Ease Capital Announces Strategic Capital Commitment to Expand $5–$30M Multifamily Bridge Lending Program

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ease Capital, a technology-enabled multifamily lender and asset manager, today announced a new strategic capital commitment from a leading global alternative asset manager, establishing a $500+ million dedicated pool of capital focused exclusively on multifamily bridge loans in the $5 million to $30 million size range.

The commitment marks a significant milestone for Ease Capital and follows the company’s recent product expansion, which introduced a modern, end-to-end lending platform designed to close the technology and execution gap in multifamily credit. Together, the new capital and platform capabilities position Ease to scale originations while maintaining institutional-grade underwriting discipline and execution certainty for borrowers.

“This partnership reflects strong conviction in our team, credit approach and proprietary technology,” said Ryan Simonetti, Co-Founder and Chairman. “There is significant demand from multifamily borrowers for flexible $5 million to $30 million financing solutions, but the market has struggled with inefficiency, opacity, and inconsistent execution. This capital allows us to serve that segment with speed, transparency, and reliability — at scale.”

Serving the Underserved Segment

With 97% of all outstanding multifamily loans under $30 million and $1.0 trillion of multifamily loans set to mature over the next 4 years, the $5 million to $30 million multifamily loan segment represents one of the most active yet underserved areas of the market. Traditional banks have pulled back, while many large institutional lenders prioritize larger loans due to similar overhead costs and underwriting effort. Ease Capital’s model addresses this imbalance by pairing purpose-built technology and AI with committed capital, enabling efficient deployment in a segment long constrained by outdated infrastructure.

Ease’s new bridge loan program will support the acquisition and refinancing of transitional multifamily assets nationwide, with a focus on high-quality sponsors seeking predictable execution and transparency throughout the lending process.

Enabling Lending Infrastructure-as-a-Service

The announcement builds on Ease Capital’s recent unveiling of its integrated lending platform, which unifies origination, underwriting, and asset management into a single operating system for multifamily credit. Key capabilities include:

• Automated deal intake and document ingestion, accelerating cycle times and responsiveness

• Proprietary data platform and AI-supported loan sizing and underwriting, enabling faster credit decisions and certainty of execution for borrowers

• Centralized portfolio and AI-assisted asset management tools, enabling proactive oversight across loans and improved post-loan closing experience for borrowers

By combining AI with dedicated institutional capital, Ease Capital is creating a scalable framework for lenders, brokers, and borrowers operating in a fragmented market.

“Our goal is to be the trusted infrastructure layer for multifamily lending,” added Memo Sanchez, CTO at Ease. “This additional commitment accelerates that mission and reinforces our role as a long-term partner to sponsors, intermediaries and institutional capital alike.”
