Our Clients
Our clients are small to medium-sized real estate investors, contractors, developers and small business owners, in a range of industries. While most of our clients are Minnesota based, we also service customers in Wisconsin, Iowa, North and South Dakota. As noted in our loans closed section, our loan sizes vary from $400,000 to $11,000,000.
Our clients use and rely on us for:
- Quick answers and rapid turnaround.
- Financial analysis and loan structuring.
- Projections, accounting and financial advice.
- Valuation opinions
- Professional referrals
Our clients hire us rather than someone else for these reasons and because we can help them negotiate the best loan terms and conditions to meet their debt financing and other needs.
