Loan Originator
About the role
F Street is a Milwaukee-based investment firm with a track record of success across multiple industries, with a primary focus on real estate-related investment products. Our team is made up of driven, experienced professionals who are passionate about creating exceptional results for our investors and for themselves. We move fast, think big, and reward those who hustle. The Hard Money Co. is F Street's private lending arm. We make short-term bridge loans to real estate investors nationwide: Fix & Flip, BRRRR, and Rentals. We close in 7–10 days, underwrite in-house, and don't require appraisals or borrower credit checks. Brokers send us deals because we pay them on every loan and they keep their client. You'll sell that. Location: Milwaukee, WI.
