Private Money Loans
We are residential property lenders serving North Carolina - primarily in Raleigh, Durham, and Fayetteville. We specialize in providing private money loans on residential property investments. We work with:
Wholesalers who want to take title or need transactional funding for a double close,
Flippers who want to rehab and sell (fix and flip), and
Landlord Investors who want to BRRR: buy, rehab, rent, and refinance with a conventional lender.
In contrast to hard money loans, we are more relationship-based and will help you evaluate and analyze your rehab and wholesale deals. We also have a residential brokerage arm and can provide special priced listing services for your projects.

Financing Decision
Once a loan application is submitted, we’ll schedule the site visit with you. After the site visit, the loan application will be approved or rejected. If approved, we’ll provide a draft of the Promissory Note for your review.
get a property under contract
When the property is under contract, approved clients can submit a loan application online. The more complete the application, the faster we can respond. We try to respond within 1 to 2 business days.
Closing Procedure
The closing attorney will check that the title is clean. Property insurance must name Oakwood Lending as the mortgagee (not additional insured). The policy must be issued and paid for 6 months or the term of the loan, whichever is longer. The Premium should be a line item on the HUD 1, and paid by the closing attorney to your insurance company. The closing attorney should provide a draft of the HUD a day or two before closing for approval. We’ll give the green light and wire funds to the closing attorney.
Property Valuation
Your loan application will include your valuation method and your comps. We will run our own comps. We rarely require an appraisal, which significantly speeds up the process.
For new borrowers, we will want to conduct a site visit.

Whether you are listing to sell, wholesaling, or refinancing with a commercial bank, we are able to help and make the process quick and easy.
