Our Private Money Lending Services
Fix & Flip Loans
We provide comprehensive financing for both acquisition and renovation costs on your investment properties. No property appraisals required, no income verification, and no lengthy paperwork. Our asset-based lending approach focuses on the property's value and potential. Since we fund exclusively with our private capital, we offer an exceptionally quick and adaptable process. Typical closing timeframe is 3-5 business days once title work is completed.
Rental Property Loans
Do you own rental properties that need capital extraction for renovations or additional investment opportunities? Our streamlined process requires no formal appraisals, no tax return documentation, and minimal red tape. This collateral-based lending approach allows us to move quickly since we deploy our private funds exclusively. Most transactions close within one week of title clearance.
Commercial Hard Money Loans
We specialize in financing multi-family properties and various commercial real estate types for both acquisitions and refinancing. Our typical closing timeline is under 10 business days because we maintain complete control over our private funding sources. We streamline our due diligence process to ensure rapid, flexible transactions with minimal documentation requirements.
