Our Story

We’ve been in business since June of 1990, when our original company started as Advisor Mortgage Inc. in Arizona. The company was started by Gregg Rahn but was owned by the principal family of a Fortune 500 company. Although we were initially buyers of notes secured by commercial properties or land, we quickly became an Arizona licensed mortgage broker, specializing in facilitating loans secured by borrower assets with ample collateral.

Years later, Advisor Commercial Mortgage LLC, based in Colorado, was created as a commercial, industrial real estate and land loan broker. Subsequent to that, Advisor Commercial Lending became our non-real estate commercial and industrial business line lending operation that specializes in equipment/inventory and A/R loan requests.

Today, although a small group, we have representatives from New England, Arizona, Colorado, Florida and Illinois. ACM continues to maintain a strong relationship with our lenders in several states including multiple banks, institutional lenders and private funding lenders.

Meet the Team

Gregg I Rahn

President
Mr. Rahn has over 45 years’ experience in commercial finance. He began his career in finance shortly after college in Illinois and achieved the position of Schedule Items Manager for one of the largest Arizona financial institutions, at that time, Home Federal Savings and Loan. He oversaw the Secondary Marketing, Collections, Foreclosures, and REO departments, encompassing the company’s portfolio. In 1981, after determining the Savings and Loan industry lacked sustainability, he took a position with a mortgage brokerage firm specializing in commercial lending. In 1990, while living in Arizona, he founded Advisor Mortgage Inc, which was backed by a principal family of a Fortune 500 company.

Advisor Commercial Mortgage LLC, based in Colorado, was created as a commercial real estate mortgage broker. Advisor Commercial Lending was then established to serve as the non real estate commercial and industrial business line lending company in all three of our principal states, Arizona, Colorado, and Illinois. Mr. Rahn and his companies continue to maintain strong relationships in several states as well, with multiple banks and other institutional lenders, along with private funding lenders. Gregg and his wife now reside in a suburb of Chicago.
