Searchers Capital N Sam Houston Pkwy, Houston

Unfortunately, my experience with Searchers Capital was not great. All the admin staff in TX were wonderful. Getting the loan was easy, getting the draws for rehab were easy, paying off the loan was easy. My issue lies with the inspection portion of the rehab draw. I was under the impression that work done would be inspected/looked at in order to verify it was complete before funds were released to me to pay my contractor. Apparently, my inspector, who has "20 years of experience" or so, ......you how what, I don't know what the hell he did. In short, I'm out 46k because I thought I could rely on my inspector to make sure my contractor was doing the work, not even doing the work right, just doing the work. The whole thing is partially my fault. First flip. Picked a bad contractor. Agreed to high interest only payments. Misplaced my trust. But I know I'm definitely not using hard money ever again. Nor will I ever even look at Ohio for investing again. I probably should have gone with one of the bigger lenders like Finance of America, I think they help verify legit contractors.... I'll attach some pictures of what 46,000 dollars of work looks like to the eyes of someone with 20 years or so experience, apparently. All the work was done by a bad contractor, the lack of quality is not the fault of anyone from Searchers Capital. Again, it's really the lack of protection that I thought an inspection before a draw would give me.

Top notch lending company, the best in the business for sure. From their loan officers to their backend team that truly make the loan process possible. They’re the Pappy Van Winkle of the lending world!!!

Had the opportunity as a first time flipper to work with searchers and their staff. Wes exhibited much patience with all my questions and lack of understanding, lol. Sherry was extremely accessible and spoke so nicely to us. Rosa was very knowledgeable regarding our loan and also very accessible. We look forward to working with them in the future!

Excellent team at Searchers. Wes and Rosa was extremely helpful! Highly recommended.

Kellen was a great asset helping me through my first rental property. Explaining in detail what was required to proceed through the hard money lending process and distribution.

Looking for a loan for your next investment property? Look no further. Matt and Kellen are awesome to work with! They first funded a deal for me a couple years ago and till this day I am still referring clients to them!

I had a great experience working with Matt at Searchers Capital. He went above and beyond with some of the problems that came up in the process that were no fault of their company. I will be looking to do business with them again in the future.

Great company to work with. Wes is awesome!

I would leave no stars if I could. Terrible experience. Lack of professionalism is the biggest issue. No value for their clients. The response to their disrespect of my partner is not we've been in business for 20 years and won a bunch of awards. Will never do business with them again. They have been awful to work with.

Very easy to work with and very accommodating. Not the cheapest
