Earn 8–10% Passive Returns Secured by Real Estate

Earn 8%–10% annual returns (paid out monthly), far above typical stock or bond yields. Enjoy consistent income every month deposited directly to you.

Every loan is secured by a tangible real estate asset. Unlike stocks or unsecured notes, a trust deed investment is backed by property collateral, providing a real margin of safety.

Investments range from 6 to 24 months in duration. That means your capital isn't tied up for years – you can reinvest or cash out in as little as half a year.

Trust deed investing lets you earn passive income from real estate without being a landlord. You receive interest payments each month with no management hassles.

Add a stable alternative investment to your portfolio. Trust deeds are not correlated to the stock market, providing diversification and protection in volatile times.

We maintain a conservative loan-to-value (LTV) on all deals (typically ≤70% LTV on purchases, ≤65% on refinances). Your investment is secured in first position.
Two decades later, hundreds of brokers rely on us to rescue deals, retain clients, and unlock new revenue streams—
all while we stay inside our circle of competence: private money on California property.

Our investors typically earn between 8% and 10% annual interest – with payments sent out like clockwork every month.
Your money is secured by a first-position lien on the underlying real estate, giving you a senior claim on the property.
We maintain strict lending criteria – typically no more than 70% loan-to-value on a property (often even lower).
If a loan is paid off ahead of schedule, you receive your principal back sooner, allowing you to redeploy into a new opportunity.
You'll have direct access to our principals for any questions. We know each investor by name.
Our proprietary network gives us a steady pipeline of quality off-market lending opportunities.

Accredited Investor
Trust deed investing means you act as the lender to real estate owners. You invest money into a real estate-backed loan, and in return you receive a deed of trust on the property. It's a way to invest in real estate without owning property.
Our offerings are designed for accredited investors, including high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and institutional investors.
The minimum investment with CDF is $50,000. We set this low barrier to entry so that investors can start with a modest amount.
Your funds are secured by a first-position trust deed on the underlying real estate, with loans up to ~65–70% of the property's value.
Investors typically earn between 8% to 10% annual interest on each note. Interest is paid monthly.
Our trust deed investments are short-term by design – generally 6 to 24 months.
You receive all accrued interest up to the payoff date, and your principal is returned early for reinvestment.
All investments carry risk, but we take extensive measures to safeguard your capital through stringent underwriting and low LTV ratios.
