CommLoan Raises $2.25 Million to Provide Consumers with Access to First, Only, Marketplace for Commercial Real Estate Financing

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--()--CommLoan, a Scottsdale-based, early stage commercial mortgage lending technology company, today announced it has received $2.25 million in seed funding from Social Leverage and ViaWest Group. This financing will secure business development resources to accelerate sales and further strengthen CommLoan’s leadership position in the marketplace.

“CommLoan has built a distinctive platform designed specifically for the commercial real estate finance setting, improving the overall lender-borrower experience,” said Tom Peterson, founder and general partner of Social Leverage.

Steven Schwarz, Founding Partner of ViaWest Group, added: “Being in the commercial real estate business, we recognize the opportunity that CommLoan has identified, to change the way commercial mortgage real estate financing currently works, which will result in a win-win for both borrowers and lenders who use their platform.”

CommLoan is the first company to create a marketplace platform capable of sorting through thousands of lenders and potentially tens of thousands of loan programs, matching commercial mortgage borrowers with the perfect loan product. In addition to its state-of-the-art technology platform, CommLoan provides borrowers with complete support throughout the loan process through its experienced loan processing and underwriting departments. CommLoan provides loans to borrowers directly and also through its partnerships with commercial real estate brokerage firms and other commercial mortgage brokerage firms.

“The commercial real estate lending process is highly inefficient and borrowers are limited as it relates to their access to lenders and loan programs,” said Mitch Ginsberg, co-founder and CEO of CommLoan. “CommLoan aims to make the process efficient for both lenders and borrowers. For lenders on our platform, we offer access to a new source of potential borrowers, together with consistent, pre-processed packages underwritten to their specific guidelines. For borrowers, CommLoan gives access to the best available pricing, while providing white glove service throughout the lending process.”

“Thanks to Social Leverage and ViaWest Group, we have found the ideal partners who will help us take CommLoan to the next level,” said Marc Mirbod, co-founder of CommLoan.
