RBI Private Lending issues corrected release, confirms national rankings and lender-loyalty placement
RBI Private Lending corrected a recent company release to fix an inverted ranking in a single sentence and reaffirmed that it was ranked among the leading private lenders in the United States for 2025. The correction clarifies the firm’s placement across construction lending, fix-and-flip lending and overall private lending lists compiled by an industry trade magazine. The company also highlighted a separate industry ranking that placed it among the top lenders for customer loyalty.
Top-line correction and rankings
The company advised that a sentence in the fifth paragraph of its release had inadvertently swapped rankings. The corrected sentence reads: Being ranked third in construction lending, eighth in fix-and-flip, and thirteenth overall by Scotsman Guide is a tremendous honor. In the same release, RBI reported that an analytics provider ranked the firm tenth nationwide in lender loyalty, citing client relationships and a dedicated servicing team as the drivers behind that placement.
What the rankings mean
The trade magazine rankings cited by the company are produced annually to identify top mortgage and private lending firms across categories such as construction loans, fix-and-flip loans, and overall private lending volume. Those rankings have been published since 2010 and are used by many industry participants as reference points for comparative performance. The analytics provider referenced in the release produces monthly reports that track private lending market share, customer loyalty metrics and borrower experience measurements across the sector.
Company profile and services
RBI Private Lending is headquartered in Florida and has provided private money loans to real estate investors since 2015. The firm offers short-term, hard-money products designed to enable quick acquisition and repositioning of real estate opportunities. Its program mix includes bridge loans, fix-and-flip loans, new construction loans, and rental property loans. RBI noted bilingual servicing capabilities and reported operations across 41 states.
Industry context: recent large Miami construction financings
Separately, the release package included additional market activity showing continued capital flow into Miami residential development. A lender group provided a $170 million construction facility to support land acquisition and initial development of a 40-story ultra-luxury condominium tower in an Edgewater neighborhood location. That waterfront project is planned to include a baywalk connection to more than eight acres of greenspace and roughly 134 condominium residences with resort-style amenities.
Another major Miami financing disclosed in the combined materials was a $413 million construction loan for a dual-tower mixed-use development in Brickell featuring condominium and multifamily towers with a shared podium and a total of more than 800 residences. That financing covers condominium, multifamily, commercial, and parking components and was described as one of the largest construction loans in the market for the year. The condominium component was reported as largely presold at the time of financing, and both towers include extensive amenity programs and integrated office suites in the condominium tower.
A third financing noted involved a $125 million construction loan for a 20-story apartment tower in a prominent city design district. That project will include one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments averaging more than 1,500 square feet and a significant amount of ground-floor retail.
What this suggests about the capital market
The combined items indicate that despite broader market challenges, institutional and private capital remains available for high-quality residential and mixed-use developments in key coastal markets. Multiple lenders, alternative credit providers and construction debt funds are participating in sizeable loans to support land acquisition and vertical construction. Developers and sponsors continue to pursue projects that pair strong locations with premium amenities and pre-sale or lease-up strategies to attract capital.
Correction transparency and disclosures
The company made the correction public in the release to ensure accuracy and transparency regarding its reported rankings. The corrected wording clarifies the firm’s relative placements across three ranking categories. The release package also included standard third-party content disclaimers and references to the analytics provider’s monthly private lending report, which tracks top private lenders and lender-loyalty trends.
Where to find more information
RBI lists corporate program and contact information on its official website. Industry participants rely on a mix of trade rankings and analytics reports to gauge market standing and borrower satisfaction across private lending platforms.
