Why Invest in Real Estate Secured Loans with Hopkins?

Good Returns
Our real estate-backed loans typically generate 7%–12% net annualized returns for investors—consistently outperforming many traditional fixed-income options.

Security (Hard Assets)
Each loan is secured by real property through a deed of trust, mortgage, or mobile home title. In the event of borrower default, the investor has a legal claim to the collateral property.

Diversification
Real estate lending provides a conservative, stable approach to short-, intermediate-, or long-term investing—adding a tangible asset class to your portfolio.

Liquidity Options

Although real estate loans are typically considered longer-term investments, we can often help resell your loan (note) quickly if needed—usually for a small administrative fee.

Strong Performance Track Record

Since 1983, Hopkins Financial has delivered an average return of over 9% to its investors—supported by disciplined underwriting and real estate expertise.
