HERE'S YOUR INVITATION TO IGNITE YOUR INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE TIM HOUGHTEN
“a pool of highly prized borrowers who have been in business for at least 10 years.” In fact, this lenderbroker
does not even operate a borrower facing platform. They seek out those they see are the most qualified. If
builders do find them Carrie says they “accept only around 20% of the requests received.” The funds are used
for acquisition, development, and construction, and target a 10% to 12% annualized return to investors.
This is NOT Wells Fargo
Among the refreshing differences that investors will find at Ignite
Funding is a serious dedication to sustainability and transparency.
Those are words which are easy for companies to spout out these
days to capitalize on trends. But this company proves it by really
putting the information out there. Other CEOs, especially in this
male dominated field might deem some of this transparency clearly
unnecessary and going too far. Yet, it is clearly in favor of the
investors, as it holds their asset manager to a high standard and
ensures they are working hard to deliver the best results today and
over the long term.
Some of the ways you’ll see this displayed via the firm’s website include a calendar of deals being funded, five
years’ worth of detailed performance documentation, and even information on defaults. That’s right; no matter how
diligent and careful you are some loans will default. Some big banks have become infamous for how they hide this
information for so long. Not here. Carrie Cook’s team clearly displays any default information, along with the cures.
The data is encouraging too, with the company recouping over 100% of investor capital even in some of the worst
performance cases displayed. Carrie credits this success not only to the investors and borrowers involved, but her
teams attitude of being willing to “run into the fire, not from it,” as well as the consolidated approach of completely in
house operations from origination to servicing and loss mitigation.
