2128 Eagles Ridge Dr
Texas Hill Country

818 Capital is a direct lender and capital-markets partner across investment real estate — from rental homes and bridge to ground-up, multifamily, and commercial. We underwrite the project and the person, and close in 14–21 days.
For too long, private lending has been a gatekeeping exercise — capable operators handed capital structured to extract value, not create it. We leverage technology to streamline what was slow and opaque, while restoring the human element institutional lending lost.
AI triage means answers in minutes, not days. Most deals close in 14–21 days.
No tax returns for DSCR. No W-2s. We qualify on the property and the numbers.
We explain every number, every option. No jargon. No surprises at closing.
Scenario Desk, Flip Lab, and STR Signal give you institutional-grade analysis instantly.

43+ deals closed · 48 states · $75K–$25M+ loan sizes · ground-up through multifamily
Since 2006, Ravi has been directly involved in more than $100 million in real estate transactions — not as a spectator, but as an operator, builder, and investor.
He founded 818 after years on the borrower side — watching capable developers get turned away by lenders who could not see past a credit score. At 818, he applies an operator’s lens to every file: the economics, the exit, the market, and the person executing.
Qualify on rental income alone — no tax returns, no W-2s. Long-term rentals, portfolios, and short-term rentals via STR Signal.
Short-term bridge for rehab projects — purchase plus renovation in one loan, with inspected draw schedules.
Vertical construction for ground-up builds, tear-down/rebuilds, and build-to-rent. Funds release on a milestone draw schedule.
Transitional capital for acquisition, value-add, lease-up, and bridge-to-permanent — structured to a defined exit.
5+ unit apartments, mixed-use, and commercial — bank, bridge, and agency permanent structures with a Sponsor Brief on every file.
One relationship across all five. We match every deal to the right product and structure — and place it for best execution across 30+ capital relationships. Indicative terms same/next day; rates subject to credit approval, market conditions, and program guidelines.
FUNDED$1,380,000 · 9.75% · 90% LTC / 100% rehab · 65% ARV
A dated estate taken down to the framing and rebuilt into a luxury property — the kind of heavy value-add a credit box cannot see, underwritten on the project and the operator.
