ABOUT DO HARD MONEY
Our CEO, Ryan G. Wright, began investing in real estate in 2001. Since then, he’s flipped hundreds of deals and been involved in every type of real estate transaction imaginable. With a currently active real estate investor leading us, you’re working with a company that understands the real challenges you face in getting funding and completing deals.
Hard money lenders typically have a background purely in finance. However, we provide experience and resources to teach you how to find deals, market them, negotiate the prices, and close on these properties before getting funding.
Fewer barriers for new investors
The lending system is broken. With most lenders you’ll need good credit and lots of money to flip houses. That is why most people who want to get started can’t do it.
That’s not how we work. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to build financial security for themselves. While we lend to experienced investors, a large percentage of our borrowers come to us because we make flipping your first deal possible.
True 100% financing
We’ll lend up to 100% of your purchase, rehab, and loan costs. If your loan won’t quite cover all your costs, we can teach you how to find more money to complete your deal.
Flexible loan programs to match any borrower’s goals
Many lenders have a couple of loan programs to fit their borrowers’ needs. We have 30. Are you looking for the most profit? Lowest cash-to-close? Cheapest loan costs? You tell us your current situation and your goals, and we’ll find a loan program to match.
Industry-best risk mitigation
Start with our Advanced Deal Analysis software to help you understand the viability of your deal. Then your deal undergoes a rigorous two-step evaluation process to give you and us maximum confidence. If all looks good, you’ll move ahead with a dedicated loan advisor and a former general contractor to help you manage your loan and the rehab process. We’re here the whole way.
