Bell Hard Money Loans
Private Money for Bell Investors
Private money, often called hard money, is short-term financing secured by real estate. If you invest in Bell or close by, Jay Romero of Miamar Realty can help you explore whether it fits your next purchase or project. It sits between Maywood, Cudahy, Bell Gardens, and Huntington Park, a short drive from downtown Los Angeles.
Common Investor Projects
Investors commonly use private money for: Ground-up construction or major additions on investment lots. Bridge financing when an investor wants to buy before selling another property. Fix-and-flip: buy a house that needs work, renovate it and resell it. Buy-and-hold rentals that may later move to longer-term financing. Bell has many older homes and small multi-unit buildings, so renovation and rental projects are common investor plans here.
How Asset-Based Lending Works
Hard money is asset-based. A private lender looks mainly at the property, its value after any planned work and your plan to repay, usually by selling or refinancing. Lenders still review the borrower, and terms are usually short. Investors in Maywood, Cudahy and Bell Gardens can reach us the same way.

Investor Loan Questions
Is hard money for buying my own home?
No. This page covers business-purpose loans for non-owner-occupied property only. For a home you will live in, ask about home loans.
What do private lenders usually want to see?
The property, the price, your budget for any work and your plan to repay, such as a sale or refinance. They also review the borrower.
Private, business-purpose loans for non-owner-occupied real estate only, not for a home you will live in. Funded by third-party private lenders or investors, not by Miamar Realty. They usually cost more than bank loans and may end in a balloon payment. If you cannot sell or refinance in time, you could lose the property. This is not a commitment to lend. All loans are subject to lender approval, property review and underwriting, and not all applicants qualify. If Jay is also your agent, he may be paid in both roles. You may use any lender.
