What other Loan Options are available?

Aurum and Sharpe was founded in 2017 by me, Bryan Hanley, and one of my best friends, Rudy Renelique. After many years working at big banks like Chase, and Wells Fargo, we decided we could bring value to a mortgage market that was starving for independent thinkers. So we started Aurum and Sharpe over a phone call about financing a multi-family deal in Brooklyn. Since starting this business we’ve been on many adventures from financing a $20 million portfolio of single families, to meeting the President of Rwanda and Finance Minister of Namibia.

Rudy has gone on to start his own firm, Overture Capital, while I’ve stayed on to grow Aurum and Sharpe. Aurum is the original Latin word for gold (that’s why the periodic table has it listed at Au). We chose it because we think of our word as “as good as Gold.” And in that vein, we want to add value to every customer we come in contact with. Our promise is that by working with us, you will increase your Freedom, Purpose, and Fulfillment.

Our process includes learning your overall objectives and where you want to go in your life so that we make sure your financing enhances your life and gets you to your destination much faster. What that means though, is that we are not like every other broker on the street that will only do a surface level amount of learning about you, your life, and your motivations. For us, that is Gold. We want to learn how we can tailor your financing so that you thrive in your life! So before we talk about rates, terms, or anything else, we are going to try and figure out how to add value through financing.

We know this approach isn’t for everyone. But if this resonates with you, lets talk: 917 475 6207

Virtually everyone dreams of owning a home. Besides the pride and satisfaction in knowing that you never again have to worry about a place to lay your head, there is the obvious fact that buying a home is a valuable investment. Investing in a house is an excellent way to diversify your portfolio. You can use your house as leverage to buy other properties or as collateral to get loans for other investments. When it comes to buying a house, the first question on everyone’s lips is, “where do I get the money from?” Unlike stocks or cryptocurrencies, you can’t invest in property with “little change.” You need massive capital, which you often don’t have lying around idly. This is where loans and mortgages come in. You can collect loans from banks, insurance companies, credit unions, and other financial institutions […]
