About Us

S3 Capital is the lending arm of Spruce Capital, a real estate investment firm that acquires and manages multi-family rental housing. S3 Capital is a national construction and bridge lender with significant expertise in development that positions it to streamline the construction process. The company offers a dedicated pool of capital, enabling it to promptly fund construction-related expenses and respond to the individual needs of borrowers. S3 mitigates risk by making investments in Tier 1 Markets nationally, where properties have historically maintained value and where investors have been able to recoup value more quickly than in other markets. Extensive real estate equity investment experience allows the S3 team to view underwriting through an equity lens with a more informed view of an asset’s overall worth.
