Formerly known as LendingHome, Kiavi is committed to helping its customers revitalize the approximately $25 trillion worth of aged U.S. housing stock to provide move-in ready homes and rental housing for millions of Americans across the country. Traditional lenders rely on human decision-makers and paper-based processes. At Kiavi, our modern tech platform removes many traditional barriers, automates time-consuming manual steps and provides quick decisioning and true transparency throughout the entire process. With a wide range of bridge and rental funding options to choose from, Kiavi’s team of experts can create a personalized solution for our customer's investment strategy. Homeownership has always been an important part of American life. But now, just as Millennials are hitting the peak age for buying their first homes, fewer new homes are being built. In fact, today there are 33%1 fewer new homes constructed than just 15 years ago. Over 65 percent of the U.S. housing stock is more than 30 years old and in need of upgrading and renovating. And as the demand for move-in-ready homes continues to grow, residential real estate investors are needed more than ever. Kiavi is committed and proud to support today’s real estate investors in their efforts to revitalize these aged homes and provide move-in-ready homes and rental housing. NMLS ID #1125207.

Kiavi made everything very easy.
By customer
Things started off great, but then took a turn. They originally told me the financing would be one amount and after spend money getting appraisals done, they flipped it and said Just checking on you. needed to pay four times the original amount. Very poor follow up as well.

I had a fantastic lending experience with Kiavi Their process was seamless, well-organized, and highly professional. The team was truly outstanding, making the entire experience smooth and efficient. I want to give a 5 star to their amazing team - Gregory Deverts, who helped with the rehab specs/ strategies and ready for underwriting, Jordan Chung, who kept on top of all the documents requirements I needed and Alex Caddo who was relentless in convincing me that Kiavi was the best lender to partner with. They have the best rates, a full loan offering from bridge to refi and dscr. I look forward to doing more business with Kiavi. Thank you again!
