Orlando runs on two engines: the attractions corridor southwest of the city and the employment growth around downtown, Lake Nona and the university on the east side. College Park, Thornton Park and Mills 50 hold the walkable older housing, the vacation home subdivisions sit near the parks, and the suburban ring keeps expanding outward.
Every program on this site is available on Orlando property and across Orange County. Investors who also buy in Lakeland, Palm Bay and Tampa run those deals through the same desk, which is the point: one lender who already knows the borrower, the entity and the exit strategy.
The desk is in San Diego, the capital is in house and the decision is made by one person. That is why an Orlando file can go from a phone call to written terms the same day and to a wire in five to seven days. There is no branch to visit and no committee sitting between the deal and the money.

WHAT DO ORLANDO HARD MONEY LOANS COST
There is no Orlando rate sheet separate from the national one. Bridge from 9.00%, up to 75% LTV on residential, one or two year terms, and loans from $150,000 to $25,000,000 on business purpose files. The property and the exit set the number, not the ZIP code.
An Orlando file gets a full written term sheet up front: rate, leverage, term, points and conditions. Nothing gets re-traded at the table. No prepayment penalty on bridge, minimal documentation, and funding in five to seven days.
| 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 are the published ranges, not a teaser. Where an Orlando deal lands inside them depends on the property, the leverage and the exit. The fastest way to a real number is the address, the price and the plan.

Most Orlando investors arrive here after a bank fell through late. What they get instead is a lender with its own money, minimal documentation, no loan committee and no prepayment penalty. 1.3K+ closed loans since 2022 is the reason the timeline holds.
1920s bungalows in the inner neighborhoods, concrete block ranch across the suburbs, purpose built vacation home communities with pools near the attractions, and newer construction concentrated around Lake Nona and the eastern corridor. All of it is financeable, purchase, refinance or cash-out.
Furnished vacation rentals near the attractions corridor define this market for many investors. Student housing serves the university area, inner neighborhood bungalows renovate for resale, and build to rent suits the eastern growth ring where land is still available. Bridge for the buy, construction for the build, DSCR for the hold: the same three doors most of these plays run through.

HOW WE LEND IN ORLANDO
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 an Orlando file, this desk looks at the property. When the deal does not pencil, you hear it before the appraisal is ordered.

ORLANDO 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 Orlando and across Orange 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 Orlando 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 an Orlando 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 Orange County. Owner-occupied has its own program. If the Orlando asset produces or will produce value, there is usually a structure for it.
Property types -
A DSCR rental loan or a bridge loan usually fits. Loan Goat lends across Orlando and Orange County on business purpose deals, qualifying on the property and its projected income instead of your tax returns. That works for furnished vacation homes near the attractions, where income patterns rarely match what a conventional lender wants to see on paper.
-
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 -
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 -
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.
