## History and founders
The entity was incorporated in 2013 under the name NPC III, LLC and adopted the name New Providence Capital Lending, LLC in a name change recorded on August 28, 2013.[2](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1585455/0001585455-19-000016.txt) Its two principals, R. Mark Pitzer and Michael W. Slaughter, each appear on the firm's Form D filings as Director, Promoter, and Manager of the issuer, and the 2019 filing is signed by Pitzer as Manager.[2](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1585455/0001585455-19-000016.txt)
Backgrounds, as the company tells them: according to its own website, Pitzer has spent more than 30 years in Dallas-area real estate. As a principal of Windsor Management, the bio states, he acquired over $150 million of real estate assets and operated a portfolio of more than 4,000 apartments and about 1 million square feet of office property in Dallas–Fort Worth, until all of the properties were sold in 2007.[1](https://newprovidencecapital.com/) Slaughter's bio says he began his real estate career in 2004 as co-founder and Managing Director of INCAP Financial Group, a real estate private equity fund backed by a partnership with JP Morgan, and that he has since raised seven funds deploying over $300 million; he holds a BA in [Economics](https://www.edgepedia.org/economics) from [Colorado College](https://www.edgepedia.org/colorado-college) and an MBA in Finance from SMU's Cox School.[1](https://newprovidencecapital.com/) These biographies are company-published and are not corroborated by independent reporting in the available record.
## Lending model and transactions
The company describes its product as real estate acquisition and development financing: loans from $500,000 to $8,000,000 that can close in as little as 30 days, with flexible multi-draw structures that release funds in stages as a project advances.[1](https://newprovidencecapital.com/)
Its self-published transaction list shows roughly two dozen disclosed deals, mostly lot development, ranging from $850,000 for a land acquisition in Denver, Colorado to $5,350,000 for lot development in [Greenville, South Carolina](https://www.edgepedia.org/greenville-south-carolina).[5](https://newprovidencecapital.com/transactions/) Other listed loans include lot-development loans of $5,000,000 in Stanfield, North Carolina and [Asheville, North Carolina](https://www.edgepedia.org/asheville-north-carolina), $4,275,000 in Shallotte, North Carolina, $2,600,000 in [Charlotte, North Carolina](https://www.edgepedia.org/charlotte-north-carolina), and a $1,250,000 land acquisition in Bay Harbor, Michigan.[5](https://newprovidencecapital.com/transactions/) The disclosed footprint is concentrated in the Carolinas, Florida, Colorado, and Michigan rather than the firm's home Texas market.[5](https://newprovidencecapital.com/transactions/) The list is a company claim and the filing dates of individual loans are not given.
## Funding and Form D offerings
Private companies raising capital from investors in the United States file Form D notices with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The lending LLC itself filed under CIK 0001585455 from 2013 onward, including a Form D filed on September 18, 2019.[2](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1585455/0001585455-19-000016.txt) The 2019 filing for the lending LLC reports $2,015,000 sold with $0 remaining, to 36 investors, under the Section 4(6)/Rule 506(b) private-placement exemption.[2](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1585455/0001585455-19-000016.txt)
A large share of the total sits in a related fund vehicle rather than the lending company. Partners II by the numbers: New Providence Capital Partners II, LP, whose listed executives are R. Mark Pitzer and Michael Whitney Slaughter, first filed a Form D on February 24, 2020 reporting $28,800,000 sold on an equity-only basis; amendments filed September 2, 2020 and April 5, 2021 raised the reported amount sold to $58,040,000 and then $70,000,000.[3](https://www.formds.com/issuers/new-providence-capital-partners-ii-lp) Partners II alone therefore accounts for more than half of the organization's roughly $128.7 million total.[3](https://www.formds.com/issuers/new-providence-capital-partners-ii-lp)
## Status and the record in recent years
No Form D offering under the lending LLC's own CIK appears in the retrieved record after 2019, indicating that the lending company's private-placement raises ended around 2020.[2](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1585455/0001585455-19-000016.txt) Capital raising continued in a related entity: a Form D/A for New Providence Capital Partners III, LP, a Delaware pooled-investment fund (CIK 0001968568), was filed on June 18, 2024, listing a mailing address at 4809 Cole Avenue, Suite 275, Dallas, the same Cole Avenue address associated with the lending LLC.[4](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1968568/000196856824000001/0001968568-24-000001-index.htm) The fund LP is a vehicle for investor capital and is distinct from the operating lending company.[4](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1968568/000196856824000001/0001968568-24-000001-index.htm)
The company website, retrieved in 2026, still presents an active lending business and lists recently closed transactions including vertical construction financing for a builder in Asheville, North Carolina and financing for the development of 240 residential lots in Asheville.[1](https://newprovidencecapital.com/) These are the company's own claims; no independent reporting confirms the current deal flow, and the available record contains no documentation of how the 2023–2024 commercial real estate downturn and higher interest rates affected its loan book.[1](https://newprovidencecapital.com/)
