About Kiavi

Written by the company

With more than $18B in funded loans and 50,000+ projects nationwide, Kiavi is one of the nation’s largest private lenders to residential real estate investors (REIs). Kiavi harnesses the power of data & technology to offer REIs a simpler, more reliable, and faster way to access the capital they need to scale their businesses. Formerly known as LendingHome, Kiavi is committed to helping its customers revitalize the approximately $25 trillion worth of aged U.S. housing stock to provide move-in ready homes and rental housing for millions of Americans across the country.

Traditional lenders rely on human decision-makers and paper-based processes. At Kiavi, our modern tech platform removes many traditional barriers, automates time-consuming manual steps and provides quick decisioning and true transparency throughout the entire process. With a wide range of bridge and rental funding options to choose from, Kiavi’s team of experts can create a personalized solution for our customer's investment strategy.

Homeownership has always been an important part of American life. But now, just as Millennials are hitting the peak age for buying their first homes, fewer new homes are being built. In fact, today there are 33%1 fewer new homes constructed than just 15 years ago. Over 65 percent of the U.S. housing stock is more than 30 years old and in need of upgrading and renovating. And as the demand for move-in-ready homes continues to grow, residential real estate investors are needed more than ever. Kiavi is committed and proud to support today’s real estate investors in their efforts to revitalize these aged homes and provide move-in-ready homes and rental housing.

My phone conversations with Nathan Parente

My phone conversations with Nathan Parente were excellent and informative. We eventually paused our loan process, but it was NOT due to any lack of assistance on his part, but due to decision that we needed to make.

I had an outstanding experience working…

I had an outstanding experience working with Kiavi, and I want to give a special shout-out to Valeria Merlos for her exceptional support throughout the entire loan process. From start to finish, Valeria was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. She took the time to explain every step clearly, answered all my questions with patience, and made sure I felt confident and informed throughout the process.

What truly stood out was her dedication—she went above and beyond to ensure everything moved smoothly and efficiently. Thanks to her, what could have been a stressful experience turned into a seamless and even enjoyable one.

Kiavi is fortunate to have someone like Valeria on their team. I highly recommend working with her and with Kiavi if you’re looking for a reliable and customer-focused lending partner. Thank you, Valeria!
