Hard Money Lenders in Phoenix, AZ

Hard Money Lenders Arizona has always been committed to helping investors like you secure the financing needed to pursue both residential and commercial real estate opportunities. We proudly serve a number of cities across Arizona, ranging from Avondale and Fountain Hills to Paradise Valley and Peoria. One of the most popular cities where we see investors flocking, however, is that of our state capital: Phoenix.

About Phoenix

With a population of well over 1.6 million people, Phoenix is currently the most populous state capital in the country. Situated in Maricopa County, Phoenix is also the geographically largest city in Arizona at more than 517 square miles in size. First settled in 1867, Phoenix has since earned such nicknames as “The Valley” and “Valley of the Sun.”

Living in Phoenix

There’s a lot to love about living in Phoenix, and the city’s 1.6 million dedicated residents are a testament to that. With its location in the middle of The Sonoran Desert, which is surrounded by beautiful mountains and jutted by the Salt River, there is no shortage of natural wonders here. The city’s residents enjoy easy access to all kinds of outdoor activities, ranging from hiking and mountain climbing to river rafting and nearly everything in between. Combine these activities with the hot and dry desert climate, and it’s easy to see why so many active Americans enjoy living in this bustling city.

Aside from natural wonders and recreational activities, Phoenix is also home to such arts and culture destinations as the Phoenix Art Museum, Historic Heritage Square, and the beloved Phoenix Zoo. Meanwhile, the city’s robust public transportation system makes it easy for residents to get around; even those living outside the city will enjoy easy access to all it has to offer from nearby connecting highways.

Perhaps the best part about living in Phoenix, however, is the relatively low cost of living—especially when compared to other major cities in the United States. In fact, according to a study by Payscale.com, the cost of living in Phoenix is a full 5% below the national average.

Investment Opportunities in Phoenix

If you’re looking to make a real estate investment in Arizona, then the great capital city of Phoenix can be a great place to start. Both residential and commercial real estate opportunities carry a great deal of promise in this hot spot, with experts predicting that the housing marking in Phoenix will continue to climb throughout 2020.

According to The Home Buying Institute, “the median home price within the Phoenix real estate market rose by about 6% over the past year.” This is reassuring news for those who may have been concerned about the effects that the early-2020 recession would have on the real estate market.

There are many reasons as to why Phoenix is such a smart place for real estate investors to spend their money. For starters, the past decade has seen intense population growth in Phoenix, with the city’s population rising about 15% from 2010 through 2019. This influx in residents has also resulted in heavy demand for housing—a demand that is currently not being met. Currently, there is not nearly enough inventory of homes in Phoenix to meet the demand. As a result, there is a massive sellers’ market occurring that real estate investors are beginning to take advantage of.

Whether you’re thinking about going for a commercial real estate investment or would like to throw your hat into the residential real estate ring, there are opportunities abound here in Phoenix. The key is securing the right capital when you need it most.

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!

Our team is always committed to finding solutions no matter how complex the situation might be. We look forward to working with you and your clients in the future!

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.

Response from the owner: Thank you so much for the kind words. You were extremely helpful as well and allowed us to close it quick because of your communication as well. I am excited to do many many loans for you and this was just the first of many. Appreciate your business immensely !

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!

Response from the owner: Thank you so much Harold! you made it easy and I know this will be the first of many deals!!

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.

Response from the owner: Thank you so much Daniel! You were extremely helpful in making this possible!! Looking forward to working with you many more times!

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.

Response from the owner: Tim, we appreciate working with you again and as always. You made it very easy and we are delighted with the result!

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.

Response from the owner: David, thank you so much for your reply. We loved working with you and you were extremely prompt and responsive so it's certainly made it easier and faster. We are looking forward to working with you again soon!

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!

Response from the owner: Sean, it was an honor to get the opportunity to work with you. I take my clients very seriously and it was awesome to work with you on this and earn the right to share in your joy. You were very responsive to all my calls and you were definitely a contributor in the outcome. I appreciate this opportunity immensely and welcome to Arizona!

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.

Response from the owner: Steven, we appreciate you so much. You were amazing to work with and super responsive. Thank you so much for the business and the trust! We look forward to working with you again soon!

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.

Response from the owner: Cindy, it was an absolute pleasure to work with you and you certainly made it easier by being so thorough. Thank you so much and we hope to work with you again soon!

Darlene L.

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

Doug

Awesome lender that made things really simple to work with. Went above and beyond to get us a higher LTV than most of the other well-known lenders and had a quick close. Highly recommend using them!

Steven R.

Working with Michael was an absolute pleasure. I have done a lot of real estate transactions over the years and appreciate it when someone cares about their customer and getting the deal done on time and at the terms I was quoted. There are many bait and switch lenders out there but Michael and his team were always available when I had a question and when a potential issue popped up he was on it even while on vacation to get it resolved. That’s the type of service I expect and appreciate. Highly recommend if you’re looking to finance a deal.Steven

Michael and his team are amazing. I want to tell you that you cannot find a better broker who has the patience of a goat. Michael works tirelessly for his clients. I thought I was getting on his nerves but he is a seasoned professional and got the deal done. He is super fast 48 hours and it was done. He's simply the best. If you go anywhere else the experience will not be the same because Michael is compassionate. Thank you.
