Overview

RCN Capital, LLC was established in 2010 to provide time-sensitive, bridge financing to real estate investors to fund the purchase of non-owner occupied residential and commercial properties, provide bridge loans, and provide real estate-backed lines of credit. Formed towards the end of the recession, RCN Capital has benefited from a turbulent housing market in which many real estate investors see great opportunity. A lack of liquidity in the credit markets and increased regulation of the banking industry has restricted conventional financing as an option for investors in fast-moving and competitive real estate markets. As the nation’s premier direct private lender, RCN Capital helps fill this void.

As a direct, private lender, RCN Capital takes a common sense approach to underwriting, with all approvals made in-house. We are dedicated to providing quick responses to time-sensitive loans, often times with the ability to close in as few as 10 business days. At RCN Capital, we value referrals and our brokers are protected. We are committed to the highest level of customer service, because our success lies in building relationships.

Draw & Construction Process

RCN Capital structures its ARV loans so borrowers only pay interest on funds actually drawn: it does not charge interest on the holdback until the money is drawn, which lowers carrying costs during a rehab. RCN’s draws are serviced by a third party, Elite Commercial Servicing, which handles draw requests. The company does not publish the inspection method (physical or virtual) or a per-draw turnaround on its site, so both should be confirmed for a given project. On closing, RCN references funding in as little as 5 to 10 days, though it frames that as a general timeline rather than a guarantee. For rehab and construction investors, the interest-on-drawn-funds structure is the notable feature, paired with third-party-serviced draws whose exact turnaround is not published.
