Funding Deals Since 2007

Built to Get Deals Done

RevitaLending is a direct, asset-based private lender based in Washington, DC, working with investors and brokers in DC, Maryland and Virginia. Hard money, bridge and fix & flip loans generally run up to $2,000,000, and DSCR rental loans up to $3,000,000. We have been lending since 2007, with hundreds of funded projects across DC, Maryland and Virginia.

We work directly with brokers and borrowers to find the right lending product for the deal in front of us — not the deal that fits a rigid checklist. That means quick responses, common-sense underwriting, and terms structured around real-world outcomes for everyone involved.

Direct Origination · In-House Private Capital

We’re a direct lender: RevitaLending originates every loan and funds it in-house with our own private capital, with no banks or institutional money involved. That structure gives us full discretion on bridge transactions up to $2,000,000 and DSCR loans up to $3,000,000, with every underwriting decision made in-house — no outside investment committee, no correspondent lender, and no loan sale down the line.

Leadership & Execution

Direct Capital. Local Decisions.

No committee, no correspondent lender, no loan sale down the line — RevitaLending funds and services what it originates.

Direct, In-House Funding

Every loan is funded in-house with our own private capital, with no bank, institutional money or correspondent relationship behind it, so we can move on the deal in front of us instead of a credit box someone else set.

In-House Decision Making

The person underwriting your deal is the person who can approve it. No investment committee, no out-of-state credit desk waiting on a file to clear a queue.

Direct Private Lending Since 2007

We've underwritten DC, Maryland and Virginia properties through multiple market cycles — we know the neighborhoods, the permitting timelines, and what a deal is actually worth here.

FAQ

Lender or broker?

Is RevitaLending a broker or a lender?
RevitaLending is a direct lender, not a broker. We fund every loan ourselves, with our own private capital, including fix and flip, bridge, new construction, DSCR and commercial loans. We don’t send your loan to outside lenders, and every loan is subject to underwriting.
Who decides on my loan?
We do. Every loan is underwritten and decided in-house, and the person underwriting your deal is the person who can approve it. There is no outside lender, investment committee or out-of-state credit desk in the process. All approvals are subject to underwriting.
