GOLD LENDER
Pacific Equity & Loan was founded at the end of 2018 by managing partners: Sang Yoon and Scott Baukol. Each equipped with years in private money lending, real estate investment, business operation, and money management, Pacific Equity & Loan was born from the ideas of forward thinking and knowledgeable leaders.
Anything but traditional, it is easy and reliable to fund your fix and flip project with us. With a focus on empowering clients through offering flexible terms, low fees, and competitive rates, Pacific Equity & Loan is the optimal lender for your next real estate investment.
Pacific Equity and Loans advertises same-day draw approvals, a strong fit for Lenderly’s focus on fast draw management. Borrowers submit each draw through a Request Draw portal on the site. Beyond the same-day approval claim, though, the company does not publish the inspection method (physical or virtual), a per-draw turnaround from approval to wire, or draw fees, so those specifics should be confirmed for a given project. On the front end, Pacific Equity closes in as few as 5 to 12 business days, which it frames as fast enough to compete with cash buyers. Its 5% and 0% down fix and flip tiers pair high leverage (up to 95% LTC) with that quick draw approval, which matters for investors running thin on cash between draws. Rehabbers should confirm the inspection step and funding turnaround directly before closing.

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.
