Our loans are based on After-Repaired Value (ARV), funding up to 90% of total project costs. With streamlined underwriting and technology that minimizes delays, you can move from approval to closing quickly.

Our process helps Arkansas investors scale faster while maintaining discipline across multiple projects. Each step—from approval through draw management and final payoff—is backed by digital tools, transparent communication, and a team that understands real estate from the inside out.
