Deal Summary

Myers Capital Hawaii, a residential and commercial mortgage banking company and direct private lender, partnered with its affiliate, Koa Mortgage Fund, to fund a $100,000 first-lien bridge refinance for vacant land in Waikoloa on Hawaii Island. The loan featured a conservative 31.74% loan-to-value ratio, based on a $315,000 estimated property value.

The borrower—an experienced home builder and real estate investor with strong credit—used the short-term loan to pay off a maturing land note. This strategic refinance removed the immediate balloon payment pressure and provided time to advance the property’s planning and development. The borrower plans to repay the loan using personal funds.

Funded in June 2025, the 12-month loan carries a 14.5% interest rate with a 12-month guaranteed interest provision.
