Success Stories

Every property starts with a plan.

A closer look at the opportunities, structures, and outcomes behind Reliant-financed projects. These are the kinds of deals we fund regularly, shown the way we structure them. The details are representative rather than specific transactions, and every loan is underwritten on its own merits.

Featured project

From a clear challenge to a measurable result.

A straightforward buy, renovate, and resell project completed on schedule.

A dated bungalow, a disciplined budget, and a nine-month exit

In a structure like this, 90% of the purchase and 90% of the renovation are funded in a single loan, capped at 75% of after-repair value. Draws are released as work is completed and interest is charged only on funds actually disbursed. Because there is no prepayment penalty, selling ahead of schedule costs the borrower nothing extra.

Financing
Program capacity to $5,000,000
Execution
9–12 month interest-only, extensions built in
Outcome
Sold, with the proceeds redeployed into the next acquisition
“Outstanding hard money lender — highly recommend! He moved quickly to secure funding for my project, allowing me to close on my deal without any delays.”

East Austin bungalow — the 90/90 flip

The purchase window was tight and the property needed significant cosmetic work. A single loan covered both the price and the renovation budget, draws followed the construction schedule, and the sale closed in the ninth month.

Spec build in a growth corridor

The builder already owned the lot free and clear, so that equity served as the down payment. We financed 100% of hard and soft costs, with interest charged only on funds drawn.

Eight tired units, one bridge loan

A well-located small multifamily property had significant deferred maintenance. A bridge loan funded 70% of the purchase along with the full renovation budget, and the property was refinanced once it stabilized.

The flip that became a keeper

Rent comparables made a stronger case for holding the property than selling it. A 30-year DSCR refinance at up to 80% LTV returned the borrower's capital, qualified on the property's rental income rather than personal tax returns.

Seven doors, one note

Seven scattered rentals meant seven separate loans and seven payments. A blanket portfolio loan consolidated them into a single closing with one point of contact.

An auction purchase funded within the same week

Auction terms left no room for financing delays. The bridge terms held exactly as quoted at pre-approval and the loan funded within the week.

The client perspective

Let the experience speak for itself.

“Working with Michael has been a game changer for my real estate investment business… he actually challenged my view on how I was using different finance products, explained why it might hold me back, and helped me pivot to a strategy that made way more sense. That advice has put me on a much better trajectory to scale and grow.”
