Accolend was founded in 2016 by Boris Grinberg, Robert Newman, and Isaac Koyfman who wanted to use their combined 50 years of Wall St experience to revolutionize the private lending space.
Accolend has provided over $850 million in financing across 40 states and Washington, DC, supporting 1,300 real estate projects. We are a no-points, direct lender with in-house underwriting, allowing us to approve loans quickly, pragmatically underwrite loans, and keep costs down for our clients.
Our team understands the challenges of investing in real estate and works with you to provide the best financing option for your project. Whether it’s fix-and-flips, bridge loans, rental loans, or new constructions, we’ve got you covered.
Accolend manages draws in house through a dedicated draw manager. To release renovation or construction funds, the borrower submits a draw request to the draw manager, and Accolend schedules a property inspection to verify the completed work. Once the work is confirmed and reviewed, the draw is funded. Because Accolend is a direct lender that closes loans in its own name with in-house underwriting, borrowers work with the same team from approval through payout.
On closing speed, Accolend has 5 to 12 day closings. Accolend does not publish whether draw inspections are physical or virtual, or a specific per-draw funding turnaround, so investors should confirm both when planning a rehab or construction schedule.

Ratings are based on the following criteria:
Platinum & Gold Lenders
Platinum and Gold lenders are committed to delivering a modern, streamlined draw experience. These lenders typically support fully digital draw requests combined with virtual inspections across a wide range of project types. Their goal is to provide the fastest possible turnaround times without compromising risk management or construction oversight.
Silver & Bronze Lenders
Silver and Bronze lenders are still strong lending partners and have automated portions of their draw operations. However, the borrower experience may vary depending on the project type, inspection method, or capital partner requirements. In some cases, additional approval layers or third-party capital sources can increase reimbursement timelines.
About Virtual Inspections
Virtual inspections allow borrowers to skip scheduling a field inspector. They are typically reviewed within hours of submission. Borrowers must still document work thoroughly, including cost evidence (receipts) and lien waivers where applicable. Every lender listed on Lenderly offers virtual inspections and automated draw requests. The majority utilize independent construction experts for remote review, or they review submissions in house.
A draw-friendly lender is one that prioritizes speed, simplicity, and reliability when it comes to funding your project. They make it easy to request draws, minimize friction in the process, and get you reimbursed quickly so your project keeps moving.
The best draw-friendly lenders combine digital draw request tools with virtual inspections, allowing you to submit, verify, and receive funds often within 24 hours.
