Direct Lender for Property Investors in the Southeast

Regardless of your of experience, Coastal Equity Group has a loan program suitable for you. While Novices can access funds at reasonable terms, return Borrowers can leverage past successes with lower rates and higher loan to value ratios. Our Loans are based on the actual asset. The asset is appraised on an after repair value by a BPO and appraisal. We lend up to 75% of the lower number.

We will evaluate the project and experience of the investor and see if it fits our company’s guidelines. The investor can be pre-approved in as little as one day, and closing can occur in as little as five. After someone is pre-approved, they can access and fully complete the application online and upload all necessary paperwork.

Please note: we do not offer loans for owner-occupied homes.
