"Hi Melanie, I can’t believe it was a short time ago when we talked, and I was scrambling to find a lender for my deal. In that short period, your recommended lender got my deal done and you guys both deserve a lot of credit! Finding people in business who can really get things done, is not easy and I feel lucky to have met you through LinkedIn. I am still shocked that my deal got done, in record time, and during a pandemic to boot! I really appreciate the help and can guarantee you two will ALWAYS have the first look at any of my deals and I will try to send as much referral business as possible! "

— Terrence B.

"Melanie Brown saved our deal! After attempting to get our project funded through a multitude of lenders, Melanie was able to pair us up with a lender that could get it done! Melanie helped us work through our projections and some vital cash injection questions that we had. She was able to re-work some of our project costs, which saved us money as well!
We will 100! be using Melanie for all future deals."

- Jason F.

"During the middle of the current pandemic, my partners and I were in the middle of developing our site for our new brewery. Even though we had a commitment letter in hand from a local lender to fund the balance of the project, they pulled out of the deal and we were left scrambling for financing. Our landlord was given Melanie's name as an expert resource for SBA financing. Melanie quickly analyzed the situation and presented the deal to several lenders. Our group was able to quickly secure a level of interest which turned into an LOI and then a commitment. We are scheduled to close within the next week and we are incredibly relieved to have our financing secured. Melanie has the connections to be a valuable resource to anyone looking for SBA financing. "

3 strikes and you’re out…but sometimes 4 can be a charm!

At least that was the experience for the Holtkamps. Matthew and Suzanne Holtkamp started Holtkamp Heating & Air located in Gwinnett County over 22 years ago. They purchased land in 2012 with the dream of building their own facility.

The Holtkamps worked with several lenders over 2 years trying to secure a loan but were having trouble because of their unique situation. Mike Dominy of Dominy Construction had been contracted to build the facility. After patiently waiting, Mike suggested the Holtkamps reach out to Melanie Brown. Mr. Dominy had previously worked with Melanie and knew if anyone could get the deal done, she could.

The project involved two separate tracts of land - one for the owner/occupied structure to be developed and a separate lot that had to be developed at the same time in order to properly complete site work and make the additional tract of land pad ready for a future user.

Understanding how this was impacting the appraised value, and complicating SBA eligibility considerations, Melanie quickly figured out a way to put the deal together by separating the parcels into two loans so the valuations were not an issue. The Holtkamps are incredibly excited about getting construction underway and moving into their new digs.
