The best part of any conference? The connections made off stage.

Our VP Mayumi Bowers and President Jeff LaMotte represented Val-Chris Investments at Fortra Conferences in Las Vegas last month, and while Jeff’s panel on loan servicing made headlines (see our last post), it was the conversations in between that made the trip worth it.

From late-night strategy talks on the rooftop to meaningful one-on-ones with industry peers, Mayumi and Jeff spent the week strengthening the relationships that keep our lending network strong across all 11 states we serve.

After 50 years in private lending, we know this: deals start with trust, and trust starts with showing up.

Thank you for bringing the industry together once again.

Our President, Jeff LaMotte, took the stage at Fortra Conferences in Las Vegas yesterday as a featured panelist on “To Insource or Outsource? The Real Costs, Risks, and Rewards of Loan Servicing.”

Alongside industry leaders from Servicing Pros, The Mortgage Office, and Fortra Law, Jeff shared real-world insight on what it takes to manage loan servicing effectively - the costs, the tradeoffs, and what actually protects your portfolio long-term.

50 years in private lending means we’ve seen it all. And we’re always honored to share what we’ve learned with the broader community.

Thank you for an incredible event.

Miami vibes and meaningful connections. 🌴

Val-Chris was in the room at NPLA Miami - one of the biggest private lending conferences in the country - and we came ready to connect.

From packed keynote sessions on broker certification to booth conversations with some of the sharpest minds in private lending, our Jake Liedahl brought the Val-Chris energy to the floor.

VCI Recently Funded Investment Properties 🌇🏙️ Even though we close a good deal of loans on residential properties, we can lend on most types of commercial buildings as well. Below are just a couple of examples:

Church Property Financing (1st Trust Deed)
We successfully funded a $800,000 first trust deed secured by a commercial church property in California. Non-traditional property types like churches are frequently overlooked by institutional lenders, but we understand how to underwrite these assets responsibly, and providing borrowers with needed capital while maintaining strong collateral fundamentals.
 
Industrial Condo Junior Financing (2nd Trust Deed)
We also closed a second trust deed secured by a mixed-use / industrial condominium. Industrial condos can present unique challenges for conventional lenders, especially in junior lien positions. We’re comfortable evaluating these assets and structuring solutions that help borrowers unlock equity efficiently.
