Permanent Loans
Long-term debt for stabilized commercial properties — banks, life companies, and institutional lenders at competitive rates.
Mortgage brokerage, construction and permanent loans, bridge financing, loan servicing, property inspections, and licensed sales brokerage — the full scope of services our family-run firm has delivered since 1986.


Mortgage brokerage and capital placement for commercial developers, property owners, and investors — from permanent debt through construction and bridge financing.

Licensed brokerage and on-site property oversight across New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware — supporting purchases, sales, and lender-required inspections.
Our clients value long-term lender relationships, transparent communication, and financing structured around their goals — backed by decades of closed transactions.
“We focus on personal relationships with each client and our commitment to achieving their goals — not volume for volume's sake. Our experience and industry expertise allows us to provide creative solutions to all commercial real estate finance needs.”

Charles Kauffman
President & Founder
“Decades of connections to banks, life insurance companies, and institutional debt funds mean we source the best available terms in the marketplace for every project we touch.”
