Steelpoint Capital

A Partnership Built on Expertise and Opportunity

At SteelPoint Capital, we are focused on building happiness, transforming lives, and strengthening the community through active and passive investment in real estate. Our job is to provide local active real estate investors with funds to complete opportunities in the investment space.

We do this by raising private capital funds and deploying based on our risk tolerance. We are able to offer attractive fixed returns to our investors, paid out monthly, while putting their funds to work directly into the community. This unique approach allows us to stay nimble, support local projects, and deliver consistent results for our investors, all without the constraints of big institutional involvement.

Our Trusted Partners

Our Roots

SteelPoint Capital emerged from its sister company, CityLife Residential, evolving to continue to provide a safe, high-return passive investment option for its private lenders with a new way to leverage such capital to build a better community through lending.

With a foundation built on local knowledge and expertise, we believe in providing local Pittsburgh investors flexible borrowing options to empower them to build wealth through portfolio investment. At our core, we are here to build happiness, transform lives, and strengthen our beautiful community.

A Data-Driven Approach to Growth

Data is the driver in real estate, and through our lending company, we are no different. Every decision is backed by our local market intelligence, having done multiple hundreds of deals right in these very communities.

We leverage the expertise we have in our local market to ensure integrity and safety in every loan we structure on properties that create a win for us, our investors, and our borrowers through profitable and sustainable lending short term, driving great long-term success for all.

Redefining Real Estate Investment

SteelPoint Capital is more than a lender and investment firm–we are partners in your success. Our team delivers passive investment opportunities to create financing solutions designed to maximize returns while strengthening the communities we serve.

We don’t take the trust our passive investors instill in us lightly. We use this as the fuel and motivation to be hands-on in our approach to lending to local investors, ensuring the risk is mitigated for us and our passive investors, as well as ensuring our borrowers are only doing deals that work out for them. With our expertise in doing deals ourselves, we are uniquely positioned to provide the same value to our borrowers.
