Ryan Brewer
Ryan Brewer – Pulled Off a Miracle!
Massive shoutout to Ryan Brewer for saving a deal that looked completely dead. Our client was facing receivership, and with just 14 days to complete a £945k re-bridge on a £1.4m property, Ryan got it done.
As the broker (me – Mo at Prosperus Funding), I was on this every step of the way, and Ryan was right there with me took every call (even five times a day!), stayed calm under pressure, and worked seamlessly with solicitors and underwriters.
If you need a lender who actually delivers, Ryan’s your guy. Can’t recommend him enough.
