RISE8 Real Estate Finance / Commercial real estate direct lending
Real estate capital, reliably executed.
RISE8 Real Estate Finance provides bridge loans, mezzanine debt, and preferred equity for acquisitions, recapitalizations, and transitional real estate — structured by owner-operators who underwrite from experience.
Three ways to complete the stack.
Senior to subordinate, RISE8 REF lends across the capital structure — sized to your business plan and your timeline.
Short-term senior financing for acquisitions, recapitalizations, renovations, and lease-up — capital that moves at the speed of your transaction.
Subordinated capital that complements senior debt and extends proceeds — flexible structuring that fills the gap without diluting control.
Structured equity for recapitalizations, partner buyouts, and complex capital-stack solutions — aligned capital that shares the upside on your terms.
Lending across the property types we know.
Structured for speed and execution — grounded in real operating experience across Florida's high-growth markets.
Our home category — hotels and furnished-suite assets.
Value-add and stabilized rental communities.
Select-service and limited-service hotels.
Neighborhood and net-lease retail assets.
Execution-focused capital, backed by operating expertise.
We lend from our own balance sheet with in-house underwriting and decision-making authority — no committees you'll never meet, no last-minute re-trades.
Bridge, mezzanine, or preferred equity — structured around your business plan and capitalization strategy rather than a rigid box.
We own and operate our own portfolio. We underwrite your deal the way we underwrite our own — because we have been the borrower.
