Centennial, CO's Trusted Hard Money Lender for Real Estate Investors

Centennial sits at the heart of the Denver Tech Center's employment base, and its housing stock — much of it built in the 1980s and 1990s — is increasingly attractive to renovation investors targeting buyers who want Cherry Creek School District access without Denver's downtown price premium. The Tech Center corridor anchors a stable base of well-paid renters and move-up buyers, and neighborhoods like Piney Creek and Heritage Greens are seeing steady teardown and full-renovation activity as older inventory turns over. The Streets at SouthGlenn redevelopment has also reinforced the area's appeal, adding retail and walkability that supports surrounding home values.

Unitas Funding provides private capital for real estate investors throughout Centennial and Arapahoe County, Colorado — fix-and-flip, new construction, bridge loans, and DSCR rental financing. With $4.5 billion deployed nationwide and direct lending capital, we bring institutional speed and certainty to every Centennial-area transaction: real pre-approvals in 24 hours and closings in as little as 10 business days.

New Construction Loans

New Construction Loans

For ground-up builds in Centennial and across Arapahoe County, our new construction loans cover land acquisition and vertical construction costs with the same 92.5% loan-to-cost and 24-48-hour draw turnaround as our renovation loans.

Bridge Loans

Bridge Loans

When timing doesn't line up — between the sale of one Centennial property and the acquisition of another, or while arranging long-term financing — our bridge loans provide 6-to-12-month interim capital with the same 24-hour pre-approval and 10-business-day closing investors rely on for every other Unitas loan program.

DSCR Loans

DSCR Loans for Rental Properties

Our DSCR rental loans qualify Centennial investors based on a property's projected rental income rather than personal income documentation. That makes it straightforward to scale a rental portfolio across Arapahoe County without W-2s, tax returns, or employment verification slowing down your next acquisition.

What Makes Unitas Different in Centennial

  1. Institutional Resources
    With $4.5 billion in capital deployed nationwide, Unitas Funding lends directly — there's no broker chain and no committee delay between you and your capital. In Centennial, that means we can fund renovation, construction, and acquisition deals tied to the Denver Tech Center employment corridor without the capital constraints that limit smaller private lenders.

  2. Underwriting for Property Fundamentals
    We underwrite the deal, not your tax returns. In Centennial, that means evaluating after-repair value, local rent and resale comparables, and your exit strategy — not chasing W-2s or personal debt-to-income ratios. Borrowers with a strong deal and a clear plan move through underwriting quickly, regardless of credit history.

  3. We Fund What We Approve
    When we issue a pre-approval on a Centennial property, that approval holds. There's no surprise committee reversal three days before closing — a critical advantage in a market shaped by Cherry Creek School District demand.

  4. Speed That Matches Market Reality
    Closing in 10 business days gets you into the property fast, and draw requests process in 24-48 hours after inspection. Most Centennial projects require approximately 10 draws, and each one gets the same urgent turnaround as your initial funding — a meaningful edge in a market moving as fast as Centennial's.
