Wheeling clings to the Ohio River in the northern panhandle, closer to Pittsburgh than to Charleston, with the Suspension Bridge tying downtown to Wheeling Island. Centre Market keeps the old commercial core alive, Oglebay sits above town, and the Victorian mansions on the hill date from the industrial peak. Ohio County inventory is old, cheap to enter, and scarce in good condition.
From Ohio County out to Charleston, Huntington and Parkersburg, Wheeling investors get the full program stack: bridge, fix and flip, construction, rental property, commercial, second mortgages and blanket loans on a portfolio.
A Wheeling 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.

WHAT DO WHEELING HARD MONEY LOANS COST
What a Wheeling 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 Wheeling 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 Wheeling deal gets priced inside them once the property and the exit are on the table, usually the same day the file is opened.

The reason investors move a Wheeling file to a private lender is time. A bank takes thirty to sixty days and asks for two years of returns. This desk takes five to seven days and asks for the address, the price and the plan. In a market where the seller has other offers, that is the whole deal.
Nineteenth-century brick rowhouses and Victorians own the older neighborhoods, multi-story commercial blocks and warehouse buildings line the downtown, and steep, narrow hillside lots carry frame houses. Every one of those property types is on the eligible list.
Historic rehab and adaptive reuse of downtown buildings hold the real upside. Underneath that sit cash-flow rentals and small multifamily bought well, plus workforce housing tied to regional energy activity. Whichever of those plays is on the table, there is a program written for it.

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

WHEELING 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 Wheeling and across Ohio 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 Wheeling 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 Wheeling 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 Ohio County. Owner-occupied has its own program. If the Wheeling asset produces or will produce value, there is usually a structure for it.
Property types -
Old buildings are not a problem when the underwriting is on the property and the plan. Loan Goat funds bridge and fix and flip loans in Wheeling and Ohio County, including downtown commercial shells conventional lenders decline outright. Documentation stays minimal, closings run five to seven days, and paying the loan off early costs you nothing.
-
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.
