Testimonials

  • “Forman Capital approached the deal I sent to them with the utmost professionalism and hands on support that I needed to make my deal work. Few and far between these days a true lender opens up a file with the attitude of “How can I make this work”, that is the approach of Forman Capital, which not only makes deals work but, educated me in the process of how to look at a deal, the right way. ”

    – Richard A. (Broker)

  • “Forman Capital took the time to understand our client’s business plan and designed a loan that worked for everyone. This loan closed in five business days. Many thanks to the Forman Capital team.”

  • “I met Brett Forman to discuss my acquisition and development of four parcels of land, including two marinas. Forman Capital provided $22MM for the acquisition and we had a closing and funding in less than three weeks. As far as lenders go, there are none more entrepreneurial or creative and certainly few who work faster.”

    – Marty S. (Borrower)

  • Forman Capital's expertise shone through once more with their seamless handling of our land loan project in South Carolina. Ty Regnier and his dedicated team navigated the complexities of today's financing landscape with finesse, delivering a tailored solution that perfectly aligned with our strategic goals. Peter E. Reinert, Chief Financial Officer at Contender Development, remarked, "Choosing Forman Capital for our land loan was undoubtedly the right move. Their commitment to understanding our needs and delivering results was evident throughout the process, reinforcing our confidence in their capabilities." Ryan Bosch of Arriba Capital, who facilitated the transaction, echoed Reinert's sentiment, stating, "It was a pleasure collaborating with Contender Development and Forman Capital on this project. Forman's deep understanding of land financing and their proactive approach ensured a smooth execution, setting the stage for a successful development in South Carolina." Forman Capital's ability to grasp the intricacies of our project, coupled with their responsiveness and industry knowledge, made them an invaluable partner in achieving our vision for this development. Their professionalism and dedication set them apart, and we look forward to continuing our partnership on future endeavors.

  • "It was an extreme pleasure to work with the Forman team, especially Ty and Scott. This was by far the most efficient and quickest close we've had with any lender. It is a real testament to the customer service minded nature of the Forman team. Many deals can unfortunately feel like an adversarial situation, but this truly felt like we were on the same side working together to achieve a common goal. The people at Forman are compassionate and real people who are not bound by the red tape bureaucracy of the larger lending institutions, and as such it was easy to just pick up the phone and work out quick, logical, and creative solutions together. We would highly recommend Forman Capital and anticipate working with them for many more years and deals to come."

  • "Our whole team enjoyed working the Forman Team. Our transaction went smoothly and all of the issues that arose were resolved with a friendly, commercial and reasonable approach. This will be one of many transactions we collaborate with them on!"

    – J.M. (Broker)

  • "I have just closed my 4th loan with Forman Capital and without a doubt, I will work with them again, hopefully many more times. Working with the Forman team is always pleasant. They are attentive and professional. We’re able to close quickly and with relative ease. However, problems do come up, but Forman handles them quickly that sets them apart from the rest. The whole transaction is like dealing with the family, including their legal team, and as a team Forman gets the job done quickly, efficiently, and at a reasonable cost. If there is a choice as to a lender, and you need to make a decision, don’t hesitate to choose Forman as your lender."

    – Peter J. (Developer)
