Burlington carries Vermont's only real urban market, stacked on a hillside above Lake Champlain in Chittenden County. The University of Vermont and Champlain College sit on the hill, Church Street Marketplace runs downtown, and the South End has turned old Pine Street industrial buildings into studios and offices. Every investor in the state watches this one.
Burlington is one of the Vermont markets Loan Goat lends in year round. Chittenden County files and deals in Concord, Manchester and Nashua are underwritten identically, on value, exit and the plan for the property.
Loan Goat is a direct private lender, not a broker, headquartered in San Diego and funding across 46 states. A Burlington borrower deals with the lender itself, not a broker shopping the file, which is the difference between a quote you can act on and a quote that needs a second opinion.
© THE COST BURLINGTON · VT
WHAT DO BURLINGTON HARD MONEY LOANS COST
Cost on a Burlington file is a function of the deal, not the market. Bridge opens at 9.00%. Residential runs to 75% LTV and commercial to 70%, on one or two year terms, and a clean file closes in 3 to 14 days.
The written quote comes before the appraisal, and it holds. For a Burlington deal on a clock, that is the difference between a real number and an indication. Prepay is free on the bridge programs, which matters when the plan is to be out inside a year.
| PROGRAM | RATES | LEVERAGE UP TO | TERMS | LOAN AMOUNTS |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BRIDGE LOAN | 9.00% to 13.00% | LTV 75% | 1 or 2 years | $150,000 to $25,000,000 |
| FIX & FLIP | 9.99% to 12.00% | LTV 85% of purchase, LTC 100% of rehab | 6 to 18 months | $250,000 to $10,000,000 |
| RENTAL DSCR | 6.50% to 9.99% Non-QM | LTV 80% | 5, 7, 30 and 40 year fixed | Sized to the property |
Starting rates for qualified borrowers, from the published terms cards. Points and fees are quoted on the Letter of Intent. Rates are subject to change without notice and are not a commitment to lend.
Those numbers are the ceiling and the floor. A Burlington deal gets priced inside them once the property and the exit are on the table, usually the same day the file is opened.

A private lender earns its rate by being fast and being sure. On Burlington property that shows up as a written quote the same day, an appraisal ordered only once the terms are agreed, and a wire inside a week. The rate buys the speed and the certainty.
Nineteenth-century wood-frame houses cut into two, three, and four unit rentals define the Old North End, with Victorians through the Hill Section, brick blocks downtown, and post-war capes filling the New North End. None of that is unusual here; it is the normal book.
Student rentals near UVM carry the market, and small multifamily buy-and-hold is the classic position. Value-add on tired triple-unit houses works, as does commercial repositioning in the South End arts corridor. Bridge covers the acquisition, fix and flip covers the work and the rental program takes it out.

HOW WE LEND IN BURLINGTON
Most lenders compete on one line of that table. This one is built to hold every line at once, which is why a Burlington borrower gets leverage and speed in the same quote rather than trading one for the other. If the numbers do not work, you are told early and directly.

BURLINGTON HARD MONEY LOANS, ANSWERED
Straight answers to what borrowers ask before they call. Questions we answer elsewhere link to the page that owns them.
-
Yes. Loan Goat funds investment property in Burlington and across Chittenden County on every program listed on this site: bridge, fix and flip, construction, rental property, commercial, owner occupied, bank financing, second and third mortgages and blanket loans. The desk is in San Diego, the capital is in house, and Burlington files are underwritten on the property rather than on where the borrower banks.
Request a quote -
Five to seven days is standard and low-doc bridge files have funded in as little as three. The timeline on a Burlington deal is usually set by title and escrow rather than by underwriting, because the credit decision is made in house by one person. Open title early and the wire follows the written terms.
How it works -
Non-owner-occupied residential from single-family up to four units, apartment buildings, mixed-use, retail, office, industrial and flex, self-storage, hospitality, manufactured housing and land across Chittenden County. Owner-occupied has its own program. If the Burlington asset produces or will produce value, there is usually a structure for it.
Property types -
Bridge or DSCR rental financing, depending on whether the building needs work first. Burlington is the seat of Chittenden County, and its two, three, and four unit conversions rarely fit a bank template, so Loan Goat underwrites the property and funds from in-house capital. Close in five to seven days, then sell or refinance with no prepayment penalty.
-
No prepayment penalty on the bridge programs. Pay the loan off the day the flip sells or the refinance funds and you owe interest for the days you used the money. That matters when the whole plan is to be in and out inside a year.
All loan programs -
Five to seven days is the standard, and low-doc bridge deals have closed in as little as three. Speed comes from the structure, not from cutting corners: in-house capital, one decision maker and minimal documentation. Title and escrow set the floor, so the sooner those are opened, the sooner the wire moves.
How funding works -
Credit is reviewed, but the property carries the decision. These are business-purpose loans on non-owner-occupied real estate, underwritten to value, exit and the strength of the deal. Investors turned down by a bank for self-employment, a recent event on file or thin documentation are routine business here.
Self-employed borrowers -
Bridge money runs from 9.00% to 13.00% and moves with leverage, property type, exit and experience. Rental loans price lower because the property carries the debt, from 6.50% on the Non-QM tier. Every quote is written before an appraisal is ordered, so you are never chasing a number that changes at the closing table.
