Lending Parameters
The South Florida luxury private lending market — and why Matchpoint operates in a category of one.
What Sets Matchpoint Apart
No Loan Size Ceiling
Matchpoint has no ceiling — we actively lend on $60M+ single assets, a market segment where Matchpoint has a significant competitive advantage.
Below-Market Rates — By Design
Our strategy is deliberately counter-intuitive: charge the most competitive rates in the market. This attracts the best sponsors, developers, and UHNW borrowers — which means the best collateral and the lowest risk.
25-Year Relationship Network
Matchpoint's deal flow is entirely relationship-driven. 25+ years of origination history means borrowers, brokers, and developers call us first — before going to market. Additionally, we welcome inbound deals from brokers, developers, and borrowers.
Every Deal Is Custom-Structured
We build direct relationships with every borrower and broker. Every deal is individually structured to meet your specific needs, from rate and leverage to term and repayment.
Business Purpose — 100% of Deals
Every single Matchpoint loan is structured as a business purpose loan to a legal entity. This is non-negotiable.
Close in Days — Not Weeks
Speed is currency in luxury real estate. Matchpoint's streamlined underwriting, established legal teams, and pre-existing borrower relationships allow us to close deals in days when other lenders need weeks.
25+ years of origination expertise. $2B+ career volume.
