, so both down payments and assignment fees tend to be smaller in dollar terms than in pricier markets. The trade-off is volume: investor activity is steady in Jackson, the Gulf Coast (Gulfport and Biloxi), Hattiesburg and the Memphis-adjacent suburbs of Southaven and Olive Branch. Echo fits the wholesaler who has a real fee and an end buyer that’s short on the down payment — as long as the fee clears the funded amount plus 2.5%.
How Echo closes in Mississippi
Mississippi is an attorney-closing state in practice, so closings are conducted by a licensed attorney and the Echo advance plus its repayment run through the attorney’s trust account and settlement statement. We wire the down payment in; at closing the attorney pays your assignment fee from seller proceeds, repays our advance plus the flat 2.5%, and releases your net. Mississippi is also a wet-funding state, so funds must be in trust before recording. Loop your closing attorney in early with the Echo figures, and confirm the disbursement order and timing with counsel before the date.
Pricing
Flat 2.5% of the funded amount, collected on the closing statement. No application, origination, or upfront fees. A $25,000 funded down payment costs $625.
What you’ll need

- Executed assignment contract showing your assignment fee
- Assignment fee large enough to cover the funded down payment plus the 2.5% fee
- Closing attorney’s confirmation that title is ready to disburse with the Echo repayment included
No credit check, no income verification, no tax returns. Mississippi note: because counsel runs the closing, share the Echo numbers with your attorney up front.
A typical Mississippi Echo scenario
You’ve assigned a three-bed in Jackson for a $22,000 fee, and your end buyer is $15,000 short on the down payment. Echo wires the $15,000 to the closing attorney’s trust account; at closing the attorney pays your $22,000 fee from seller proceeds, repays us $15,000 plus $375 (2.5%), and you net $6,625. The buyer closes with less cash up front, and your assignment doesn’t collapse over their shortfall.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Echo work with Mississippi's attorney closings? +
Mississippi closings are customarily handled by a closing attorney, so the Echo advance and its repayment run through the attorney's trust account and settlement statement rather than a title company alone. We fund the buyer's down payment in; at closing the attorney pays your assignment fee from seller proceeds, repays our advance plus the flat 2.5%, and disburses your net. Give your attorney the Echo figures early so the disbursement is documented cleanly, and confirm timing with counsel.
Does Echo work on Mississippi's low-priced homes? +
It depends on the spread. Echo only works when your assignment fee covers the funded down payment plus 2.5%. Mississippi has very affordable housing — medians around the $170Ks — which keeps both the down payment and the fee smaller in absolute terms. On a well-bought Jackson or Gulf Coast deal with a solid spread, the fee usually clears the funded amount comfortably. We confirm the numbers work before approving so you're not surprised at the table.
