Bridge, fix-and-flip, and new-construction financing for real-estate investors — underwritten by a lender who's on the same side of the table as you. When the bank is too slow, John Clanton moves.
John Clanton lends his own capital and his relationships — not a committee's. Because he builds, buys, and holds property himself, he reads a deal the way you do: by the numbers, the exit, and the clock. That's why investors across Middle Tennessee bring him the opportunities the banks can't move on in time.
You get a direct line to the decision-maker, a term sheet in days, and funding that closes when the deal needs it — not weeks later.
Short-term, purpose-built financing for investors who need to act while the opportunity is still on the table.
Close now, refinance or sell later. Short-term capital that bridges the gap between an opportunity and permanent financing.
Acquisition plus rehab in one facility, with draws released as the work gets done. Priced for a fast, profitable turn.
Ground-up funding from a lender who actually builds. Lot, vertical, and finish costs structured around a real build schedule.
The last piece of the capital stack when timing is everything — earnest money, closing gaps, or a quick cash requirement.
Capital to acquire, season, or reposition rental doors — with an eye toward long-term hold and King Rentals management.
Unlock trapped equity in a property you already own and redeploy it into the next deal without waiting on a bank.
Send John the property, your numbers, and the exit. No 40-page application — just the facts that matter.
You get clear terms — amount, rate, points, and timeline — directly from the person funding it. No committees.
Title, docs, and wire — closings measured in days, not weeks, so you never lose a deal to a slow lender.
Sell, refinance, or roll into permanent financing — and John can line up the takeout mortgage through Hightide too.
John's private lending is distinct from his licensed mortgage work with Hightide Mortgage. Private capital is short-term, asset-based financing for investment property — bridge, flip, and new-construction deals across Nashville and Middle Tennessee.
Buying a primary residence or refinancing your own home? That's a mortgage conversation — and John can help there too, as a licensed loan officer. But for the deal that needs to close this week, private capital is the right tool.
See Mortgage Brokerage"He found us a private-lending solution in days when the banks said no. That deal became the best investment we've made — and we've closed four more with John since."
Bring John the property and the numbers. You'll get a straight answer fast — and capital that keeps pace with your next move.
