What Our Partners Say
I’ve worked with Archwest Capital on both a bridge loan and a full construction loan, and their team, led by Danny, consistently goes above and beyond. As a developer in the valley, having a reliable lending partner is crucial—and Archwest delivers with outstanding service, accessibility, and a proactive mindset. Danny once took my call on a Saturday and had everything I needed in my inbox by Monday, showing his genuine commitment to clients. Most recently, they helped us close a complex deal with overseas owners, coordinating late-night calls, Zooms, and emails to get it done smoothly. Their dedication and flexibility have made a lasting impression.

Developer
If getting a loan was an Olympic sport, Justin would take home the gold—while answering emails mid-victory lap. He’s the kind of lender who actually picks up the phone, responds faster than our morning coffee kicks in, and somehow makes the whole process dare I say enjoyable.
Need a lender who gets ish done? Justin’s your guy. Need one who keeps things smooth and stress-free? Still Justin. Need one who can time travel to close deals at warp speed? I’m pretty sure he’s working on that too.
Bottom line: If you’re looking for a lender who’s a pleasure to work with and makes financing feel effortless, call Justin. Just don’t ask him to slow down—he physically can’t.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jennifer Lightbody & Jennifer Tran on numerous transactions and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. They are both incredibly professional, responsive and knowledgeable. They are always ahead of the game during the funding process, and always make sure the loan gets funded as smoothly as possible. They are both a DREAM to work with. I cant recommend them both enough!

I used Archwest to help fund a large transaction involving multiple new construction homes. It was not a typical project, but we were able to close on time.
I’d highly recommend collaborating with Archwest on any real estate projects.

FAQ
Frequently Asked
Questions
Answers to common questions about working with Archwest Capital
How does a fix and flip loan work?
A Fix & Flip Loan is a short-term financing solution designed for real estate investors looking to purchase, renovate, and resell properties quickly. These loans cover both acquisition and renovation costs, providing the capital needed until the property is sold.
What credit score do I need for a fix and flip loan?
Archwest generally requires a minimum average FICO score of 680 for loan eligibility. Alongside credit, Archwest also weighs the strength of the deal and the investor’s track record, rather than relying solely on personal income documentation the way traditional bank financing does.
How long does it take to close on a fix and flip loan?
Closings can happen in as little as 7 days with Archwest. Timelines may vary based on borrower qualifications, property details, and market conditions.
Do I need real estate investing experience to qualify?
Yes, Archwest typically works with experienced investors who have completed at least one project within the past 36 months. Experience requirements vary by loan product, so reach out to discuss eligibility based on your investment background.
How do I start my loan application process?
