What we do

Bridge loans

Short-term, first-lien loans on non-owner-occupied single-family homes, made to investors and operators in North Carolina and Virginia. Business purpose only, and every loan is subject to underwriting.

What we lend on

Buying businesses

We buy owner-operated businesses and own them for the long term. The process is straightforward, and it starts with a direct conversation.

03 / How we lend

How we lend

Five ideas guide how we lend. Here is what each one means in practice.

Asset-based.: We lend against the property and the plan for it.
Disciplined underwriting.: We review the property, the budget and the exit on every loan.
A long-term perspective.: We want to fund your next deal too.
Niche opportunities.: Deals too small, too fast or too specific for a bank's process.
Speed, transparency and alignment.: Say no early, show the math, and want the same outcome you do: a finished project and a loan repaid on schedule.

We would rather be your lender on the fifth project than only the first.
