Hey BP 30 year CRE lender-investor-owner-operator here. Friends call me the Great Dane, (I love Doggies) Been helping folks obtain the private financing needed to grow their businesses since late last Century so Yes I’ve seen more than most and been around many cycles. At my advanced age I love bringing value by solving the most difficult challenges in this business. Latest were two projects on West Coast, one a 2m luxury horizontal development needing quick private capital and second a 2.5m multifamily acquisition the sponsors bank bailed, a quick bridge saved it.
The wrap- I’m here to solve problems, that keeps my mind sharp, that’s a good thing because of all the things I’ve lost in this life, my mind is the one I miss the most. Luv swapping funny stories and sharing hard-earned insider hacks. Still learning this online stuff so go easy on me, at first.;) If anyone has a challenging loan or problem sitch needing help, just ping, I’m friendly. Hit me with your best—or your worst, I can take most anything and solve for XY or Z. Thanks for having me BP
Welcome GD! I appreciate where you are coming from and we need those types of minds nowadays. There are SO many problems to solve in the Real Estate industry. Best of luck in your endeavors sir.
What are your top challenges in the business lately? I have a recent funny of fixing a borrowers credit score, took a bit but he finally qualified and loan closed.
