Real Estate Lending Underwriter
SimpleCREDIT is a growing private lender, based in Garden City, NY, built for credit professionals who want to underwrite real deals across the investment property and transitional lending space. We focus on core business-purpose lending including DSCR, residential transition, bridge, fix-and-flip, ground-up construction, multi-property and blanket structures, and small development projects, backed by institutional capital, with plans to continue expanding our product and capital access. We are seeking experienced credit and underwriting staff.
Our lending platform is affiliated with an established real estate and specialty finance group with active operating businesses, properties, and investment-related entities. That affiliation provides our underwriting team with immediate access to existing deal flow, operational infrastructure, and industry relationships, not a cold start.
