Portfolio Loans in Inland Empire
One blanket loan for a Riverside portfolio spanning several jurisdictions.
Built for investors who own multiple properties. Roll five or more rentals into one blanket loan with a single payment, free up capital to keep scaling, and release individual properties as you sell. A Riverside County book can span cities with genuinely different short-term rental rules and subdivisions with their own Mello-Roos special tax. Business-purpose only, and every structure is set in underwriting.

How it works
Instead of a separate mortgage on every door, we structure one blanket loan secured by the portfolio, with the option to release individual properties as you sell them. It is built for investors scaling past a handful of rentals.

Local FAQ
Portfolio Loans in Inland Empire, answered.
Why does a blanket loan make sense for a Riverside County portfolio in particular?
Because the same capital reaches roughly 1.7 doors here for every one door in Los Angeles, so a portfolio grows past a handful of rentals faster. Zillow's June 2026 mid-tier single-family value for the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario metro ran $596,664, against $1,030,504 in Los Angeles in the same index and month, about 58% of the Los Angeles basis. Gross yields across the eight cities we serve here ran roughly 4.2% to 6.2% on the same June 2026 value and rent data, before taxes, insurance, or vacancy. Once several low-basis doors are financed separately, one blanket loan with a single payment gets simpler than reconciling each property's own note. See DSCR loans if you would rather finance doors one at a time. Subject to underwriting.
My portfolio has doors in more than one Riverside County city. Do the short-term rental rules travel with the county, or do I have to check each one?
Check each city, because there is no single Riverside County short-term rental rule. Unincorporated county territory runs its own certificate program under Ordinance 927. In the Coachella Valley, Palm Springs caps vacation rental certificates at 20% of a neighbourhood's dwelling units and holds a waitlist once a neighbourhood is at cap, La Quinta has a permanent ban on new General and Primary permits outside a short list of exempt areas, Palm Desert prohibits short-term rentals in its R-1 and R-2 zones outside on-site owner permits, Indian Wells sets a 29-night minimum that removes the short-term product outright, and Coachella city runs a permissive licence regime. A portfolio that crosses even two of these cities is underwriting two different STR businesses, not one. See the Riverside metro page for the cities we serve.
One of my properties is in a newer Riverside County subdivision. Does that change how the portfolio's taxes work?
Possibly, because a Mello-Roos special tax is a separate fixed charge, not part of the tax rate, and it varies parcel by parcel. Riverside County's newer subdivisions, including Menifee, Eastvale, Beaumont, Lake Elsinore, Temecula and Murrieta, are commonly encumbered by Mello-Roos community facilities districts formed to finance streets, sewers, schools and other infrastructure ahead of the homes that pay for them. The special tax is set at district formation, does not move with assessed value, runs with the land to the next owner, and its lien sits ahead of a lender's deed of trust under Government Code section 53340(e). The county Assessor states plainly that it does not control the amount or placement of these charges. Pull the current secured tax bill by APN for every parcel in the portfolio, read the fixed-charge line, and call each district on the number printed there before sizing the deal.
Does spanning several Riverside County jurisdictions at least make tax diligence and appeals simpler across the portfolio?
Yes, on the property tax side specifically, because every parcel in the portfolio answers to one assessor and one calendar regardless of which city it sits in. Riverside County runs a single assessment appeal filing window with the Clerk of the Board, from July 2 through November 30, and a separate decline-in-value reassessment application deadline of November 1, which is earlier than the formal appeal deadline. That is one set of dates to track across a multi-asset book, even though the parcels themselves may sit in different cities with different Mello-Roos exposure and different short-term rental rules. It does not simplify those city-level questions, only the county-level tax calendar.
Does AB 1482 apply the same way across every property in a Riverside County rental portfolio?
For long-term rentals, generally yes, because AB 1482 is a statewide cap and no Riverside County city was found to layer a local rent-control ordinance on top of it. For covered rent increases taking effect August 1, 2026 through July 31, 2027, the maximum in the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario CPI area is 8.1%. The one documented exception is mobilehome parks: the City of Riverside separately caps mobilehome space rent at 80% of CPI, a 2.80% maximum for 2026, and unincorporated county mobilehome parks built before 1990 answer to a separate county ordinance. A portfolio that includes any mobilehome park space needs that local rule checked, not just AB 1482. Talk to your attorney or CPA about how the cap applies to a specific lease.
If I ever need to release or refinance one property out of a Riverside County blanket loan, does that hold up the rest of the portfolio?
No, the release structure is built so one property's process does not force a refinance or default event across the whole file. California forecloses non-judicially through a trustee sale under Civil Code section 2924, with a statutory floor of roughly 111 to 120 days from the notice of default to the sale, and any deficiency claim is barred once a trustee sale is completed under CCP section 580d. That timeline and that process attach to the individual property involved. Our portfolio loans are structured with the option to release individual properties as they are sold or resolved, so the rest of the book keeps its financing in place. Anything involving how a specific release interacts with your loan documents is a question for us at underwriting.
How many Riverside County doors do I need before a blanket loan works?
Five or more properties. That threshold arrives faster here than on the coast: the same capital reaches roughly 1.7 doors here for every one door in Los Angeles, on June 2026 metro mid-tier values of $596,664 against $1,030,504. Once five low-basis doors are financed separately, a blanket loan with one consolidated payment is usually simpler than reconciling five notes, and individual properties release as you sell them. Subject to underwriting.
Is there a minimum loan size on a Riverside County portfolio loan?
$500,000 and up, measured across the whole book. That is the loan amount on the blanket, not on any one property, so a Riverside County portfolio of five doors near the metro's $596,664 mid-tier value clears it without difficulty. Term is custom to the book, with a single consolidated payment and individual property release as you sell. Subject to underwriting.

About the local figures on this page
Local rules move. Every tax rate, fee, ordinance and market figure here comes from a primary source and carries the date we read it, and we correct them as the rules change. Where a number is mid-change or we could not verify it, we say so rather than guess. Before you commit a budget, confirm anything that drives it with the city or county, and talk to your attorney or CPA on questions of law or tax.
