Hard Money Loans in Livingston, California

Livingston is a small agricultural city in Merced County on Highway 99, best known as the home of Foster Farms and surrounded by the almond orchards, sweet-potato fields, and poultry operations that drive its economy. The town is compact, with a Main Street corridor running through Downtown Livingston and residential streets extending south along the Highway 99 corridor toward the surrounding farmland. Food-processing and agricultural employment, a young and growing population, and affordability well below the larger valley cities keep demand steady for entry-level homes and workforce rentals.

Fidelity Funding lends directly across the Central Valley and understands the value-add and workforce-rental opportunities in a market like Livingston. Because our loans are asset-based, we underwrite the property and the plan rather than a borrower's income file, and we close in five to ten business days. Whether you are flipping an older Main Street-area home, holding a South Livingston rental on a DSCR loan, or bridging into a Highway 99 corridor purchase, we fund up to 90% of cost plus 100% of rehab.
