Our Story
Our process is built around helping loan brokers close more deals.
Broker-only, relationship protected: We work exclusively with loan brokers. Inbound direct loan inquiries are promptly referred to our trusted network of brokers.
You get paid: Broker fees are clearly listed on the Term Sheet and included in the Loan Documents, so you are paid directly from escrow at funding.
Fast, lite loan quotes: Get a quote and loan summary in two business days once your quick application is complete without gathering a full document package upfront so you can get back to your client quickly.
A Broker-first Model
How the Platform has Evolved
The platform began with micro-balance commercial real estate bridge lending and has expanded to include long-term financing for stabilized commercial and multifamily 5+ unit properties and short-term acquisition-and-renovation financing for multifamily properties with five or more units. More programs mean more of your clients’ deals can be placed with one lender you already know, and fewer you have to turn away or shop around.
What Brokers can Still Count on
Bring us the real challenge up front and get a direct answer on whether the deal has a path forward.
Practical underwriting that looks at the whole deal, so strengths and compensating factors count.
Clear communication and defined next steps at every stage, so you can keep your borrower informed.
Why Kirkland was Created
Large commercial lenders often optimize for larger balances, primary markets and standardized transactions. Through its initial CRE Bridge program, Kirkland focused on a different need: commercial properties that support local businesses, apartment housing and real estate investors, including properties in secondary, tertiary and rural markets.
Do Well and Do Good
We actively support loans in secondary and tertiary markets and in select small towns, where borrowers are refurbishing affordable housing and small commercial buildings through our CRE Bridge program. These projects strengthen local economies and leave a positive mark on their communities and the environment. We are proud to stand behind borrowers from minority communities and investors working to improve housing conditions in minority neighborhoods, so the deals your borrowers care about have a lender that shares that commitment.
Loan Broker Review
“My commercial mortgage brokerage firm does a lot of bridge loan deals and it seems like I always have a deal in my pipeline with Kirkland's name on it. My experience working with this company has been nothing but world-class service and professionalism. It is a rare thing to meet a group of people who say what they mean and mean what they say. Kirkland Capital Group are those people.”
