Van Nuys is the valley's administrative and industrial centre, with a civic centre, an airport, a large industrial base and one of the densest apartment stocks in the valley.
From Los Angeles County out to Sherman Oaks, North Hollywood and Reseda, Van Nuys investors get the full program stack: bridge, fix and flip, construction, rental property, commercial, second mortgages and blanket loans on a portfolio.
A Van Nuys investor gets a direct line to the lender. No intake team, no file handed down a chain, no bank underwriter three weeks out. Written terms come first, then title and escrow, then the wire, usually inside five to seven days.
© THE COST VAN NUYS · CA
WHAT DO VAN NUYS HARD MONEY LOANS COST
What a Van Nuys hard money loan costs comes down to four things: the leverage, the property, the exit and how much documentation you want to hand over. Bridge money runs from 9.00% to 13.00%, with leverage up to 75% on residential and 70% on commercial, on one or two year terms.
Terms arrive in writing first. That is deliberate: a Van Nuys borrower should be able to underwrite the lender before spending a dollar on third-party reports. Bridge loans carry no prepayment penalty, so paying off early costs nothing but the days you used.
| 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 Van Nuys deal gets priced inside them once the property and the exit are on the table, usually the same day the file is opened.

Working with a direct lender on a Van Nuys deal removes the layers. There is no broker marking up the file, no correspondent shopping it and no investor behind the investor. One lender, its own capital, one set of terms.
Pre-1978 apartment buildings in volume, post-war single-family, and airport-adjacent industrial and flex. Every one of those property types is on the eligible list.
Multi-family value-add, ADUs on the post-war lots, and industrial bridge. Whichever of those plays is on the table, there is a program written for it.
THE PROCESS
- Complete your application
- Submit required documentation
- Sign your Letter of Intent

HOW WE LEND IN VAN NUYS
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 Van Nuys file, this desk looks at the property. When the deal does not pencil, you hear it before the appraisal is ordered.

VAN NUYS 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 Van Nuys and across Los Angeles 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 Van Nuys 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 Van Nuys 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 Los Angeles County. Owner-occupied has its own program. If the Van Nuys asset produces or will produce value, there is usually a structure for it.
Property types -
Scale and price. There are more older apartment buildings here than almost anywhere else in the valley, at entry points well below the coast, which makes a reposition pencil. Rent stabilisation shapes the plan, so underwrite it first.
-
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.
