Regional Business Development Manager

At Lending One, we don’t just lend capital—we fuel opportunity. Headquartered in sunny Boca Raton, FL, with additional offices in Charlotte, NC and Great Neck, NY, we’ve funded over $7 billion in real estate capital and earned recognition as one of the Sun Sentinel’s Top Workplaces—four years running!

As a direct private lender—not a broker, not a bank—we specialize in business-purpose mortgage loans for real estate investors, including fix-and-flip bridge loans and long-term rental financing.

Our mission is powered by our values:

• Speed & Ease – We simplify lending so clients can move fast and seize opportunities.
• Solutions Driven – We solve problems, not just process paperwork.
• Loyal Partners – We build trust, not just transactions.
• Authentic Experience – We stay real, reliable, and respectful—always.

We’re a fully funded, full-service lending partner—and we’re growing fast.
