In California’s fast-paced real estate market, timing is everything. Whether you’re buying a home, flipping an investment property, or helping a client close quickly, traditional mortgages can’t always keep up with the speed required to compete – nor always keep up with the rigid conventional financing borrower qualifications.
This is where private money lending comes in—a flexible, fast alternative financing solution, trusted by real estate professionals, investors, and homebuyers across the state.
What Is Private Money Lending?
Private money lending refers to real estate loans funded by private individuals or entities, rather than traditional banks or credit unions. These loans are asset-based—meaning they’re secured primarily by the property’s value rather than the borrower’s credit score or employment history. This type of financing is especially popular in California, where speed and adaptability can make or break a real estate deal.
Key Benefits of Private Money Loans:
- Fast approvals and funding – often within days.
- Flexible qualification criteria – less emphasis on credit, income and even property condition.
- Short-term solutions – ideal for bridge loans and fast purchases (private money is the next best thing to an all-cash offer!).
- Creative structuring – custom terms to match unique situations.
Whether you’re a borrower, real estate agent, investor, or mortgage broker, these features offer powerful advantages!
