Brian's professional career began in 2015 where he managed over 100+ residential properties located in the East Coast, remote from the West Coast. In 2017 he decided to make a switch into the lending industry where the company he worked for grew to becoming one of the top lenders in the industry. He grew to become a top producer and was fortunate to be a part of the Company's success while it was one of only a few lenders in the space at the time to lend over $1 billion in a single year. In 2021 Brian opened the doors to Lend with Aloha with the goal to work with full-time or aspiring full-time real estate investors.  Back story (if you care to continue)... Brian was born and raised on the Island of Oahu in the Aloha State: Hawaii. Growing up in a state where land is so finite, Brian saw first hand how many people struggled to afford real estate, and how many wealthy people owned real estate. Brian read Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki for the first time when he was in high school. From then on, Brian knew that real estate was going to give me the best odds of reaching financial freedom. His real estate experience was built from the ground up starting in repairs and maintenance of rental properties, then property management, hard money/private money lending, and real estate investing.  Every decision Brian has made in real estate had one goal in mind: become a better real estate investor. When he was fresh out of college he read an article that said, "If you want to be a great real estate investor, start in lending." The author's argument was that the bulk of the money that any investor is going to use for a transaction is not going to be their own money, but rather, other people's money (OPM). Brian searched for direct lenders to work for as a loan officer that could provide him with a deep understanding of how real estate finance worked. As he worked for these lenders he started to understand that we couldn't be GREAT at everything. There's a flagship product the drives the bulk of the business and then other products that are onboarded to help round out the product line and serve the existing customers without those customers having to work with multiple lenders. Lend with Aloha is here to help with this by being a place that links you up with the flagship products of each lender.
