Who We Are
We focus on a higher quality service for our loan brokers and borrowers.
PrideCo was established in 2006 and we began lending in real estate in 2009. We are a CFL licensed private lender and we lend our own money. Since our inception, we have continued to focus on key markets in California. We provide a private hard money lending platform for seasoned real estate investors. All of our loans are non-consumer, non-owner occupied.
Our small team enables us to work fast and efficiently for a wide range of real estate investors and their investment needs. All of our underwriting and servicing is completed in-house. We do not charge additional fees or hidden closing costs nor do we charge rehab draw fees for rehab reserve funds.
