Lender Testimonials
I have invested in numerous companies, ventures and financial vehicles over the years with much success. I was referred to Jeff Hamilton from a business acquaintance in regard to his private mortgage company. Seemed like he had a good model so I initially lent a modest amount of money. I was impressed with Mr. Hamilton's attention to to my investment well after he received his brokerage fee. This type of dedication and commitment to his clients along with receiving the highest returns on my investment in the market has lead me to invest in over a million dollars through his brokerage firm.
This is just the beginning. I like this guys work ethic and knowledge of the real estate market. He even rejected a referral borrower a friend of mine sent his way. Love this guy. Wish my other brokers had the same dedication and commitment to their clients as Mr.Hamilton.
Highly recommend him if you want a safe and high return on your money.

"Jeff Hamilton does more than broker private real estate loans. He is a real estate expert with a good head for finance and an able and trusted adviser. I have worked with Jeff for 2 years and found that he balances the needs of both lender and borrower so that each transaction is a win-win.
His extensive experience has allowed him to plan for the various contingencies that many do not anticipate.
I look forward to a long relationship with Jeff."

“I got involved in lending my money through Jeff almost 3 years ago. I am happy to be working with him and have been extremely satisfied with his performance. I have found Jeff to be extremely passionate about his work. He is right on top of all the loans he brokers with me well after the closing is over. He looks out for my money like it was his while always treating his Borrowers fairly and honestly. Jeff is a very creative thinker as well and I like that too when lending on private mortgages.”

"I had the good fortune of meeting Jeff Hamilton very early in my commercial lending ventures. Since then, he has become both a mentor and a trusted adviser. If you work with Jeff you will not find a slick, fast talking guy and a double breasted, shark skin suit. Rather, you will find a hardworking man who possesses quiet wisdom and insightful knowledge of real estate, lending and human behavior. He is results oriented, and driven by integrity over deal making. For these reasons he will be a valuable business partner if you are a borrower, a lender or if you simply want to sell a piece of real estate (which he has also done for me, with very satisfying results). He begins every transaction with the end result in mind, and I have found no one in the real estate or lending business who works harder than Jeff.”

“Jeff got us involved with private lending over 2 years ago. We have found him to be a very knowledgeable and trustworthy person. We like his approach to mortgage brokering in that he has set a standard whereby if he wouldn’t lend his own money on a deal he never would expect or ask us to. He services and follows up with our borrowers well after a closing and he has been paid. We have come to appreciate this part of his makeup and would highly recommend potential lenders to do business with this guy.”

“As a lender I have found Jeff to be an honest professional. He never tried to “sell me a loan” for a commission. His lending expertise is unmatched. We have a robust track record and highly recommend his services for lending opportunities in Rhode Island and Massachusetts.”

“Jeff runs a nice business. He has had many years of experience as a realtor so he looks at properties differently than a lot of mortgage brokers and appraisers. He has a good handle on what properties will resell for in the market after they are rehabbed. I like that and it gives me confidence when lending money on rehabbed properties. He also works closely with all my borrowers so we avoid problems. I always feel like he has my best interests in mind. I have made good returns on investing my money through Jeff. I feel so confident in the way he does business I have recommended family members and friends to invest their money through him as well.”

Borrower Testimonials
"I have been investing in properties for over 20 years and I just started borrowing through Private Lender of New England about a year ago. I found them to be really fast on both the approval process and disbursement of rehab funds while this had often been a problem for me with other lenders. Also, Jeff, the owner, has given me leads for investors to wholesale properties along with leads for potential flips for myself. I like how easy it is dealing with Private Lender of New England. I will definitely borrow from them in the future and recommend the same for other investors."

"Jeff helped me pave my way into the flipping world with knowledge and ease. He took the time to understand my needs and personality, which he then linked me up with the appropriate lender. He not only helped me with my first loan, but believed in my ability to grow within this field and helped with me utilizing 3 loans at one time in order to have concurrent projects. His network has allowed for me to grow my business and have consistent projects. Jeff’s willingness to help with private lending and knowledge in the real estate field has truly been a blessing. He is honest, reliable and a pleasure to work with. Thanks Jeff!"

"Jeff and I were introduced to each other by a mutual friend. As someone who has had experience dealing with conventional banks. I know how difficult and extensive their loan process can be, which is usually never good for a private investor. Jeff explained to me what his company does and exactly what he could do for me, and four deals later "he's still my man!" I appreciate the fact that he is always honest. He tells you exactly what he can do for you and does it very diligently. As his client, he also does his best to help you succeed which is rare in this business. I would recommend him to any serious investor looking for funding while building a relationship with someone they can trust."

"I started buying rehab properties four years ago. I was fortunate enough to come across the Private Lender of New England website about a year ago. I connected with Jeff Hamilton and purchased my first rehab property, which I currently own and rent out. Since then, I have done a total of 8 property finance deals within the past 12 months with Jeff. Jeff always manages to pull the deals together and offers you a variety of loans. Jeff is very knowledgeable both on the financing and the real estate side. As I write this testimonial, Jeff is working on securing funding for two other properties I'm currently purchasing."
Great job, Jeff!
Great job, Jeff!

"I've worked with Jeff from Private Lender Of New England for two investment properties, and have nothing but good things to say. Jeff has always been responsive when I've had questions (and believe me, I had several the first time around) and because he works with many lenders, he's the guy to get the financing you need. I look forward to investment # 3, and when I find it, my first phone call will be to Jeff."
-Tony I. - 07/2015 in West Warwick, RI
“I was introduced to Jeff less than a year ago. Since meeting him I have done multiple deals with him and plan on many more. When I met Jeff I was a rookie house flipper eager to grow and he gave me the chance I needed. That chance led me to a life changing new business venture and I couldn't be happier. I feel very confident borrowing through Jeff because he does not lend unless the project makes sense for everyone involved including the borrower. And to me that is very important."
-Jay S. - 05/2015 in Warwick, RI
“Jeff Hamilton is our go to private lender. He is fast, efficient, well connected, and he always delivers. Jeff is fair to the borrowers and the lenders and he is a resource to both sides. We’re always happy and confident when we refer Jeff and he’s helped our clients make big returns on their investments.”
-Matt P. – 09/2014 in West Warwick, RI
“Jeff is the type of guy that if he believes in you, he will try everything in his power to make it happen. On my past investment property, I had little money to put down and wanted to do all the rehab myself which Jeff doesn’t usually allow. But he trusted me when no one else would and got me a 100% loan. I came through for him and his lender and completed the rehab and just refinanced out of the private loan in 4 months. Later I asked him why he went to bat for me and he said ‘because I felt, Frankie, you were a person of character and in my business that’s more important than putting 20% cash down and us controlling the rehab budget.’ I’m happy he made it work for me and I will continue borrowing through Jeff in the future. Next time with a little more money down of course.”
-Frank D. – 08/2014 in Johnston, RI
“I have borrowed money through Jeff for the past 2 ½ years now. His real estate background has been very helpful to me in planning my rehab projects. He is always looking at what needs to be done in order for my ‘flip’ to sell for the most money after rehab. I appreciate his concern. Often times he has gone out on the limb for me with his lenders when I have needed short term assistance. His fees are reasonable and I will continue doing business with him going forward.”
-Peter C. – 07/2014 in Warwick, RI
“Jeff is a very aggressive person when it comes to doing his business. He works fast and is cool under pressure. He takes on the low end properties as much as the high end properties and treats every property and person equally. I like that he is a down to earth person. The other thing I like about Jeff is he seems to always have an interest in me making money. If he doesn’t think I’ll make enough money on a deal, he will tell me up front. I have passed on deals and smartly so because of his advice. I deal with a lot of private lenders and I have found Jeff to be straight forward, reliable, and one of the best.”
-Ed A. – 06/2014 in Central Falls, RI
“We have found Jeff to be one of the most professional commercial mortgage brokers we have ever worked with. He is courteous, straight forward and easy to work with. If he says he can do a private loan he comes through every time and on time. Through his numerous real estate contacts, he has even given us leads on some properties to invest in. As we have other rehab projects going forward, we will definitely be contacting Jeff."
