Story

In 2010, two U.S. Marine Corps veterans emerged from the battlefield with a bold vision: to transform real estate investing by providing reliable, innovative financing where traditional lenders fell short. Starting small in Greenville, SC, they bootstrapped Lima One Capital through sheer grit, closing initial loans amid post-recession chaos and rapidly scaling to fund billions in fix-and-flip, rental, and construction projects. Backed by MFA Financial's resources since their partnership, they've weathered market storms – from rising rates to pandemic shifts – emerging stronger as a national force in business-purpose lending. Today, with $10 billion funded and operations nationwide, Lima One's hero's journey continues, empowering investors to build and stabilize communities while offering employees a magnetic destination of purpose-driven growth, veteran-inspired integrity, and exponential opportunities.
