who we are
Build More Homes. Build Your Business.
We understand the realities of real estate investing. It’s fast-paced, competitive, and capital-intensive. Traditional lenders are often too slow or too rigid, which can cost you the deal. That’s why we operate differently.
Avondale is a private lender for investors who need straightforward terms, speed to close, and a team that understands the business. Whether you’re working on a ground-up build or navigating your next project, we give you the capital and confidence to move forward.

Where We Lend
We focus exclusively on residential properties in the five largest Texas markets:
- Dallas
- Fort Worth
- Austin

Each of these regions has strong demand, high growth potential, and proven exit strategies for investors. Whether you’re building a spec home or need hard money loans for new construction, our Texas-first approach puts us exactly where the opportunity is.

How it works
Step 1
New Borrower Application
Start by filling out our no-cost New Borrower Application. We’ll review your real estate experience, credit history, and financials. Unlike a traditional bank, we do not ask for tax returns or proof of income. Our focus is on the deal and your ability to execute.
Step 2
Request A Loan
Once approved, you’ll move on to the Loan Request stage. This includes submitting the contract for the property, a detailed project budget, and your expected timeline.
Step 3
Receive A Term Sheet
We review your loan request and issue a custom term sheet outlining your loan amount, interest rate, fees, required down payment, and expected closing timeline. Our process is built to get you funded quickly so you can focus on the project, not the paperwork.
