Hard Money Loans in Del Norte County

Del Norte County sits at California's far northwest corner, roughly 28,000+ residents anchored by Crescent City on a rugged Pacific coastline framed by redwood parks and the Smith River. Its economy rests on fishing and the harbor, timber, tourism drawn to Redwood National and State Parks, healthcare, and Pelican Bay State Prison as a major employer. The median home value near $310,000 makes Del Norte one of the most affordable coastal markets anywhere in California, with older housing stock in and around Crescent City offering low-basis entry. Investors here focus on affordable value-add flips, workforce rentals serving the harbor and prison economy, and small multifamily and commercial in a limited but steady market.

We close fix-and-flip, bridge, DSCR, and small commercial loans in 5 to 10 business days, using our own capital on loans from $50K to $50M at rates from 9.99% with leverage up to 90% of cost plus 100% of rehab.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you really lend in far Northern California like Del Norte?

Yes. We fund throughout California, including remote counties like Del Norte. As a direct lender we underwrite each property on its own merits, so a location as far north as Crescent City doesn't prevent us from closing.

Does the low median value hurt my chances of financing?

Not at all. Our minimum loan is $50K, which fits Del Norte's affordable price points, and a lower basis often means a flip or rental pencils more easily. We size the loan to the deal, not to a market average.

Are Crescent City rentals a good investment?

They can be. Employment from the harbor, Pelican Bay State Prison, and healthcare supports steady rental demand, and our DSCR loans qualify on rental income rather than tax returns, which suits buy-and-hold investors.

How fast can you close in Del Norte County?

Typically 5 to 10 business days. Rates start at 9.99% on loans from $50K to $50M. Call (877) 300-3007 to discuss your Crescent City project.
