"Alex, Dan and their team came through for us once again. They have helped us with several loans over the years, but this transaction was different because it involved an investment property. Very few lenders are able to successfully navigate a loan like this, yet they made it happen in a timely manner, allowing construction to begin immediately—a critical piece of the puzzle for any investment property. Alex also spent months patiently educating us about construction loans and guiding us through that process. When our plans changed and we had to pivot to a 1031 exchange, he was incredibly understanding and helped us determine that the original property and loan were no longer the right fit. He seamlessly guided us through the transition and secured the financing we absolutely needed to make the 1031 exchange and construction plans possible. This transaction could not have happened without Alex, Dan and their team’s expertise, responsiveness, and dedication. We are extremely grateful and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a knowledgeable lender who can handle even the most complex financing situations."
