When a low-rate first mortgage is worth keeping, a second lien raises capital here without disturbing it. Because we invest our own capital in every loan, a term sheet from us in Colorado Springs means the deal is getting done — and we'd rather tell you straight if the numbers don't work.

Colorado Springs's defense & aerospace, healthcare, and tourism economy keeps commercial and investment real estate in demand across the area. When the collateral is Colorado real estate and the deal has a clear exit, second-lien loans secured by that property is how owners and investors move faster than a conventional process allows.
