What Is Hard Money?

Hard money loans are extremely unique in that they use real estate as an asset with slightly higher interest rates. They do not rely on one’s credit history, and they typically come from private parties instead of traditional lenders like banks.

If you are familiar with bridge loans for commercial or investment properties, you already know something about hard money loans. Hard money loans can be used for residential properties, however, too!

Hard Money Loan Process: How It Works

01.

APPLY ONLINE

Our effortless online loan application can be completed in under 10 minutes, granting you the solutions you need for your real estate project.

02.

GET APPROVAL

We’ll provide you with an offer disclosing all terms in a clear, comprehensible manner within 24 hours of receiving your loan application.

03.

LOAN FUNDED

Unlike most lenders who take weeks, our loan funding process takes only a matter of days. Once the loan is funded through escrow, the funds will be provided directly to you.

04.

PAY MONTHLY

Make your monthly payments via mail, phone or direct deposit. The terms and schedule for repayment will be clearly laid out in the loan agreement, It’s that easy.

Absolutely fantastic to work with! Always responsive and helpful. The best hard money lender in AZ, closes fast and has a great passion for getting loans closed! Michael and his team are the best in the business!!

Justin V.

Michael took great care of my client I sent his way! It was a very complicated situation for a client in a bad spot and he jumped right on it and took care of them. He ran into a few hiccups during the approval process and didn't stop until he found a solution and got the deal done.

If Michael can't get the deal done, it's not getting done!

Juice J

Man. I'd hit a lot of closed doors and was losing hope, but then i found these guys. They were awesome and got the deal done more quickly and smoothly than i could have hoped. It was a great experience and Austin is awesome.

Shane R.

Five stars for Michael and his team. They closed our hard money deal for our client so smoothly and quickly, you’d think they used magic instead of paperwork. Efficient, communicative, and competitive. Highly recommend for a stress free hard money experience.

m H.

Michael and Lara were fantastic to work with. This was our first hard money deal and we had 30 days to close on our Mesa warehouse. We ended up closing in only 18 days, and only because we were delayed in getting proof of building insurance. They could have funded us in around 10 days which is crazy fast! Michael was super friendly, always available by phone, and helped explain and guide us through the entire process. It was smooth and fast from day 1. Entire underwriting process was easy and fast. This will be the first of many deals we'll do with them from now on, so we can make more competitive all cash offers. I really liked working with this group and highly recommend.

Harold P.

Worked directly with Michael and let’s just say the approval process exceeded my expectations as far as timing went and frankly the entire process.

The speed at which Michael’s team worked at allowed us to close the deal in less than 3 weeks.

Ready to make the next deal, let’s go!

Derrick G.

Brought one of my investors to Mike and he did an amazing job. Execution and knowledge was on par. Adjusted to a significant change with the COE and didn’t even hesitate. Great asset to have in your corner!!

Daniel P.

Working with Michael has been an extreme pleasure. Michael and his team are truly dependable, true to their word, and efficient, and performed in a manner that was quicker than expected. All requirements were met and we were able to close without delays.

I highly recommend everyone to work with Michael and his team and insist on working with Laura, Michael’s loan processor’ whom without her diligence, our loan probably would’ve been delayed.

Together they are an amazing team.

Ray S.

Best in the business...never would use anyone else. Professional and knowledgeable. Honest and informative.

geoffrey B.

michael was great. his entire team worked seamlessly together to get me funding in record time. a straight up and honest guy, hard to find in todays world. 100% would do business with him again.

Ryan M.

Michael is a winner! Work with him and he’ll for sure do his best to help you and your client close no matter how harsh circumstance becomes. My client now gets to keep his home because of a HardMoney loan. On to the next deal!

Brett H.

Amazing Experience w/ Michael. Very professional Speedy & detailed. Delivered on time & was very great with communication and process.

Sean C.

I had the pleasure of working with Michael to secure a loan for our home. He was able to gather our information, and close, record, and fund the loan within 10 days! the process was the least painful loan process I've experienced. The timing was perfect, we needed the good news and the great experience. Thanks again Michael we really appreciate it.

John B.

Michael is a pleasure to work with. He strives to make sure every aspect of the lending process is made clear and works hard to make sure things get taken care of ASAP.

Taylor S.

Michael gets it done! If there is a deal that has any obstacles, like one I was recently working, Michael is a true deal saver. Highly recommend.

Levi D.

Absolutely the best lender I have worked with thus far. Straightforward, efficient and personable. I will only be using this lender from now on!

Emily M.

We had a wonderful experience with Michael Iuculano. The process for our loan was only about 2 weeks start to finish. They found us the perfect lender for our project with terms that were agreeable to all parties. He was super responsive to all of our questions and understood what we needed from the beginning. We will definitely be working with him again!

Jacque M.

Michael was amazing! He closed my transaction in three and a half weeks without any hiccups. Diane Chamberlin, his assistant, was also extremely helpful and expedited the process. I would highly recommend!

Greg L.

Easy process and quick turnaround. Mike and his team made it easy.

Osiel A.

Tim D.

All I have to say is that Mike is well known and I’ve worked with him in the past, as well. He will get it done. In this case we had 48 hours. He got it out and signed in 24 hours, from the time I brought it to him. Saved customers house. Fantastic job, Mike.

David R.

I read Michael's ad in a home buying magazine and after having two other loan "order takers" just give up, I decided to give him a call. Best thing I could have done. Working with Michael is such a great relief because he gets that not every loan is some "cookie cutter, fit the formula" type of transaction. He takes the time to ask questions and find out what the goal of the loan is. In my case it was to unlock equity in other properties so I could better leverage my rentals. Michael had the knowledge and contacts to get my loan completed, and offered a few different solutions .

Michael's assistant Lara made sure everything got done right, and on time. She is great to work with, and responded quickly to any question I had. Together they make a great team and I look forward to working with them in the future.

Sean M.

Michael Luculano and his team are nothing short of miracle workers in making a complex deal easy.

My wife and I were recently visiting Scottsdale for her birthday and had decided to look at a few homes. Nothing immediate, just getting ideas for the future. Then on the last day we run into the perfect new construction home, only problem is we weren't prepared to buy. Most of our long-term funding was tied up in our home back in Oregon and to complicate things further, the seller had another cash offer on the table and a ridiculously fast 3 week closing requirement to secure the property.

So, we took a leap of faith and called Hard Money Lenders with Barrett Financial and got Michael on the phone. That quickly took us from an impossible deal to closing on our new home in record time. Michael clearly communicated all the terms and numbers up front. And being such a rapid deal with a large amount of escrow on the line, he personally checked in with us daily.

We have worked with a lot of great people in the real estate and mortgage industries for over 30 years and have to say that Michael is one of the top professionals we have ever met. A true expert in mortgage and bridge loans / private lending. Even better, it was clear to us every day that Michael truly cares about his clients. Best phone call we could have ever made.

Thank you, Michael and Lara, for helping us make this North Scottsdale dream a reality!

Steven S.

I had a great experience working with Michael. He was quick, communicative, and professional. The whole process was easy and I got my funding very fast.

Cindy D.

Excellent service! Michael was able to close our loan at a lower interest rate than originally quoted, as an added benefit to the already pleasant experience of working with Michael & his team. We closed ahead of time, no suprises, no drama, just positive results. The professional, dedicated staff was impressive as well. For positive results, this should be your mortgage choice.

Darlene L.

Mike was so very helpful in getting a loan for my new house! THANK YOU!
