Fairway is Fairway America
Matt Burk, President and CEO of Fairway Commercial Mortgage Corp, is proud to announce a new partnership with John Brooke. As a result, Fairway Commercial Mortgage becomes Fairway America, LLC effective January 1, 2008. The new partnership positions the company for growth as a national specialty finance lender.
Under management of Matt Burk, Fairway Commercial Mortgage Corp has established itself as a leader in the Pacific Northwest in direct commercial real estate lending. Its conservative values and commitment to service have created a long-standing reputation from which Fairway America now expands.
John Brooke received his B.S. and M.A. from Stanford University. He is the former President/Owner of Intercoastal Manufacturing Company and Pacific Rim and Trim International, Inc. His successful track record of developing growth companies will directly benefit Fairway and its plans for future growth.
"John brings a skill-set to our organization that is complimentary to my own which will enable us to experience the expansion we are looking to achieve. I am thrilled to have him," says Matt Burk.
Burk and Brooke have known each other for many years through the Portland Chapter of Entrepreneurs' Organization (E.O.), and more recently, Brooke has participated as a private investor in Fairway Commercial Mortgage.
Fairway America, LLC will continue to provide quality private money commercial real estate loans, underwriting and closing its own loans, and managing and servicing the majority of its loans in-house on behalf of its investors.
