About Us

At Friends First Capital, we believe getting the financing you need should feel like asking a friend for help—not reaching out to a stranger who doesn’t understand your industry or can’t move fast enough. After years in the finance industry structuring M&A deals, real estate acquisitions, and large-scale construction loans, we have the knowledge and experience to secure the financing you need, when you need it. We’re here to connect our “friends” on both sides of the table—business owners, investors, and developers looking for capital, and our direct lending friends who specialize in creative, non-bank financing. Our job is to introduce two friends who can help each other grow. Whether you're unlocking shareholder value through M&A, scaling your business with new CAPEX, acquiring real estate, developing residential, mixed-use, or commercial projects, or tapping into equity from properties you already own—we’re here to make that connection happen—with speed, clarity, and trust.

Here’s what we help finance:

  • ● M&A transactions and business expansion
  • ● Commercial real estate acquisitions and cash-out refinances (owner-occupied and investment)
  • ● Ground-up construction for multifamily, mixed-use, and commercial projects
  • ● Major development deals that need outside-the-box solutions

With access to a deep bench of non-bank lenders, we’re able to structure financing that traditional banks can’t. From $1 million to $400 million, we tap into both the capital and debt markets to get deals done. So, if you’re building, buying, expanding, or refinancing—don’t hesitate to reach out. Friends First Capital, is the team you call when you want the capital you need… from people you trust.
