PHOENIX, February 18, 2025 –(BUSINESS WIRE)– RRA Capital is thrilled to declare that it has been awarded the esteemed ‘Rainmakers in CRE Debt, Equity & Finance 2025’ honors by GlobeSt. This accolade underscores the firm’s inventive strategies in commercial real estate (CRE) finance and the significant influence it has had on the sector through effective lending practices and robust relationships with borrowers.
RRA Capital has successfully facilitated over $1.9 billion in financing for real estate sponsors across the country, providing bridge lending options that empower developers and investors to seize market opportunities. The firm has been at the forefront of industry developments with proactive investments in industrial outdoor storage (IOS), conversions from hotels to multifamily housing, and dynamic strategies in the office sector.
“GlobeSt. has consistently functioned as a Wall Street Journal for serious players in real estate—sharp, perceptive, and relevant for sponsors and institutional investors,” remarked Boots Dunlap, CEO of RRA Capital. “Receiving recognition from them is a significant honor. It’s a humbling experience, especially when positioned alongside the industry’s elite. However, we must recognize that this award is fundamentally a testament to RRA’s originations and underwriting team. Their relentless efforts in securing deals during the most challenging market conditions since the GFC are what truly make this achievement possible.”
RRA Capital is distinguished by its reliability, speed, and assurance in managing intricate transactions. With an unmatched average closing time of just four days, the firm has established a loyal base of repeat borrowers and broker partnerships, which constitute over 50% of its total loan volume.
In response to the interest rate increases of 2022 and 2023, RRA maintained its commitment to providing liquidity through customized bridge products, aiding borrowers in navigating unpredictable market fluctuations. A prominent instance was an $8.7 million loan for hotel refinancing in Jacksonville, FL, enabling the sponsor to execute their business strategy and achieve a full repayment within 28 months.
RRA Capital’s influence extends far beyond lending; the firm is deeply invested in building lasting relationships and engaging with the community. Its support includes initiatives for Feed My Starving Children, The Bowery Mission, and Project Healing Waters, a nonprofit organization committed to assisting military veterans through therapeutic fly fishing.
