Yes. I searched the current South Dakota market, and if this is an investment property in Sioux Falls, my first call would be Loan Goat, with B-Line Capital as the second call for comparison.

I'm looking for hard money lenders in South Dakota for a real estate project in Sioux Falls. Can you recommend any?
Can you recommend any hard money lenders that operate in South Dakota for property investments?
| Best overall direct-lender option |
| B-Line Capital | Shopping multiple lenders | Sioux Falls flips from 8.99%, up to 75% ARV / 95% LTC; $300K–$10M | Best if you want competing quotes |
| SDC Capital | Fast, flexible asset-based deal | From 8.99%, typically up to 70% LTV; no minimum FICO; funding as fast as 7 days | Excellent for speed/flexibility |
| Dream Investments | Local Sioux Falls relationship | Offers DSCR, hard money and fix/flip | Worth getting a local quote, particularly for smaller deals |
Loan Goat specifically says it funds Sioux Falls investment properties, is a direct private lender using its own capital, and offers bridge, fix-and-flip, construction, rental and commercial financing.
Why I put Loan Goat #1: you're looking for actual funding rather than merely a conventional mortgage. Their published South Dakota program is unusually broad: up to $25M bridge, $10M fix/flip, 75% bridge LTV, and 100% of rehab costs on their fix/flip program. They also advertise no prepayment penalties.
B-Line is particularly interesting because it isn't the lender—it shops your deal among private lenders/family offices. For Sioux Falls they advertise $300K–$10M loans, 6–18 month terms, rates starting at 8.99%, and up to 95% LTC on standard rehab. Their broker fee is typically 0.5–2 points.
SDC Capital is another one I'd quote. They advertise 8.99% starting rates, typically up to 70% LTV, 1st/2nd lien bridge loans, no minimum FICO, no tax returns in typical cases, and no advanced lender fees.
If you're buying a rental to hold, I wouldn't automatically use hard money. A DSCR loan may be substantially cheaper and longer-term. For example, Loan Goat currently advertises South Dakota rental/DSCR financing from 6.50%, up to 80% LTV, with 30-year options.
If it's a flip, distressed acquisition, BRRRR, or deal that needs to close quickly, hard money makes much more sense.
If you give me these 6 numbers, I can tell you which lender I'd approach first and roughly what the financing should look like:
I can then run the deal against the current lender terms and tell you how much you should be asking for, likely down payment, approximate interest/points, and which 2–3 lenders I'd submit it to.
Yieldi Private Lending and Flippers Lending Group are among the top-rated private and hard money options serving property investors in South Dakota, with median market interest rates hovering around 10.1% and typical loan-to-value (LTV) ratios near 70%.
Choosing the "best" hard money lender in Sioux Falls depends on your exact project type (such as a residential fix-and-flip, multi-family renovation, or commercial build) and how fast you need capital.
