Mr. Scott combines decades of practical experience, an impressive body of work with quality developers/sponsors and an intuitive nature to provide attractive equity and debt alternatives for preleased developments.

REPRESENTING DEVELOPERS/BORROWERS

Representing developers/borrowers and raising equity capital is Stephen Scott's specialty. With these skills he continues to be extremely successful with investment banking, negotiating contracts / leases and an array of related legal documents, teaching real estate investment principles, selling, and financing
income-producing commercial properties.  

Typically, his clients do not tend to invest any capital in their own projects nor give away any ownership. Working in that context, he is among the best at providing equity capital and high LTC construction loans (up to 100%). Very few commercial real estate professionals have more experience in this area.
