South Florida-based private lender A&S Capital have quickly become a major player in the multifamily real estate market. Focusing on providing short-term financing for projects across the country, they’ve emerged stronger from the pandemic and ridden a booming market thanks to a quick, painless, blockchain-assisted draw process and a trustworthy reputation.
2022 looks to be another pivotal year for the multifamily real estate market, and to weather the ever-changing conditions, a smart operator will be sure to equip themselves with the right partners. With A&S’ unparalleled service and rapid closing speeds, the bridge lender has built a reputation for executing deals other firms balk at.
“It was extremely refreshing to see a competent team, a skilled team, and a lender that I can depend on not only for purchase financing but for renovation capital,” says Edward Bolden, owner/founder of Bolden Capital Group. The Atlanta, Georgia-based has become well-acquainted with rising above stiff competition in one of the top 5 rental markets for multifamily real estate. With a rapidly growing operation consisting of 532 apartment rental units and 30 single family homes, Bolden Capital required a bridge lender that prioritized the speed and efficiency needed to close big deals and help them expand. For him, the only option was A&S.
“They have a great draw process and they just streamline what we’ve got going on in multifamily. I think some other lender shops should really take a tutorial session from what A&S has got going. It’s something really special.”
Mendel Fisher, an operator with over 6,000 units, has already closed on two projects with A&S with more in the pipeline. “Their response turnaround is very, very efficient,” Fisher says. “They’re always available for the developer’s needs, closing on time, and especially when it comes to more rehab and construction projects, their draw turnaround is impeccable.”
