Property Developers in Hamptons, NY
Property development in the Hamptons represents one of the most significant opportunities in New York real estate. From luxury single-family homes to boutique commercial projects, the demand for well-designed, well-located properties continues to grow. However, development financing from traditional sources often moves too slowly, requires excessive documentation, and imposes restrictions that limit your creative and business flexibility.
Hamptons Hard Money Lenders provides property developers with the fast, flexible capital needed to acquire land, secure entitlements, and execute development plans. Our asset-based lending approach focuses on project feasibility, your development track record, and exit strategy rather than traditional credit metrics. Whether you are building spec homes, developing luxury condominiums, or creating mixed-use projects, our financing solutions help you move from concept to completion faster than conventional alternatives.
Financing Solutions
We offer comprehensive financing solutions for property development projects throughout the Hamptons. Our land acquisition loans help you secure development sites quickly, often closing in time to meet tight purchase deadlines. Once entitled, our construction financing provides the capital needed to break ground and complete your project. We structure draw schedules that align with your construction timeline.
Common Challenges
Property developers face unique financing challenges that traditional lenders often cannot accommodate. Banks typically avoid financing entitled land, raw development sites, and projects during the permitting phase. Their approval processes can take months, causing you to miss prime construction seasons or lose competitive land acquisitions to faster-moving buyers. Hard money development loans eliminate these constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of development projects do you finance?
We finance a wide range of residential and commercial development projects including single-family spec homes, luxury custom homes, multi-family buildings, condominiums, townhouses, and boutique commercial projects. We can provide financing for both ground-up construction and major renovation/redevelopment of existing properties.
How is development financing structured?
Development financing typically involves an initial land acquisition loan, followed by construction financing once permits are secured. The acquisition loan covers the land purchase, while construction financing provides staged disbursements as work is completed. Interest is typically paid only on funds disbursed, and loans are repaid upon sale of completed units or refinancing into permanent financing.
What development experience is required?
While we work with developers at various experience levels, we do evaluate your track record and capability to complete the proposed project successfully. First-time developers may qualify with strong projects, experienced contractors, and appropriate equity contributions. We focus on your understanding of the local market, your team capabilities, and your realistic assessment of costs and timelines.
Can you finance projects that have not received all permits yet?
Yes, we can provide financing for projects in various stages of the approval process. For properties requiring permits, we may structure initial funding for site acquisition and hold back construction funds until permits are issued. We understand that permitting timelines can be unpredictable in Hamptons municipalities and structure loans that accommodate these realities.
What loan-to-cost ratios are available for development projects?
Loan-to-cost ratios depend on project type, your experience, and current market conditions. Typically, we can finance 65-75% of total project costs including land acquisition and construction. Experienced developers with strong projects may qualify for higher leverage. We also consider your equity contribution and overall project feasibility when determining loan amounts.
