In 2011, I partnered with my son, Miles Arnold, to form Owner Builder Loans, LLC. Having witnessed the collapse of the housing market and mortgage industry in 2008, we set out to create a highly dynamic construction finance firm that can thrive in an increasingly regulated industry. Equally as important as adapting to the ever changing regulatory climate, we maintain a precise focus on creating value for our borrowers by removing obstacles in the financing process that are typical with other lenders.As the Owner and CEO of Owner Builder Loans, LLC (affectionately known as just "OBL"), my main responsibility is to both create and preserve value for our investors. I do this by focusing on risk assessment, underwriting and project viability. I personally review and consult on every loan application. My extensive experience in business and risk management doesn't just benefit our investors however, they also benefit our borrowers! A fortunate byproduct of stricter underwriting principles and localized market analyses are higher quality and more successful loans. OBL operates with a zero-tolerance for Loan Defaults and we can proudly say that we have never had a loan Default! It is my job to both empower borrowers as owner builder as well as to help them maintain attainable goals of home ownership. Nobody can guarantee the success of any project but having financed the construction of over 3,000 different homes, I have seen it all, I know what to look for and I know what to avoid.Currently, OBL services Arizona, Colorado and Michigan.www.OwnerBuilderLoans.com
