Hard Money Loans in Miami, Florida

Miami real estate moves on cash-equivalent terms far more often than most markets. Foreign buyers, entity ownership, condominium inventory and short closing windows are routine, and a conventional lender is frequently the reason a deal falls apart. Hard Money Loan Lender reviews business-purpose financing requests for Miami-Dade investment property and helps investors structure around the property rather than a lengthy income file.

Our Florida office is on SW 1st Avenue near Brickell, and we look at transactions across Miami, Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, Little Havana, Wynwood, Edgewater, Doral, North Miami and Miami Beach.

Miami Situations That Call for Private Financing

  • Purchasing a condominium or single-family home that needs renovation before resale or rental
  • Closing quickly on an off-market or auction property
  • Refinancing a maturing loan on a held rental or commercial asset
  • Repositioning a small multifamily or mixed-use building in a transitioning neighborhood
  • Financing through an LLC or foreign-owned entity
  • Carrying a property while insurance, inspection or association issues are resolved

Local Factors That Affect Underwriting

Property insurance cost and availability, windstorm and flood exposure, condominium association reserves and structural inspection requirements all influence value and the realistic exit in this market. Short-term rental rules also vary by municipality, which matters when the plan is to hold the property for income.

Disclosing these details early usually shortens the review rather than lengthening it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you review condominium purchases in Miami?

Condominium transactions are reviewed regularly. Association financials, reserves, litigation, inspection status and the percentage of investor-owned units can all affect what financing is available.

Can a foreign national borrow through a US entity?

Financing may be considered for business entities with foreign ownership. Entity formation documents, ownership structure, banking information and guarantees may be requested.

How does insurance affect the loan?

Property insurance is a closing requirement. In coastal Miami-Dade, premium cost and windstorm or flood coverage can affect the projected carrying cost and the exit, so quotes should be obtained early.

Are short-term rental properties eligible?

Certain short-term rentals may be considered. Municipal rules, permit status and documented revenue history all factor into the review.

Can I refinance a maturing Miami loan?

Bridge financing may be available to replace maturing debt while the property is sold, improved or refinanced into permanent financing, subject to equity and a credible exit.
