Dave and Aakash were thorough in sourcing multiple financing options for our new construction project with Choice Hotels. Despite the challenges we encountered, they consistently found viable solutions. Although we ultimately had to abandon the project due to feasibility concerns, we look forward to working with them again in the future and highly recommend their loan services to our family and friends.

Our experience with Pineapple Capital Group, particularly working with Dave & Aakash was outstanding. They helped us secure financing for our Red Roof hotel with an SBA loan. Dave's expertise in underwriting, attention to detail, and ability to communicate with lenders made the entire process seamless. He kept all parties aligned and ensured everything stayed on track, even in challenging moments. We couldn't have asked for a more professional and efficient service. Pineapple Capital Group is our go-to partner for future investments!

Dave and Aakash provided exceptional service in securing a fixed-rate refinancing option for our hotel. We were highly impressed with their thorough execution, which included seamless coordination with the bank, appraisal management, and comprehensive due diligence throughout the approval process. Their expertise helped us avoid a prepayment penalty with our previous lender and significantly reduced our property insurance costs with the new refinancing. We highly recommend them for any financing needs.

They communicated professionally and efficiently, making the entire process of securing a very competitive loan for multiple properties seamless. Their expertise and dedication were evident in how they handled every detail, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. They not only want what is best for the deal, they will go out of their benefit to ensure their client is happy with the terms even if it means losing the money on their end, they will not think twice.
