Our rates reflect short-term bridge capital. These loans are structured to be refinanced into long-term debt — often back at your bank — within the loan term. We plan that exit with you from day one. Rates depend on term, collateral, lien position, and borrower profile, and are subject to change. Not every borrower qualifies for the lowest rate.

Many Scottsdale borrowers start by searching "hard money lender." We’re a private bridge lender — comparable terms, more partnership-oriented underwriting, and a close typically around 10 days once diligence items are received.

Why BuildUp

Why Scottsdale operators choose us

  • We know Arizona. We lend only in markets we know firsthand, and Arizona is one of them.
  • Operators, not bankers. We’ve built, bought, and run businesses, so we read your deal as a business plan — not just a collateral file.
  • A person, typically within 24 hours. No call center, no automated maybe — a real answer, fast.
  • Transparent pricing. From 10%, priced to the risk, with our fees stated in your term sheet. Rates depend on term, collateral, lien position, and borrower profile, and are subject to change. Not every borrower qualifies for the lowest rate.
  • Complex situations, underwritten. Complex entities, cross-collateral, and financials that need interpretation — a standard credit box can’t hold them; we can.
  • Real collateral, always. Every loan is secured by Maricopa County-area real estate we’d be comfortable owning.

Common questions

Lending in Scottsdale

Do you lend in Scottsdale, Arizona?
Yes — Scottsdale is squarely in our footprint. We make real-estate-secured loans of $100K–$10M throughout Arizona, including Maricopa County.
How fast can you fund a loan in Scottsdale?
Term sheets typically within 5 business days and closing typically around 10 days once diligence items are received — fast enough for most Scottsdale deadlines. A member of our team typically responds within 24 hours.
Do you have a physical office in Scottsdale?
No — we don’t operate a branch in Scottsdale. We lend across Arizona and a real person typically responds within 24 hours, so you get bank-grade underwriting without the bank’s timeline.
Can I use Scottsdale commercial or residential property as collateral?
Yes. We lend in first or second lien position against commercial or residential real estate in and around Scottsdale, and we structure cross-collateralized loans across multiple properties.
What if my Scottsdale business was declined by a bank or SBA?
A decline usually reflects complexity or timing, not the quality of your business. We regularly fund Scottsdale deals that banks and SBA lenders pass on, provided they’re secured by real estate in Arizona.
Are you a hard money lender in Scottsdale?
We’re a private bridge lender, not a hard money shop. The terms are comparable in Scottsdale, but our underwriting is built around your success, not your keys.
Do you finance hospitality or medical-office property in Scottsdale?
Yes, when secured by real estate with proven demand. Scottsdale’s hospitality and medical-office assets are a natural fit for bridge capital.
