How Stratton Equities Got Its Start
The Founder and CEO of Stratton Equities, Michael Mikhail, was a lifelong entrepreneur and innovator in the real estate market. Upon purchasing his first home at 19 years old and traveling to 19 countries within five years, Mikhail became inspired by the idea that he should start his own business in the United States.
Aware of the mortgage industry’s transformation resulting from regulations presented between 2008 to 2012, Mikhail knew it was time to seize the opportunity. He founded Stratton Equities in 2017, eventually growing it to become one of the leading companies in the mortgage and real estate industries.
Next, it’s essential to clarify precisely what a direct private money lender is, so you understand what sets our services apart from the competition.
What Are Direct Hard Money Lenders?
A direct hard money lender, also known as a direct private money lender, is a non-institutional (non-bank) individual or company that loans money, usually secured by an asset (note & deed of trust), for the purpose of funding a real estate transaction.
There are many advantages to using a direct hard money lender, including:
Less underwriting
Faster closing times (7-14 days)
Fewer guidelines
Access to endless capital, meaning the opportunity for endless deals
