About

2008
Year Founded
Mortgage Vintage, Inc. is a Newport Beach, California-based direct hard money lender specializing in business-purpose loans secured by California real estate since 2008. The firm serves the Orange County, Los Angeles, and Riverside markets with a broad menu of loan programs including fix-and-flip, fix-and-rent, residential and commercial bridge, construction, ADU, DSCR, multifamily, cannabis business purpose, foreign national, business cash-out, and land loans. Mortgage Vintage connects borrowers with capital through trust deed investments, operating a proprietary crowdfunding platform - CrowdTrustDeed - that it developed, manages, and uses to quickly fund its hard money loans by selling them as trust deed investments to private investors. Fix-and-flip loans range from $50,000 to $3,500,000+, close in 7-10 business days, and target active rehabbers with a proven track record. DSCR rental loans start at 6.625% with no income verification on 1 to 8 unit residential and commercial properties, funding in 21 business days. Construction loans carry 1 to 4-year terms on ground-up and finish builds for SFR, multifamily, and commercial properties. Same-day term sheets are available on all submissions. Spanish-language services available. Foreign national loan program available for non-US-citizen investors. Cannabis business purpose financing available on licensed dispensaries, growing, distribution, manufacturing, and processing facilities from $100,000 to $2,500,000+.

Key Differentiators

Why investors choose this lender:

  • Proprietary CrowdTrustDeed platform - capital deployed faster than most hard money lenders - Mortgage Vintage developed and manages its own trust deed investment marketplace; hard money loans are funded by selling them as trust deed investments to private lenders on the CrowdTrustDeed platform, creating a reliable and fast capital pipeline that enables same-day term sheets and 7-10 day closings
  • One of the broadest loan product menus in California hard money - fix-and-flip, fix-and-rent, bridge, construction, ADU, DSCR, multifamily, commercial, business purpose cash-out, cannabis business purpose, foreign national, and land loans; very few California hard money lenders offer this range under one roof
  • Cannabis business purpose financing - $100,000 to $2,500,000+ - cannabis loans are available for licensed dispensaries, farming, growing, distribution, manufacturing, and processing facilities; this is a product category almost no conventional hard money lender will touch, making Mortgage Vintage one of the few available capital sources for cannabis real estate in California
  • Foreign national loan program - Mortgage Vintage funds investment property loans for non-US-citizen borrowers, removing a qualification barrier that eliminates most foreign buyers from conventional and many hard money lending programs
  • Deep ADU expertise in Orange County and Los Angeles - Mortgage Vintage is a recognized ADU construction lender with deep knowledge of local ordinances, lot size requirements, and permitting timelines; provides 1st and 2nd lien construction financing that transitions to permanent conventional at completion
  • Spanish-language services available - the team actively serves the Southern California Hispanic investor community with bilingual loan origination, including fix-and-flip and fix-and-rent programs; a meaningful differentiator in Orange County's Santa Ana and Los Angeles markets
