“As first time hotel buyers we weren’t quite sure what to expect with the hotel loan process.  We talked with several lenders and went with Shawn because he gave us the most confidence that he would close the deal.  Shawn has relationships with a number of lenders which meant he could shop the loan to match us and the deal with the right lender.  We were able to speak quite candidly with Shawn about any challenges and he guided us through the hotel loan process from start to finish.  Shawn will be our first call on our next hotel purchase.  Thank you Shawn!”
