Even with strong credit and plenty of options, this U.S. investor chose Lendai, not because he had to, but because he needed speed, strategy, and a lender that thinks like an investor. In just 9 days, he closed on a $580K Miami property with confidence.

When a global investor found the perfect property but had just 20 days to close, most would have backed away.

But instead of missing the opportunity, he made one smart decision:
💡 Refinance his existing rental property in Savannah, GA to unlock the equity he needed—fast.

With Lendai’s streamlined process, the loan was:
✅ Clear-to-Close in 11 working days
✅ Fully Funded in 20
✅ Executed flawlessly—no delays, no surprises

The result?
One refinance. Two active properties. Multiple strategic wins.

In today’s high-inventory market, speed and certainty matter more than ever—and Lendai delivers both.
