The Challenge
In luxury real estate, timing can mean the difference between success and financial disaster. Mortgage Consultant Gaby Bermudez faced this exact scenario when her client’s $1.4M new construction loan hit unexpected delays.
The stakes couldn’t have been higher. The title company delivered an ultimatum: if the loan failed to close and fund within 10 calendar days, the borrower’s $700,000 escrow deposit would be forfeited to the developers.
“This wasn’t just about closing a loan,” said Bermudez. “My client was facing the potential loss of nearly three-quarters of a million dollars and the collapse of their dream home project. The pressure was immense - failure wasn’t an option.”
The challenge demanded not just a willing lender, but a partner capable of flawless execution under an immovable deadline.
The Solution
Recognizing the urgency, Gaby immediately turned to Lendz Financial. Together, they activated a plan built on speed, precision, and teamwork.
The Result
The outcome was a success on every front.
