## About Blaine

Blaine founded his first Texas real estate brokerage in 1998. Nearly three decades of Texas transactions later, there is not much he has not seen on a closing statement, and most of it he has seen in the same small-town and rural markets Cedar Top lends in today.

At Cedar Top he works the deal side. He looks at the property, the numbers, and the exit, then structures a loan that fits your plan. Underwriting happens in-house, so his answer is final: no loan committee, no outside appraisal queue, no waiting on someone in another state.

If you have an unusual property, a tight timeline, or a deal another lender could not get comfortable with, bring it to Blaine first. He likes the fast, out-of-the-ordinary deals best.
