Fred Assini
Chief Executive Officer, Alpha Tech Lending
Fred Assini, CEO of Alpha Tech Lending, has reached a significant milestone, celebrating his 37th year in the real estate industry in 2024. Since taking the helm of Alpha Tech Lending in 2019, he has guided the company to become a leading nationwide private asset-based lender. Established in 2007 in the Northeast United States, Alpha Tech Lending has since expanded its operations nationwide, with headquarters in New York and Boca Raton, Florida.
Facilitating Successful Projects
Under his leadership, Fred and his team have strategically grown Alpha Tech Lending by making the lending process less confusing and more prosperous for all involved. His team is dedicated to providing timely feedback, finding the ideal loan for each project, offering transparent terms, and delivering professional support.
Alpha Tech Lending provides various loan programs to suit different needs, including Fix & Flip, New Construction, DSCR 1-4, DSCR 5+, Bridge Loans, and Tru No Doc Loans. The Fix & Flip loans are designed to help investors purchase, renovate, and sell properties for a profit. New Construction Loans offer competitive financing options for real estate investors, builders, and developers to buy land and fund construction projects.
The DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) Loan program is tailored for purchasing or investing in properties, evaluating applicants based on the projected income from rental properties. Specializing in residential, mixed-use, and commercial properties, he ensures Alpha Tech Lending meets diverse client needs, including commercial space financing for offices, retail spaces, warehouses, self-storage, and automotive facilities.
The Bridge Loan Program provides short-term solutions for clients who are in the process of qualifying for traditional financing. In contrast, the Tru No Doc Loan program relies on the property's value as collateral, disregarding the borrower's credit score or financial standing.
Empowering Mortgage Brokers and Consultants
Fred Assini also champions a Registered Broker Partner Program, which allows mortgage brokers and consultants working with real estate investors to expand their businesses through access to Alpha Tech Lending's Fix & Flip and Rental financing options. This program offers competitive compensation and safeguards partners throughout the financing process.
Fred's Real Estate and Financing Experience
Fred's extensive background in real estate financing began with his founding of First Rehab Lending in 2012. This nationwide mortgage business provided short-term commercial loans for acquiring residential properties by speculators and home builders, emphasizing efficient and quick service to foster long-term client relationships and competitive rates.
By age 27, Assini was already leading Franklin First Financial as CEO, growing the startup to be licensed in 40 states and recognized among the top mortgage lenders in the nation by Mortgage Originator magazine. His tenure at Franklin First was marked by diverse lending services, including FHA, VA, Conventional, USDA, and Reverse Mortgage Loans, with over 750 employees and over $10 billion in originations.
Fred's real estate acumen is further enhanced by his experience managing a general contractor company, which gives him unique insights into his clients' needs. Over the years, he has completed nearly 100 fix-and-flip renovations and has been actively involved in numerous real estate and mortgage-related organizations, earning several industry awards.
Proud Sponsor of Local and National Charity Events
Fred Assini is committed to giving back to the community, sponsoring hundreds of local and national charity events such as golf outings and community events, and generous donations to various causes.
Outside of his professional life, Assini enjoys spending time with his family, playing golf, traveling, and maintaining his health and wellness. Born in Brooklyn, New York, Fred is a proud alumnus of Saint John's University, where he earned a degree in finance before embarking on his distinguished career in private lending.
