Zeus Lending
Five-star reviewers consistently name individual loan officers-Akin, William, Pamela, Melissa-for their knowledge, responsiveness, and ability to close loans in weeks. These deals move smoothly for borrowers who work with the right person. The serious problem emerges after funding: construction draw delays drag on for weeks despite completed work, requirements change between draws, and interest keeps accruing at rates around 15%. Lien removal has also stalled post-payoff, forcing borrowers to hire their own attorneys. The mismatch is stark. Early-stage borrowers praise speed and clarity; mid-project and post-close, the same company frustrates investors with funding gridlock and opaque review processes. For someone seeking a fix-and-flip or construction loan, the risk lies in what happens after the check clears.
