Cressida Direct is Cressida Capital’s nationwide direct lending platform. We underwrite and fund small-balance commercial and investment real estate loans from $200K – $3M in-house — no third-party bank in the middle.
Cressida Capital operates two complementary businesses. The advisory practice shops each deal across 100+ lender relationships to find the most competitive terms available. Cressida Direct is the other side: a principal lender that funds from its own capital, which keeps underwriting fast and documentation simpler on small-balance deals.
Apply and manage Direct loan requests on the dedicated Cressida Direct site, or start a request here if you are not sure which path fits.
Investors and small-balance commercial owners whose loan size often sits below a bank’s minimum, or whose timeline and documentation cannot wait on a traditional credit committee. Typical uses include purchase, refinance, and cash-out on income-producing property.
The Light Doc Program is funded through Cressida Direct.
