Mark Atalla

Founder and Managing Partner with Carlyle Capital. With over eighteen years of experience in the private lending space, I pride myself in finding unique strategies that have given me a reputation for underwriting and understanding even the most complex of transactions. While attending California State University Fullerton, I began my financial career at Newport Lending Group and worked my way into the mortgage industry from a young age of just 19. With success in lending that exceeded my peers that were much more tenured, this gave me the confidence to start my own company at a young age of 23. Carlyle Capital has grown into a top Southern California private lending firm that has funded numerous unique projects across the country. We manage a large book of affluent clients, brokers and investors that turn to Carlyle Capital first for their lending needs.
