Raisal Secures $3.5 Million Loan to Finance Acquisition of Florida Shopping Center

Coral Gables, FL, June 09, 2016 --(PR.com)-- The innovative commercial mortgage marketplace, Raisal.com, announced today that it secured a $3.5 million loan for a local businessman to acquire a non-anchored shopping center in Orlando, Florida. Launched in January 2016, Raisal revolutionizes commercial real estate lending by using an online loan portal to instantly connect borrowers with multiple banks and other lenders who compete for the business.

Commercial real estate lending is one of the last frontiers in the financial industry that remains highly dependent on archaic, inefficient processes. Banks and other institutional lenders are seeking technological solutions to streamline activities and improve profitability. Raisal's innovative cloud-based design aims to solve these issues and help bring commercial real estate lending to the 21st century. Since its recent launch, the portal has supported more than several hundred million in loan opportunities.

Raisal arranged the loan within a few days of going under contract, and it closed in 45-days. The loan, representing 75% of the purchase price, was priced at 4% fixed for 10-years, with a 25-year amortization.

"Securing a commercial real estate loan (http://www.raisal.com/how-it-works) is often the most time consuming and frustrating part of the buying process," said the purchaser's principal. "With Raisal, I didn't have to hunt for the right lender. Lenders came to me! While Raisal is powered by the internet, I was paired with an experienced loan advisor to help secure optimal terms and see the transaction to closing. The outstanding team was incredibly responsive and I was able to obtain highly competitive rates from trusted institutions. Raisal has changed the way I secure financing for my commercial properties."

Kevin Yaryan of Equity Investment Services served as the listing agent for the 52,000 square foot retail shopping center. "We were seriously impressed with the Raisal team," noted Mr. Yaryan. "The terms of the loan were outstanding and we were amazed at the level of diligence. Raisal's technology is the future of this industry."

Joshua E. Young, Raisal's founder and CEO said, "We have combined the powers of ground-breaking technology with an unprecedented understanding of how borrowers and lenders operate in order to create a portal that speeds up the velocity of the transaction and optimizes terms. The commercial mortgage lending industry has finally entered the digital age."

Raisal converges borrowers and lenders in a central platform, allowing borrowers the ability to compare commercial real estate loan offers from multiple lenders and easily perform an apples-to-apples comparison of rates and terms. With an expansive network of commercial lenders (http://www.raisal.com/lenders), including local and national banks, as well as institutional direct lenders, Raisal is able to provide borrowers with an expansive suite of programs, including conventional, SBA, CMBS, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Bridge and Hard Money loans.
