Frequently asked questions

Where is your office?

1155 Pasadena Ave S, South Pasadena, FL 33707, in Pinellas County next to St. Petersburg. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM EST.

Do I need to come to the office?

No. Most files are handled by phone and e-mail; you are welcome to visit if you prefer to meet in person.

Do you lend outside Tampa Bay?

Yes โ€” across Florida and in more than 40 states.

Which loan fits an investment property in St. Petersburg?

A DSCR loan when the property is rented: it qualifies on the rent, with purchases at 80โ€“85% LTV and cash-out refinances. A bridge or hard money loan when the property needs work first.

Which loan fits the building my business operates from?

An SBA 7(a) or 504 loan for owner-occupied real estate, or a commercial real estate loan โ€” we compare both for your file.

What do you need to start?

The property or business, the purpose of the loan, the amount, the timeline and a short summary of the borrower. We tell you what else the lender needs after that.

What are your rates?

Rates vary with the program, the property and the file. We quote terms after reviewing the deal.

How long does it take?

It depends on the program and the file โ€” hard money and bridge loans close faster than bank and SBA loans. Tell us your date and we will say whether it can be met.
