Fix & Flip Loans

Fix & Flip Loans

Properties throughout Renton offer substantial value-add opportunities for investors who understand South King County's competitive dynamics. Our fix-and-flip financing covers both acquisition and construction costs using after-repair-value underwriting, so you leverage future worth rather than current distressed condition. Choose 12-, 18-, or 24-month terms with interest-only payments for healthy cash flow during renovation. Draw processing completes within 24-48 hours after inspection, keeping contractors productive and projects on schedule.

New Construction Loans

New Construction Loans

Ground-up development in Renton requires capital that understands Washington state construction realities and King County's premium valuation environment.

Starting at 8.99% with terms customized to your build timeline, we bring both funding and construction expertise from land acquisition through certificate of occupancy.

Bridge Loans

Bridge Loans

Timing gaps happen in Renton investing. Maybe you need to close before permanent financing is ready, or you're waiting on another sale to fund your next acquisition. Our bridge loans run 6-12 months, providing interim capital when opportunities appear. Seattle metro investors use bridge financing to secure off-market deals and transition between investment phases without losing deals to faster competitors.

DSCR Loans

DSCR Loans for Rental Properties

Scaling rental portfolios in Renton shouldn't require extensive personal financial documentation. Our DSCR loans qualify on one metric: does the rent cover the mortgage? If cash flow works, we fund it. Boeing and Amazon employment density drives exceptional long-term rental demand from high-income workers. Available for short-term, mid-term, and long-term rentals throughout the area. Property income potential matters, not three-year-old tax returns.

What Makes Unitas Different in Renton

  1. Institutional Resources, Direct Access
    Backed by $4.5 billion in institutional capital, funding availability is never uncertain at closing. But we're not a bank drowning in committees and policies—we're a direct lender purpose-built for real estate investors. You get financial stability combined with decision-making speed and flexibility.

  2. Underwriting for Property Fundamentals
    Traditional lenders use rigid qualification boxes. If your Renton deal doesn't fit their template perfectly, you're declined. We evaluate deals based on property fundamentals, local market conditions, and whether your exit strategy makes financial sense. We build loan structures around your specific project requirements.
  3. We Fund What We Approve
    We own our capital. We're not brokers marketing your deal to multiple lenders, and we don't sell loans to secondary markets that might disappear when volatility hits. When we issue an approval, that approval is final. No surprise committee reviews, no funding falling through three days before closing.

  4. Speed That Matches Market Reality
    Closing in 10 business days gets you into the property. Our draw requests process in 24-48 hours after inspection completion. Your Renton renovation or construction project moves at the speed of actual work, not internal bureaucracy. Most projects require approximately 10 draws, and each one receives the same urgent processing as your initial funding.
