About

A private office for strategic wealth work

The H Factor brings cost segregation, private lending, capital deployment and residential rentals under one roof, so an owner or investor can act on a decision without assembling a team first.

What we do

The H Factor is a financial strategy practice for real estate. We arrange cost segregation studies for income-producing property, which puts the building, the land improvements and the fixtures on the depreciation schedules that actually apply to them. We arrange private lending, either as a direct participation or as an introduction to a capital provider whose terms fit the file. We help investors place capital into real estate they can see and understand. And through Hewett Homes we own and lease residential property ourselves, which keeps the advice grounded in the same decisions our clients are making.

Alongside the services, the office publishes an investor education library: recorded workshops, written guides and reference material on self-directed IRAs, private lending fundamentals, tax strategy and wealth building. It is free to read, and it is deliberately plain about how each strategy works and what it does not do.

Who it is built for

Property owners who have just acquired or improved a building. Borrowers who need short-term, bridge or renovation capital and want a considered introduction rather than a rate-shopping list. Private lenders and investors looking for placements that match their own criteria, states and timelines. Tenants searching for a well-kept home with the terms stated up front. And anyone who wants to understand how these strategies work before committing to any of them.

Cost Segregation

Studies that classify a building's shell, land improvements and fixtures correctly, so an owner can recover capital through depreciation instead of waiting decades for it.

Private Lending

Direct participations and considered introductions between borrowers and capital providers, reviewed and approved one file at a time.

Capital Deployment

Placement of private capital into real estate opportunities that match the horizon, states and risk an investor has already set.

Hewett Homes

Our own residential rental portfolio, offered to tenants directly with the terms and availability stated up front.

Who builds and runs it

The H Factor is founded and led by Cynthia Hewett, CPA, MBA, a real estate finance and tax strategist who has spent her career on the numbers behind property. Cynthia reviews every engagement herself, and the office works by introduction: a conversation first, then a plan. Nothing on this site commits anyone to a transaction, and no study, referral or introduction leaves the office without a person approving it.

This website is the firm's own client platform rather than a brochure. Inquiries, lender and provider records, rental listings, referral tracking and the education library all live in one place, so the work does not get lost between tools.
