Loan Types & Rates


  • Alternative and private money loans carry a greater risk and speed premium compared to traditional bank loans. Unlike conventional loans, business growth capital and bridge loans can fund quickly without the lengthy bank approval process. The flexible terms and faster access to capital reflect this premium.

  • A bridge loan is a short-term financing solution that 'bridges' the gap until permanent financing is secured or a property is sold. Bridge loans are faster to obtain, have flexible terms, and are ideal when you need to move quickly on an opportunity.

  • We offer loans ranging from $25,000 to $500,000+, depending on your needs, assets, and loan type. Commercial Real Estate and multifamily projects may qualify for larger amounts.

  • Yes! Our Fix & Flip loans are designed for real estate investors looking to purchase, renovate, and resell properties quickly. We offer competitive rates and fast funding so you never miss a deal.

Process & Funding

Repayment & Terms


  • We offer flexible loan structures including options with no prepayment fees, giving you the freedom to settle your loan on your own terms. This is especially valuable if your business cash flow allows early repayment.

  • Repayment terms vary by loan type and amount. Short-term bridge loans typically range from 6–24 months, while business growth capital can have longer terms. We'll structure a repayment plan that aligns with your cash flow.

  • Yes! Many of our clients refinance into longer-term financing once they've stabilized their business or property. We'll help you transition at the right time.
