Hard Money Lender Rhode Island

Rhode Island

Rhode Island is one of the 13 original colonies and the smallest U.S. state by land area, but it has one of the highest population densities in the country. Key investment markets include Providence, Warwick, Cranston, and Pawtucket, with steady rental demand driven by the Providence metro and proximity to Boston. For investors, Rhode Island can offer strong cash-flow opportunities in small multifamily (2–4 unit) properties and value-add single-family rehabs. Onyx Capital Lending provides business-purpose lending statewide for fix & flip, DSCR rental, bridge, multifamily, and new construction projects.
