RIO Commercial assists developers/ investors with difficult to place loans. RIO Commercial, headquartered in Los Angeles, manages a database of hard money mortgage lenders that provide bridge loans for commercial property and raw land development, workouts, bankruptcy and foreclosures. Hard money lenders are expecting the property to be stabilized at a higher value within a one to three year period.
This is a very fragmented industry of small lenders and can be difficult as lenders are selective. RIO Commercial will identify one or two lenders most willing to finance your difficult deal. Be forewarned, hard money lenders are the lenders of last resort. This is a very expensive option and only makes sense for deals that have been turned down by other commercial lenders.
