What Is a Private or Hard Money Loan?

A private loan is a real estate-secured loan provided by a non-bank, private lender. These loans are often referred to as hard money loans or as equity-based loans because they are based on the “hard asset” — the property itself, rather than the borrower’s credit score or income.

Unlike traditional banks, private lenders and hard money lenders focus on the value and potential of the property, making these loans ideal for borrowers who need quick approvals, flexible terms, and financing for unconventional or time-sensitive projects.


Loan Programs

We work with private lenders and mortgage lenders who offer a wide array of asset-based lending programs designed for real estate investors and developers:

Residential & Condo Loans: For investment properties including single-family homes, condominiums, and 1-4 units residential buildings. Perfect for fix-and-flip, rental portfolios, or short-term bridge financing.

Commercial Real Estate: Funding for offices, retail centers, industrial spaces, and mixed-use properties. Tailored for acquisitions, repositioning, and development projects.

Multi-Unit Properties: Specialized financing for apartment complexes, duplexes, and larger multi-family buildings. Available for both purchase and refinance.

Land & Construction: Private loans for raw land acquisition, entitlement, site development, and ground-up construction in Miami and throughout Florida.

Fix-and-Flip Projects & Fixer-Uppers: We also facilitate financing for fix-and-flip projects, renovation loans, and fixer-uppers, giving investors access to fast capital for time-sensitive opportunities where traditional banks may fall short.

Airplane Financing : We help borrowers access strategic private financing solutions for the purchase of airplanes and private aircraft. Through our network of experienced private lenders and aviation finance professionals, we connect you with capital partners who understand the specialized nature of aircraft transactions.

Foreign National Mortgages: Real estate financing options for international investors seeking to acquire residential or commercial properties in Florida, without the traditional documentation required by U.S. banks.

Why Borrowers Choose Private Lending

Private lending offers advantages that traditional financing can’t match, especially when timing, flexibility, or unconventional deal structures are involved.

  • Asset-Based Decisions: Approval is primarily based on the value and potential of the property, not just personal credit or income.
  • Speed and Flexibility: Fast access to capital (often in days), with flexible loan terms and structures.
  • Broad Project Scope: Financing available for residential, commercial, multi-unit, land, construction, and unique asset classes.
  • Direct Access to Decision-Makers: Your project will be reviewed by experienced private lenders who can evaluate your opportunity and respond quickly and directly if they’re interested.
