We specialize in private loans for real estate investors in Waco and throughout Texas.

Our lending history—$4.5 billion across thousands of projects—validates our ability to deliver reliably.

Fast, Reliable Capital for Your Next Waco Deal
Capital for Waco investments needs both speed and substance. Starting at 8.99% with LTC up to 92.5% for qualifying deals, plus 24-hour pre-approvals. We build terms around your project requirements and execution timeline.
Fix & Flip Loans
Adding value in Waco requires reliable renovation funding. We base fix-and-flip loans on after-repair value, covering both property acquisition and construction costs. Pick 12-, 18-, or 24-month terms, all interest-only. Draw processing runs 24-48 hours after inspection completion.
New Construction Loans
New development in Waco requires capital that moves with construction progress. We finance residential projects with draw schedules tied to real milestones. Starting at 8.99% with timeline-appropriate terms. Construction understanding complements our lending.
Bridge Loans
Short-term capital gaps occur in Waco investing. When permanent financing timing doesn't align or transactions haven't completed, our bridge loans offer 12-months of interim funding. Deploy bridge capital for auctions, off-market deals, and phase transitions.
DSCR Loans for Rental Properties
Expanding rental holdings throughout Waco using income property qualification. Our DSCR loans evaluate cash flow against debt service. Applies to short-term, mid-term, and long-term rental approaches in Waco. Property performance drives approval, not personal documentation.
What Makes Unitas Different in Waco
- Institutional Scale, Direct Relationship
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. - Underwriting That Evaluates Real Opportunities
Traditional lenders use rigid qualification boxes. If your Waco 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. - Own The Money, Make The Decisions
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. - Efficiency In Closing and Construction
Closing in 10 business days gets you into the property. Our draw requests process in 24-48 hours after inspection completion. Your Waco 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of investment properties do you finance in Waco?
We finance business-purpose real estate throughout Waco and Texas: single-family homes, multifamily properties, townhomes, and mixed-use residential buildings. We fund fix-and-flip projects, new construction, bridge loans, and DSCR rental property acquisitions. All loans must be made through business entities—we don't provide consumer mortgages or owner-occupied financing.
How quickly can you close on a Waco investment property?
10 business days with complete documentation. We deliver pre-approvals in 24 hours, and final approvals typically occur within 3-5 business days depending on title clearance and property valuation completion. Compare that to 30-45 days minimum for traditional banks, and you'll understand why serious Waco investors choose hard money lending over conventional financing.
What are your loan-to-cost ratios for Waco fix-and-flip projects?
We offer loan-to-cost ratios up to 92.5% on qualified fix-and-flip projects in Waco, covering both purchase price and renovation budget. Actual LTC depends on property type, location, your experience level, and project scope. We underwrite based on after-repair value and your exit strategy. Rates start at 8.99%, and we customize terms to match your specific project timeline and investment plan.
Do you require personal income verification for DSCR loans in Waco?
No. Our DSCR loans in Waco qualify based on the rental property's income potential, not your personal W-2s, tax returns, or employment history. We evaluate whether the property generates sufficient rent to cover debt service. You'll need to provide business entity documentation and demonstrate liquidity for down payment and reserves, but we're not requesting personal income verification that delays everything.

We provide private real estate loans throughout Waco, surrounding Texas communities, and the entire metro area. We lend in both urban and suburban markets across the region. Whether your property is located in Waco proper or nearby towns throughout Texas, we have the local market knowledge and lending appetite to support your investment.
