Market Insight

Half Moon Bay is famous for Mavericks surf break and the Ritz-Carlton resort. Its dramatic coastal setting and limited buildable land create natural price floors. Vacation rental yields here are among the highest in the Bay Area.

Half Moon Bay investors are primarily focused on coastal investment properties, vacation rentals, and agricultural land with residential potential. With over $1.8M median home price, private capital is often the fastest and most flexible financing tool available.

Speed Over Everything

In competitive markets like Half Moon Bay, a 5–10 day close wins the deal. Conventional lenders can't compete with private money speed.

No Income Verification

Our DSCR rental loans qualify based on the property's cash flow, not your W-2. Self-employed investors and business owners are welcome.

Asset-Based Lending

Approval is based on the property's value and your investment plan — not a bureaucratic credit file. Credit scores as low as 620 considered.

Frequently Asked Questions — Half Moon Bay

What types of investment loans do you offer in Half Moon Bay?
We offer Fix & Flip bridge loans, Ground Up Construction loans, Stabilized Bridge loans, Single Property DSCR Rental loans, and Rental Portfolio blanket loans — all available for residential investment properties (non-owner-occupied) in Half Moon Bay and throughout San Mateo County.
How fast can I close a hard money loan in Half Moon Bay?
Most fix & flip and bridge loans in Half Moon Bay close in 5–10 business days from completed application. Ground-up construction loans typically take 10–15 business days due to draw schedule review. Speed is our primary advantage in Half Moon Bay's competitive investment market.
What LTV do you lend for fix-and-flip loans in Half Moon Bay?
We lend up to 90% of purchase price and 100% of rehab costs on fix-and-flip loans in Half Moon Bay, subject to a maximum of 75% of the after-repair value (ARV). Given Half Moon Bay's over $1.8M median home price, this allows investors to finance the majority of their acquisition and renovation costs with minimal equity required upfront.
Do you lend on multifamily properties in Half Moon Bay?
Yes — we lend on 1–4 unit residential investment properties in Half Moon Bay, including single-family homes, condos, duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes. All properties must be non-owner-occupied investment properties. We do not lend on owner-occupied primary residences or commercial properties.
What is a DSCR loan and does it make sense for Half Moon Bay rentals?
A DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan qualifies based on the rental income the property generates, not the borrower's personal income or tax returns. For Half Moon Bay landlords — especially self-employed investors — this removes the biggest obstacle to portfolio growth. We lend up to 80% LTV on DSCR loans in Half Moon Bay.
