This bank does not loan money

This bank does not loan money. Do not waste your time. There LTV is horrible. They have so many requirements that will make a loan impossible. Very high interest.

If you like wasting your time and hurting your credit and not getting a loan this is the bank for you. They also are very slow at underwriting. It could take months.

A welcomed change of pace!

In an industry that is ripe with rigidity when it comes to lending products, Acra stands out. They are very wholistic when it comes to assessing a borrower, loan, and property - which provides products to consumers whom otherwise may struggle or fail to close on transactions. I will do business again with Acra and look forward to it!

ACRA is the BEST for NON-QM LOANS

I recently had two loans that were for a foreign national. These were "difficult" loans that most lenders could not do, however, Acra handled them perfectly! My AE, Stephen Salantri, and my account manager Lindsay Stafford partnered with me throughout the entire process. Without them, I would not have gotten these loans to close. They are very responsive, knowledgeable, and diligent. We also needed to move these loans through closing very fast and Alexandra Miller and Alynne Clay from the closing and funding dept. were critical in meeting our closing deadline. I highly recommend Acra Lending for all Non-QM loans. They truly help you succeed!

Made It Happen

I was working a Bk Stmt deal for several months with Stephen Salantri and Valerie Shields. There were times when we thought the deal was going south due to some challenging conditions. It wasn't really a pleasant experience, but Stephen and Valerie hung in and pushed and shoved until we got to CTC. I appreciate their efforts !
