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.

I had the best experience with Kiavi! The loan process went smoothly from beginning to end. My account manager, Zach Berry, was amazing! He answered all my question, was patient, and timely. This was my first experience using a private money lender and the service exceeded my expectations! Light docs needed, excellent service, and on time closing date. I will definitely be working with them again on future projects!

It was wonderful working with Maria Barnes. She made our journey from loan initiation to closing as smooth as I have ever experienced in a funding process. Whenever any issues or doubts arose, Maria effortlessly guided her team, the closing company, and myself to efficiently solve any hurdles that came up. I would highly recommend working with her team if Kiavi products fit your needs.

I have been working with Zachary Berry at Kiavi, and I have to say, best service I have ever received. Zach is very professional and reliable, he has done nothing but good work for me. I appreciate his service and the prompt response I received on all my loan needs.

Tyler R. has been amazing to work with, and came in clutch for us on a deal that we needed to close on fast. The process was incredibly smooth—quick communication, streamlined application and closing. We closed in less than 10 days and we will be using Kiavi as often as possible for our real estate investing! Highly recommend!

I was stressing about funding multiple projects when Greg from kiavi called me to check in....I described the deals and my needs and Greg quickly helped me map out a game plan. He was quick to respond, readily available and knowledgeable during the process. A few weeks later my project was funded. I highly recommend Greg and the team at kiavi.

Worked with Zach B and he was attentive and understanding of all my questions and concerns. He also was very quick to respond, which is what you need when you are trying to close quickly. I would love to work with Zach and Kiavi again for my closings
