Cape Coral, FL's Trusted Hard Money Lender for Real Estate Investors
Cape Coral's 400-plus miles of canals — more than any city on earth — have made waterfront rehab and new-build lots along Cape Coral Parkway and the Southwest Cape some of the most sought-after inventory in the Fort Myers metro. Retirees and relocating families from the Northeast and Midwest keep demand ahead of supply in Pelican and Yacht Club.
Unitas Funding provides private real estate loans for investors throughout Cape Coral and Lee County — fix-and-flip, new construction, bridge, and DSCR rental financing up to $4.5M. With $4.5 billion funded nationally, we move at the speed Gulf Coast investors need.

Fast, Reliable Capital for Your Next Cape Coral Deal
Cape Coral's canal-lot scarcity and steady relocation demand reward investors who can close before a listing goes stale. Unitas offers rates from 8.99%, up to 92.5% loan-to-cost, and pre-approval in 24 hours across Lee County.
Fix & Flip Loans
Sailboat-access canal homes in Yacht Club and older concrete-block ranches near Pelican reward investors who can fund a fast gut renovation. Unitas funds acquisition and rehab budget together so you can close before the next buyer does.
New Construction Loans
Vacant canal lots throughout the Southwest Cape continue to attract new-build activity as Cape Coral's population grows. Our construction loans fund the full build cycle with 24-48 hour draws to keep Southwest Florida crews on schedule.
Bridge Loans
Need to close on a Cape Coral canal lot before your permanent financing clears? Unitas bridge loans give investors the short-term capital to secure the deal without losing it to a cash buyer.
DSCR Loans for Rental Properties
Cape Coral's steady influx of relocating retirees and remote workers supports strong rental demand across Pelican and the Southwest Cape. We qualify the property's cash flow, not personal income.
