Private Real Estate Capital

Private real estate loans from $1M to $100M+

Direct capital. Principal decisions. Certain execution.

Business-purpose, first-position financing throughout Florida.

Term sheets within 24 hours. Qualified transactions can close in as few as 5 days.

The Matchpoint difference

Private credit without the institutional friction.

Complex real estate transactions do not always fit neatly inside a bank’s credit box. Every Matchpoint transaction is reviewed directly by principals who understand the property, sponsor, capital structure, exit, and downside.

Capital

Direct access to first-position private real estate capital from $1M to $100M+.

Judgment

Decades of lending, development, and Florida real estate experience applied to every transaction.

Certainty

We do not issue terms simply to win a deal. When we commit, our objective is to close as represented.

Speed

The people reviewing your transaction are the people empowered to make the decision.

The capital is direct. The decisions are ours. The speed follows.

Track record

Experience matters when the transaction does not fit in a box.

How we think

We underwrite the complete deal.

LTV matters, but it is not the entire story. Our job is to understand what makes the transaction work—and what protects it if the original plan changes.

Property

What are we lending against today?

Basis

What is the sponsor’s true investment?

Sponsor

Who is executing the business plan?

Exit

How does Matchpoint get repaid?

Downside

What happens if the original plan does not work?

Why borrowers choose Matchpoint

Straight answers. Smart capital. Certain execution.

If we like a transaction, we will tell you. If we see an issue, we will tell you. If we cannot do it, we will tell you quickly. And when we commit, we work relentlessly to execute.

No layers of approval

Your transaction goes directly to a principal.

No false promises

We do not quote deals simply to get them through the door.

No wasted time

Qualified transactions can receive terms within 24 hours.

No cookie-cutter underwriting

We evaluate the complete transaction—not a single formula.

Our word matters.

Private lending ultimately comes down to trust. Our reputation is worth more than any individual transaction.

Our philosophy

Brokers

Your client remains your client.

Your relationship and economics are protected. You remain informed throughout the transaction and have direct access to the people making the decision.

We want to be the lender you call for the next 20 deals.

Built on relationships

Trusted by people who know how deals get done.

“In the luxury spec home market, timing is everything. Michael Zuckerman and Jarrett Posner consistently deliver. They understand the urgency of our deals and execute with the speed and certainty we need to stay competitive in South Florida.

Todd Glaser

Luxury real estate developer

“Whether we're acquiring a new property or refinancing an existing project, Matchpoint has been an invaluable resource. Their deep understanding of the South Florida market and ability to structure creative financing solutions sets them apart.

Keith Menin

Founder, Menin Development

“I've had the pleasure of working with Michael Zuckerman for nearly three decades, and there are very few people in the South Florida real estate industry that I trust as much. Michael's integrity, transparency, and deep understanding of the lending and development landscape have made him an invaluable resource to both me and my business over the years.

As a developer and general contractor, I've worked with many lenders, and what separates Michael is his ability to think creatively while always remaining honest and straightforward. He understands what it takes to get complex projects across the finish line and consistently delivers on his commitments.

Whether you're acquiring property, refinancing, or financing a ground-up development, Michael and the Matchpoint Lending team bring experience, responsiveness, and professionalism to every transaction. I would recommend Matchpoint Lending without hesitation to any developer, builder, or real estate investor looking for a reliable lending partner.
