PrideCo was established in 2006 and we began lending in real estate in 2009. We are a CFL licensed private lender and we lend our own money. Since our inception, we have continued to focus on key markets in California. We provide a private hard money lending platform for seasoned real estate investors. All of our loans are non-consumer, non-owner occupied.

SMALL TEAM, HIGH TOUCH, QUICK CLOSE

We work with other hard money lenders in California. We focus on major markets in Southern California and the San Francisco Bay Area with a few deals in Minnesota and Wisconsin.

Ultimately our focus stays with markets we know well and will perform well in up or down markets. Because we have offices in multiple locations it helps us keep a pulse on current market fluctuations and trends; as well as relationships with brokers and borrowers experienced in these locations.
