I had a very disappointing experience with this company during a commercial home equity loan process. Key information and terms were misleading and misrepresented statements that later proved to be inaccurate. Sadly, Ike Ukasoanya (Mooresville) and his assistant (Patrick) never showed up to the closing. The connection and conspiracy with the the bank called PHH Mortgage has been horrific. I would never recommend their services to anyone!

Dishonest and do not care if you lose your money.

Unfortunately, this is the first time I am writing a negative review but also the first time I lost 20k because of a business. Investors please be very cautious if you are going to proceed with Rain City Capital. Long story short the company denied my loan on the day of closing. First they told me on the day of closing that they worried about exit strategy even though all the numbers plus appraisals met their minimum thresholds. I wad told for 3 months everything looked great. Then I was told I may need to put more money down (which is was not happy with but was willing to do it if needed be) then I was told they wouldn't loan because of where the property was and it did not match their "demographics". I understand they are free to loan to whomever but I could have been told the property did not match their "demographics" in February when I sent the info. For the past three months I have sent everything they needed and on the day of closing they do this with no care in the world. I am very frustrated with the professionalism of this company and if you do decide to work with them please triple check everything so you do not lose your earnest money.

Hi Chris,

Thank you for sharing your experience and for taking the time to work with us offline toward a solution since this occurred. We know how much effort goes into each deal, and we don’t take it lightly when things don’t come together as expected.

Every loan is evaluated based on more than just numbers—in this case, concerns arose late in the process that impacted our ability to move forward. That timing was understandably frustrating, and we’ve since clarified our internal processes to ensure clearer communication upfront to prevent this from happening again.

We appreciate your time and feedback and we wish you the best on your next investment.

Shameful and dishonest

Shameful and dishonest! I approached Rain City for a fix and flip loan and made it abundantly clear I had a bankruptcy from early 2023. I was assured that my bankruptcy was not an issue as they are an asset-based lender. When I was ready to make my $5,000 earnest money deposit (EMD) on a home, I reached out to Branden with Rain City again to get assurance the bankruptcy was not a problem. He assured me it was not. I made the EMD deposit only to learn when getting ready to close I was denied funding from Rain City because of my BK and resulting in me losing my $5,000 EMD.

What type of business conducts themselves in this manner? They should have their license revoked! I will be reaching out to any and all agencies that regulate the finance sector to issue complaints.

Fast & Reliable Lender

I recently had the pleasure of working with Adrian Romero at Rain City Capital for a bridge loan on my latest property acquisition. From the outset, Adrian made the entire process not only smooth but impressively quick, which is crucial in the fast-paced real estate investment world.

I truly appreciated the guidance Adrian provided throughout the loan process. It’s clear that he values his clients and goes above and beyond to meet their needs. If you’re looking for a reliable and supportive hard money lender, I highly recommend Adrian Romero and Rain City Capital for your next investment project. Working with him was a fantastic experience, and I look forward to future opportunities to collaborate again.

Chris did an outstanding job at communication and was incredibly fast at coming up with a strategy to help me acquire multiple deals at once. I would recommend Rain Capital and Chris specifically to all my friends and connections.

I was asked for my personal medical history, which is against HIPA Laws and I supplied them and this is their response.

I believed in you and your project but know my guidelines and have to fund a common ground. If you think I am doing something I shouldn't then you shouldn't do business with me.....

I have requested copies from Medical City Frisco, Baylor Scott and White. But albeit you're even requesting this information is a total invasion of privacy, and HIPA Laws, (which you should know, if you already don’t and could result in the cancellation of your license, if applicable), I am sending you what I have."

Good experience, highly recommend!

First time working with Rain City Capital, an investor friend of mine recommended Chris Burdick. We used him and closed our first deal! Thanks to Chris and his team for making things happen as fast as they could! I definitely recommend using Chris at Rain City Capital.

Got the Job Done Fast

Chris was great to work with. Responsive, available, and quick. He walked me through the whole process of obtaining a loan and then worked on the back end so my tasks were simple and I could close fast.

Excellent support and loans

I have been getting excellent support and guidance from Chris Burdick at Raincity Capital. Their bridge and 30 year loans are great products which helped to expand my real estate business significantly. Since the first time we talked, Chris did a great job understanding my business model and providing the guidance to keep improving it. I am very happy with Chris Burdick and Raincity quality of work, products and customer care.

Professional, responsive, hard money lenders

Alex was exceptionally responsive, giving updated guidance as early as possible throughout the underwriting process. Their communication and execution was exactly what was needed to make the deal go smoothly, and they provided the most competitive rate with the best overall fee structure.

Alex Brosy is the man!

Alex Brosy crushed it! He was quick and effective at getting us all dialed in to close on our first loan with Rain City. Any question we had, Alex was always able to deliver an answer. We look forward to working with him and Rain City in the future. Thanks Alex!

Chris Burdick is AMAZING

Chris Burdick is by far the most amazing Loan Officer, he is always over exceeding our expectations. Chris built immediate rapport with us through his follow up, follow through, immense knowledge of the investment world, being able to look at deals with us and analyze the margins, his integrity-keeping his word and always sending us new investment deals. He always under promises and over delivers. I 100% trust Chris and his team with our portfolio and all future deals. I am grateful for our forever partnership. Thanks Chris and Nicole!

Closing was fast and stress free

Closing was fast and stress free. Needed to close quickly on a property, and Rain City was there to help. I recommend Rain City to anyone looking for financing on a fixer or rehab.

Great communication and fast closings

The process was quick and easy. The communication part was fantastic, everyone responds in a timely manner and gets the job done. Other lenders drag their feet, as if they are doing you a favor, but with these guys and girls at Rain City we closed on a property in 3 days.. Yes, 3 days. The only reason we didn't close in one day, was because of how long the bank took. Cheers to Rain City and Ryan Morell for doing great business!
