Terry Luker Discusses Being an Advocate For Your Clients
With lending parameters continuing to tighten for small business owners across the United States, Commercial Loan Brokers are having to learn now, more than ever, the importance of being an advocate for your client and their needs as a business. Continued learning, strengthening lender relationships, educating yourself on new loan products, and increasing expertise in SBA lending will be what aids brokers when it comes to finding creative solutions for their clients.
Terry Luker has always had a passion for continued education when it comes to the Commercial Lending industry and wants to ensure that Commercial Loan Brokers are taking advantage of the resources that will make an impact with their client-base. With the Commercial Loan Broker Association's upcoming Conference & Expo this October 1-3, loan brokers in our space will have the ability to make new connections, participate in hands-on training, and leave with a renewed outlook on securing the proper strategies for their current and future clients. Give Terry's video below a listen!
Terry Luker and Jeff Luker Launch the Commercial Loan Broker Association
Exciting times are ahead for the teams at Alternative Capital Solutions and Commercial Capital BIDCO! In order to fill a gap within the Commercial Loan Broker industry, Terry Luker and Jeff Luker - along with business partner Jon Cosentino of Fairwinds Commercial Capital - have launched the Commercial Loan Broker Association (CLBA). Terry, Jeff and Jon created the CLBA as a way for Commercial Loan Brokers to establish meaningful relationships with lenders and other brokers across the United States, increase their deal flow, as well as tap into thoughtful professional development and education opportunities. Using their combined experience of over a century within the CRE and Finance industries, CLBA's main goal will be to drive broker success and strengthen broker + lender relationships.
Their inaugural CLBA Conference & Expo will be hosted in Orlando, Florida at the Hilton Lake Buena Vista at Disney Springs this October 1 - 3, 2024. The Conference & Expo will take brokers and lenders into deep educational dives covering industry trends, key strategies for growth, and new technologies that will benefit their businesses. Networking and exposition hours will allow for all attendees to connect, build relationships, and talk deals with contacts across the country.
