I have had the pleasure of working with Boris Akbashev for my real estate financing needs on my last 10-15 projects, and I cannot speak highly enough of his professionalism and expertise. Boris demonstrated a deep understanding of the lending process and went above and beyond to ensure I secured the best possible terms.
What stood out the most was his responsiveness and attention to detail. Boris took the time to thoroughly explain each step, answer all my questions, and provide clear guidance, making the entire process smooth and efficient. His commitment to delivering exceptional service is truly unmatched.
I highly recommend Boris Akbashev to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and trustworthy real estate lender. He is an outstanding professional and a true asset to the industry.

Nick Tierno (Vice President, Head of DSCR) handling of this deal has been unacceptable. Weeks of delays, incorrect information, and last-minute changes left us feeling duped.

Completely unprofessional from start to finish. The lack of communication and constant disorganization made this experience a nightmare. It's clear they don't value their clients or respect their time. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.

We were promised the deal would proceed, but Nick Tierno (Vice President, Head of DSCR) added unnecessary steps at the last moment. Extremely unprofessional and poorly managed.

Had an appraisal completed on a house. Came in 30k lower than the other TWO appraisals completed. Unfortunately, they didn’t care and stuck by their person although it was completely unjustified. Compared my completely remodeled house (roof, electrical, heating, and water) to an outdated house recently sold. Stated my upgrades didn’t matter and they will stick by their guy. Completely my blowing experience and a waste of time. Do not recommend them! The only reason I didn’t use my original lender is they don’t lend under 125k and this house is in a lower graded area.

I am a broker and have been using them consistently for Debt service and ground up. ABL is great but Cam Mozingo is lights out. Best rep I have worked with, I followed him from his last company and would not work with anyone else.

Truly a pleasure having ABL lending participation on every deal, thanks to their lending expertise and timely support and guidance throughout the process on getting the best loan for my deals; I can see my company growth from 1 to 2 flips to flips, numerous flips and also, new construction and DSCR loans to growth the rental portfolio. Thanks Kevin @ ABL team.

I started working with ABL in 2021. They have funded over 7 new construction for me. My POC Mailena is very responsive in getting a deal started and closed.
