Hard money, fix and flip and DSCR loans in the Bronx, NY

The Bronx has a deep supply of older apartment buildings, from the 1920s five- and six-story blocks along the Grand Concourse to tenement-style buildings and brownstone rows in Mott Haven, so multifamily buyers model regulated rents and repair costs closely. Smaller investors find two- and three-story houses in Williamsbridge and year-round bungalows in Throggs Neck enclaves like Silver Beach, where the land ownership structure needs a close look.

Good to know

Before you buy in the Bronx

Local rules and costs that change a deal's numbers or closing date in the Bronx and Bronx County. Sources are listed at the bottom of the page.
  • Before buying an apartment building, pull its HCR rent registration history; buildings with six or more units built before 1974 are often rent stabilized, and stabilized units stay regulated regardless of rent level under the 2019 law.
  • For buildings over 25,000 gross square feet, check Local Law 97 emissions limits, which took effect in 2024 and tighten in 2030; owners file annual reports and face penalties per ton over the cap.
  • In rental buildings of three or more units built before 1960, budget for Local Law 1 lead-paint turnover work and the one-time testing of painted surfaces the city required by August 2025.
  • If the building is in the Grand Concourse or Mott Haven historic districts, allow for Landmarks Preservation Commission permits before exterior work.

Questions

Loans in the Bronx: common questions

Do you offer hard money loans in the Bronx?

Yes. United Lending LLC offers private real estate financing for investors in the Bronx and the rest of Bronx County: fix and flip and bridge loans sized on the deal, and DSCR rental loans sized on the rent. We're headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, and lend nationwide.

Do you offer DSCR loans in the Bronx?

Yes. Our DSCR loans are 30-year loans on 1–4 unit rentals, fixed or adjustable, qualified on the property's rent against its monthly payment with no personal income verification, up to 85% loan-to-value on a purchase and loans from $75,000. Investors use them for rentals in Mott Haven, Concourse and Williamsbridge, among other parts of Bronx.

How much can I borrow for a Bronx flip?

Up to 95% of the purchase price and up to 100% of the rehab budget, on a 12–18 months interest-only loan. Those are maximums, subject to appraisal and underwriting: the property, your experience and the comps set what your loan gets.

Is there a prepayment penalty on a loan in the Bronx?

There's no prepayment penalty on fix and flip or bridge loans. DSCR rental loans come with a choice of prepayment terms, from none up to five years, set out in your written terms before you commit.

Do I need to live in the Bronx or have a New York LLC?

No. You can borrow in your own name or through an LLC, wherever you live; many of our borrowers invest outside their home state. If your LLC was formed outside New York, your loan officer will tell you what's needed before closing.
