Hard Money & DSCR Loans in Newark

Newark sits inside the NYC metro at North Jersey prices. We fund the strategies that work here.

Pimlico Capital funds bridge and 30-year DSCR rental loans across Newark and surrounding Essex County. Newark's combination of NYC-metro rental demand, attractive entry price points, and deep small-multifamily inventory makes it one of the strongest BRRRR markets in the Northeast. Direct lender, no personal income verification.

Why local knowledge matters

A national lender with a call center won't know that a Newark deal has its own underwriting quirks. We've closed thousands of deals across our footprint — and we've learned from every local curveball.

Common Questions

Newark Lending FAQ

Do you lend in Newark?
Yes. Newark and Essex County are active markets for us. We fund both bridge / fix-and-flip and 30-year DSCR rental loans.
Do you fund multifamily deals in the Ironbound?
Yes. Small multifamily (2–4 units) is a strong fit. The Ironbound's rental demand and tight inventory make it one of the most reliable Newark submarkets.
How does Newark's rent control affect a DSCR loan?
We underwrite the property's actual rent — not market rent — when rent control is in place. As long as the in-place rent hits a 1.0x DSCR, the loan can close.
Can I get a DSCR loan on a Newark 4-unit?
Absolutely. 2–4 unit small multifamily is one of our most common Newark scenarios. We qualify on the property's combined rental income, not your personal W-2.
How fast can you close in Newark?
We typically close Newark bridge loans in 5–7 business days. NJ title coordination can occasionally add a day.
Do you fund East Orange and Irvington in addition to Newark?
Yes. We lend across Essex County including East Orange, Irvington, Orange, and Bloomfield. Same in-house team.
