For qualified Clear Lake and Lake County residential projects, we can often fund loans in as little as 3-5 business days, with most loans closing within 7-10 business days.

What types of residential properties do you lend on in Clear Lake?

We lend on a wide range of residential property types across Clear Lake and surrounding Lake County, including single-family homes, 2-4 unit properties, and small multifamily buildings (up to 20 units).
