Arizona Hard Money Lending Insights from a Local Lender

Phoenix, Arizona has been and continues to be a hot bed for real estate investors. According to Brett Tanner of Versara Capital, many people from different parts of the country have always migrated into Arizona rather than out of it. “If you look at the people coming in and out, there’s always more people coming into Arizona, and that is going to continue to happen,” he says. According to Versara Capital, Mariscopa County in specific, is the ideal environment for real estate investors and hard money lenders. “Mariscopa County has long been the county with more real estate transactions than any other county in the country,” Brett says. Brett also suggests that northern Central Phoenix is a hot market right now with a lot of rehab activity. Investors look for properties built in the 1970s to 1990s that have never been renovated and convert them into more modern homes. “They’re going to go in there and do all the deferred maintenance and make it new. And we see that in a lot of the markets throughout the valley,”Brett says.

In Arizona, the competition among lenders mirrors that of other states. There are small to medium-sized companies that lend using their own capital and assets, like Versara Capital, alongside larger companies with more complex processes that may result in longer processing times.

Another reason Arizona is a popular market for investors is the growth in job opportunities. Brett says, “There are tons of people in the job space, employers are coming in here creating jobs which creates opportunity.”
