Direct Private Lender
Fulford Lending is not a broker; we lend family funds and service each of our loans. Fulford Lending is able to fund loans on both residential (investment properties) and commercial properties.

Prior to starting Fulford Lending in 2006, and for over 50 years, we have been involved in all aspects of real estate in the Greater Washington DC metropolitan area. We owned/own and operate various enterprises which include development, construction and management of all types of real estate ventures from simple single family rehabs, new construction, tenant build-outs, rentals (i.e. shopping centers, office buildings and even single family investment properties), farming and forestry. Our knowledge of the subject matter means you’re speaking with someone who understands your needs and can package a loan meeting those needs.
A Fast Common Sense Approach To Hard Money
As you start the process of looking for financing we would like to note the differences between Fulford Lending and other lenders. First, whenever you speak with us you are speaking with a decision maker who has in all likelihood experienced the particularities of your situation. The money that we lend is our money, and therefore, our decisions are based on a common sense approach. This allows us to make quick decisions and offer flexibility in our loan terms specific to your needs. Over sixty percent of our borrowers are repeat customers, which we believe is a direct result of our interest only rates, as well as our flexibility and our desire to make sure that our loans are viable in all respects for the success of our borrowers.
