Hello community,<\/p>\n
As we embrace the new year, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who contributed to Graham Mortgage Corporation<\/a>‘s success in 2023. Last year brought unique challenges, and we appreciate the steadfast support of our partners, both longstanding and new, who joined us on this transformative journey.<\/p>\n Amidst tightening capital markets, we swiftly adapted, welcoming investors that empowered us to meet escalating demands.<\/span> With banks retreating, we proactively secured and funded $55.6 million across 35 deals, marking a robust performance in volatile times.<\/p>\n A special shout-out to our dedicated intermediaries consistently bringing us valuable loan opportunities.<\/span> This year’s standout is Ernest DesRochers<\/a> of NorthMarq, who secured three loans totaling $7 million. Kudos also to Brock Hudson<\/a> at CBRE, Brian Gramlich<\/a> at Terrydale Capital, Stephen A. Scott<\/a> at Equity Capital Person, James Roland at The Roland Company,<\/span> and Shawn Zafarpour<\/a> at Urban Arise, all deserving honorable mentions.<\/p>\n Looking ahead to 2024, our appetite remains robust, with our first loan already closed this week. As market conditions stabilize, we anticipate renewed opportunities.<\/span> In a landscape where traditional capital sources remain constrained, we’re poised to capitalize on promising ventures. Our commitment to competitive rates persists, ranging above 12% on income deals and up to 14% on land transactions.<\/p>\n
