Loan Goat lends across Delaware, in Wilmington, Newark, Middletown and Dover. You are an investor working New Castle and Kent counties: the rowhome rehab, the student rental near campus, the new build in a growing southern suburb, the small commercial building with tenants already in place. Business-purpose loans on non-owner-occupied property are the entire business, and they are funded with our own money.
Delaware packs a lot of market into a short drive. Wilmington is the corporate and banking center, with dense rowhome neighborhoods that reward disciplined renovation and a genuine rental base sitting behind them. Newark turns on the University of Delaware. Middletown and southern New Castle County are suburban new-build territory for commuters. Dover holds government, campus and air base demand, and the Sussex County beaches beyond it drive a serious short-term rental market.
San Diego is where we sit, Delaware is where we lend, and those two facts do not conflict. Loan Goat is a direct lender with in-house capital, so your file is read by the person who can approve it. There is no branch on Market Street, no committee in Dover, no regional credit officer to chase down. Bridge deals close in five to seven days, and some of them in three.
Wilmington investors buy brick rowhomes in neighborhoods like Trolley Square, Little Italy and Browntown, plus older multifamily near the Riverfront. Newark rentals serve University of Delaware students and staff, which keeps turnover predictable and leasing seasonal. Middletown is where new suburban construction and build-to-rent product goes up. Dover moves workforce rentals tied to Dover Air Force Base and Delaware State University, while coastal operators run short-term rentals toward Lewes, Rehoboth Beach and Bethany Beach.

© THE COST SAN DIEGO HQ · DELAWARE
WHAT DO DELAWARE HARD MONEY LOANS COST
A Delaware quote is built from the deal, not from the state. Bridge from 9.00% and up to 75% LTV on residential, 70% on commercial, one or two year terms and closings in 3 to 14 days. Every one of those is published, not negotiated in the dark.
Every Delaware file gets a full term sheet up front: rate, leverage, term, points and conditions, in writing, before third-party costs are incurred.
| 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.

A Wilmington rowhome bought at auction has a settlement date, not a preference. Banks cannot hit it. We can, because Loan Goat is the capital, and bridge loans price from 9.00% with up to 75% LTV and minimal documentation. Having no prepayment penalty means you can flip it inside a season or refinance it into a rental loan later without paying a fee for changing the plan.
Programs cover the whole state. Fix and flip for a New Castle County rehab, construction loans for a Middletown build, rental property DSCR for Newark student housing, commercial and blanket loans when the portfolio spreads across counties, second and third mortgages when the equity is already sitting inside your existing Delaware property. One decision maker, minimal paperwork, and the asset itself carrying the underwriting.

DELAWARE 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 investor real estate across Delaware, including Wilmington, Newark, Middletown and Dover. We are a direct private lender headquartered in San Diego, veteran-owned, with in-house capital and more than 1.3K closed loans since 2022. Bridge, fix and flip, construction, rental property DSCR, commercial and blanket loans all apply here. Call (619) 617-2797 and we will talk the deal through.
-
Rowhome rehabs in New Castle County are textbook fix and flip files. We lend against the property and its finished value rather than your income documents, and a clean bridge closes in five to seven days. Auction and estate purchases in Wilmington usually need certainty more than they need the lowest rate, and certainty is what a direct lender is built to deliver.
-
Newark rentals serving University of Delaware students underwrite as rental property, and our DSCR program leans on the lease and the asset instead of your personal returns. Houses needing work before the academic year begins start on a bridge loan and refinance once leased. Blanket loans are the cleaner structure if you already hold several Newark doors at once.
-
Kent County and southern New Castle County are open to us on the same terms as Wilmington. Dover workforce rentals near the air base and Delaware State University fit our rental property program, while Middletown new construction fits the construction loan. Nothing about sitting outside the Wilmington market changes the pricing, the documentation or the closing calendar we work to.
-
The address, the purchase price or current value, what you owe, what you plan to do with the property and how you intend to pay the loan back. That is enough for a written quote. Full-doc income packages are not part of the low-doc programs, which is why a quote arrives in hours rather than weeks.
Request a quote -
Single-family rentals, condos, townhomes, two to four unit buildings, apartment buildings, mixed-use, retail, office, industrial and flex, self-storage, hospitality, manufactured housing and land. Business-purpose and non-owner-occupied is the core of the book, with owner-occupied handled under its own program.
Property types -
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 -
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.
