RRA Capital Named Winner of GlobeSt.’s ‘Rainmakers in CRE Debt, Equity & Finance 2025’ Award

PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RRA Capital is proud to announce that it has been named a winner of GlobeSt.’s prestigious ‘Rainmakers in CRE Debt, Equity & Finance 2025’ awards. This recognition highlights the firm’s innovative approach to commercial real estate (CRE) finance and its impact on the industry through strategic lending solutions and strong borrower relationships.

RRA Capital has provided over $1.9 billion in financing to real estate sponsors nationwide, offering bridge lending solutions that enable developers and investors to capitalize on market opportunities. The firm has been ahead of industry trends with early investments in industrial outdoor storage (IOS), hotel-to-multifamily conversions, and proactive office sector strategies.

“GlobeSt. has always been like the Wall Street Journal for serious real estate players—sharp, insightful, and on point for sponsors and institutional investors,” said Boots Dunlap, CEO of RRA Capital. “Getting recognized by them is a big deal. It’s humbling, especially when you’re lined up against the best of the best in the business. But let’s be real, this award belongs to RRA’s originations and underwriting team. They’ve been grinding non-stop, pulling off deals in what’s easily the toughest market since the GFC. They’re the ones making it happen.”

RRA Capital stands out for its certainty, speed, and reliability in executing complex transactions. With a record closing time of just four days, the firm has built a foundation of repeat borrowers and broker relationships, accounting for over 50% of its loan volume.

During the interest rate hikes of 2022 and 2023, RRA continued to provide liquidity through tailored bridge products, helping borrowers navigate volatile market conditions. One notable transaction included an $8.7 million loan for a hotel refinance in Jacksonville, FL, allowing the sponsor to execute their business plan and achieve a full payoff in 28 months.

RRA Capital’s impact extends beyond lending—it is deeply committed to fostering long-term relationships and community engagement. The firm actively supports Feed My Starving Children, The Bowery Mission, and Project Healing Waters, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting military veterans through therapeutic fly fishing.
