When a low-rate first mortgage is worth keeping, a second lien raises capital here without disturbing it. Because we invest our own capital in every loan, we’re selective about what we fund in Las Vegas — and we’d rather tell you straight if the numbers don’t work than leave you waiting.

Las Vegas’s hospitality, logistics, and light manufacturing economy keeps commercial and investment real estate in demand across the area. When the collateral is Nevada real estate and the deal has a clear exit, second-lien loans secured by that property is how owners and investors move faster than a conventional process allows.

Key Las Vegas industries we lend to: Hospitality · Logistics · Light manufacturing · Healthcare · Retail & mixed-use.

Common questions

Second-lien loans in Las Vegas — common questions

Do you offer second-lien loans in Las Vegas, NV?
Yes. We provide second-lien loans of $100,000–$10,000,000 secured by commercial or residential real estate in Las Vegas and across Nevada, with a term sheet typically within 5 business days and closing typically around 10 days once diligence items are received.
Can I borrow against a property my business already owns?
Yes — that’s exactly what this loan is for. If your business owns commercial or residential real estate, you can borrow against the equity in it — $100,000 to $10,000,000 — without selling the property or refinancing a first mortgage worth keeping. The building keeps working for the business while the equity goes to work on the deal.
What is a second-lien loan?
A second-lien (second-position) loan is secured by real estate that already carries a first mortgage, letting you borrow against your remaining equity without refinancing the first. BuildUp lends in second position from $100,000 to $10,000,000, subject to the combined exposure we’re comfortable with on the asset — useful when a low-rate first mortgage is worth keeping.
Do you serve all of Clark County?
Yes — Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, and the wider Clark County market. Real estate anywhere in Nevada can secure the loan.
