My experiences working with PLP always exceed my initial expectations. Juliene and Laura take time to meet with the borrowers on every deal, both are very good at communicating process and progress with all involved in the transaction, and make the underwriting and closing process smooth. They pay close attention to our transactions together and are always quick to respond to questions. The whole team is a pleasure to do business with!
