How to Qualify

Common-Sense Underwriting

Quickly receive the capital you need with an equity-based loan. Private money loans, also commonly referred to as hard money loans, are funded by private investors rather than banks or other traditional lenders. Because our loans are funded with true private capital, we can often evaluate scenarios more flexibly than lenders operating under rigid institutional guidelines. Borrowers who can’t qualify for a bank loan may still meet our simple qualifications. All loans are secured by owner-occupied or non-owner-occupied residential and commercial real estate located in California.

Equity in a California Property

Sufficient equity in a residential or commercial property located in California.

Legitimate Loan Purpose

A clear business or real estate purpose with a viable repayment or exit strategy.
