Denver is the Front Range capital market, where investors sort neighborhoods by grid rather than by suburb. LoHi, Berkeley and Sloan's Lake carry the redevelopment story, RiNo turned warehouses into a district, Baker and Five Points hold the historic core, and Park Hill and Montbello serve the rental base. Capital comes for infill density.
Denver is one of the Colorado markets Loan Goat lends in year round. Denver County files and deals in Lakewood, Arvada and Westminster are underwritten identically, on value, exit and the plan for the property.
Loan Goat is a direct lender with in-house capital and no loan committee, headquartered in San Diego and funding across 46 states. A Denver 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 DENVER · CO
WHAT DO DENVER HARD MONEY LOANS COST
Pricing a Denver deal is straightforward. Bridge runs from 9.00% to 13.00% and moves with leverage and risk. Ask for more of the purchase price and the rate moves up; bring a stronger exit and it moves down. Residential bridge goes to 75% LTV and commercial to 70%.
Every quote is written before an appraisal is ordered, so a Denver investor knows the rate, the leverage, the term and the fees while there is still time to walk. No prepayment penalty on the bridge programs means a flip that sells in four months costs four months of interest, not twelve.
| 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 Denver 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 Denver 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.
Brick bungalows and Denver Squares from the early 1900s, mid century brick ranch across the eastern neighborhoods, garden level walk up apartments, and heavy timber and masonry warehouses through the RiNo industrial belt. That stock is exactly what the bridge and fix and flip programs are built for.
Pop tops and scrape and rebuilds define the inner neighborhoods, duplex conversions and carriage house units add density on alley lots, and warehouse to creative office or retail conversion still works in RiNo. Buy and hold stays strong across the eastern grid. The program follows the plan, not the other way round.

HOW WE LEND IN DENVER
The comparison is the operating rulebook: high leverage, speed to close, capital that is actually there, low documentation, in-house processing and a rate the deal earns. When a bank says no on a Denver file, this desk looks at the property. When the deal does not pencil, you hear it before the appraisal is ordered.

DENVER 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 Denver and across Denver 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 Denver 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 Denver 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 Denver County. Owner-occupied has its own program. If the Denver asset produces or will produce value, there is usually a structure for it.
Property types -
Yes. Denver and the rest of Denver County are active lending territory, covering fix and flip, ground up construction, bridge, DSCR rental and commercial. Loan Goat is a direct lender with in house capital, funding from San Diego with no local committee to satisfy. A Denver bungalow rehab or an alley infill build gets one decision and a five to seven day close.
-
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.
Bridge loan terms -
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.
