Ken, simply put, is the man. I was weary of using hard money on a deal that I thought would be easy to get a conventional loan for, but then 2 different banks backed out on me. But not before they dragged me along for weeks and even months asking for more and more docs, papers, calls, emails, forms, etc. I thought it was finally all sewn up and then the bank pulled out literally the day before the appraisal appointment. At this point I had less than a month to get an entire new purchase loan AND cash-out refinance (to pay for the new down payment), and I called Ken. I have never in any industry in my life seen someone as responsive and proactive as Ken is. Calls, emails, texts, he is there to help. This was a commercial deal so the appraisal part took longer than residential, but Ken's lending side was quicker than anything I've ever seen. I was beyond stressed about this deal but with Ken's help we finally closed. I am so grateful and I cannot recommend him enough.

Great lender to work with. Always on top of things (even after hours). No last minute “changes.” Quick loan turnaround. Would definitely recommend.

Ken has always been there every step of the way to get my loan closed. No matter what time of the day I called, he was there. I would definitely recommend him, especially if other lenders have already said no. He’ll get it done!

Ken is a valuable partner in business no nonsense type whom some would call abrasive but I appreciate because he has always been straight forward rates may be a bit higher but he can close. He is my go to lender whenever I need to close a deal.
