Residential Transition & Hard Money Lending in Virginia

Are you looking for quick, reliable financing for your real estate investments in Virginia? Crebrid is your trusted hard money lender, offering loan solutions designed for speed and efficiency. Whether you’re funding a fix-and-flip in Alexandria, securing bridge loans in Norfolk, or financing investment properties in Virginia Beach, our streamlined process ensures that you can act quickly and seize opportunities as they arise.

At Crebrid, we specialize in asset-based lending, which means we focus on the value of your property rather than your personal income. This approach allows us to provide fast, dependable capital to investors across Virginia, from major cities to emerging markets.

What is a Hard Money Loan?

A hard money loan (also known as a residential transition loan “RTL”) from Crebrid offers a practical and efficient alternative to traditional bank financing. Instead of relying on credit history and income verification, our loans are secured by the value of the property itself. This makes it easier for investors to access funds quickly, without the lengthy approval processes typical of conventional lenders.

Our hard money loans come with competitive rates and flexible terms, designed to help you close deals faster and with fewer obstacles.
