Things You Need to Know About Private and Hard Money Lending
We started in your shoes. As a real estate investor, you are always in search of potential real estate acquisitions, and know that one could appear at any given moment. When an opportunity presents itself, you need a private money lender who is able to recognize a good deal. You and your team need to be ready to close fast and reliably to secure a winning bid at an auction, finalize your contract to purchase deadline, or meet your purchase and sale agreement performance dates. We understand how crucial it is to not be in breach of your obligations. For these reasons, time to close is of incredible importance.
When you turn to a local private money lender in Massachusetts such as DeNovus, you are receiving fair private money loan terms. You are also working with a flexible private lender who understands what your investment objectives are for the project. Additionally, we strive to understand your obligations before, during, and after your closing.

Banks and mortgage companies can be slow to react and may not understand the business of real estate investing as well as private lenders. By contrast, as private lenders, we can provide private capital based on the value and potential of your project, not on your financial past or credit score.
You can count on us for a streamlined and efficient process, with reliable funding for meeting acquisitions, draw schedules, over budget requests, and exit strategy. Our background as real estate investors and a local private lender culminates with a unique experience with asset-based lending from first, second, third, and fourth mortgages, equity co-investments, renovations, wholesaling, and new construction. We have a network of experienced real estate professionals ready to assist.
Communication and site control are vital to confidentiality and quickly closing your loan. As soon as a clean title is obtained, we have the ability to close your private money loan as quickly as five to ten business days. In comparison, the industry average is typically fourteen business days for a simple transaction.
Perhaps you are a real estate investor with an exciting opportunity before you, but without the funds to see it through. You may be a developer who needs to move fast on an acquisition in order to maximize profitability through a bargain price. Maybe you’re a real estate agent or broker who works with investors and needs a reliable lending partner to help them get their projects funded faster to give you the edge when negotiating the purchase price. Hard money lending can get your deal moving faster and keep it moving forward.
Unlike traditional sources of financing, we can create flexible terms for your real estate loan, customized to your project and to the way you work. We provide money for every stage of your project, from initial acquisition to renovation, and refinancing to debt restructuring. Our company offers first and second mortgages and a variety of lending options for projects in Massachusetts, Cape Cod, Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard, New England, and Florida.
We are interested in a long-term, ongoing relationship with our borrowers. Unlike other hard money providers, we are not arbitrage lenders who enter into an agreement, then sell the loan to a hedge fund or financial institution. That can lead to a decline in the quality of the underwriting standards as well as the loss of the relationship between the investor and lender. We’re not looking for profitability through the sale of the loan. We understand that the real profit potential lies in the repositioning or improvement of the property.
At DeNovus Capital, we think of all of our borrowers as repeat clients. Our team knows that if we treat you right the first time, there will be future opportunities to work together towards profitable deals. Because our decades of experience are rooted in the industry of residential and commercial real estate and development, we speak your language when it comes to initial acquisition, draw schedules, and exit strategies. We know that the profit is in the purchase, so we provide a fast and streamlined process to help you get your deals done faster and put you in a stronger negotiating position.
