How we work with Magenta Capital
We’re not employees of Magenta Capital. We’re an independent FSRA-licensed brokerage that submits files to Magenta Capital on your behalf when they’re the best fit — and to a different lender when they’re not.
5-minute call to understand your file — income, credit, down payment, property, timeline. No bureau pull to start.
We benchmark your file against 99+ lenders' appetite, not just Magenta Capital. If they're the best fit, we go there. If not, we go elsewhere.
Full document package to Magenta Capital's broker desk — structured the way their underwriters want to see it for clean first-time approval.
Conditional approval → conditions cleared → lawyer instruction → funding. We project-manage every milestone end-to-end.
Is Magenta Capital a good fit for your file?
Honest take from thousands of funded files. We send the right file to the right lender — not the loudest one.
Strong fit for
- ✓Short-term bridge (6-18 months) while we map an A or alt-A exit
- ✓CRA debt / writ / lien that must be paid before a bank will fund
- ✓Power-of-sale rescues with equity but no income proof
- ✓Equity take-out where banks decline due to credit or income
Probably not the right fit if
- !Borrowers without a clear exit plan to A or alt-A
- !Files where the equity cushion is thin (under 25% home equity)
- !Long-term holds — private is bridge debt, not a 5-year solution
