Meet Our Team

About the Team

We are a team of specialized condominium and portfolio financing experts that resolve financing challenges where other lenders fall short. Our track record of success in projects across all markets has earned us recognition with the top developers across the country. Our mission is to always provide the best financing options and an educational experience that prepares our clients to make sound real estate investments.

Our Areas of Expertise

Construction Financing: Construction loans for residential or commercial acquisitions below $5 million in loan volume.

Renovation Loans: Fannie Mae HomeStyle and FHA 203K programs that offer the lowest down payment options for rehab/renovation loans of residential 1-4 units homes.

Non-warrantable condo projects: Projects that fall outside the scope of traditional mortgage programs because of a permanent or temporary component with the building or HOA.

Warrantable condo projects: We have unique programs that are more competitive than most lenders and we work directly with HOA’s to improve the programs available in these buildings including but not limited to: Low down payment Jumbo options, FHA, and VA.

Portfolio financing: Loans made directly by the bank that are not sold to an investor like at most banks. This allows us to make “common sense” decisions that expand restrictions around income, asset or credit.
