2023 Ones to Watch Rising Stars: Brian Anderson, Progress Capital

Brian Anderson
Managing Director
Progress Capital

Number of years at firm: 4

One thing on my bucket list: As an avid golfer, playing Augusta National is at the top of my bucket list.

When I am not working, I am: either spending time with my family and making memories with my 15-month old son, Charlie, playing golf or fishing.

What recent project, transaction or accomplishment are you most proud of? My most notable transaction took place in January of this year, when I closed a loan that was purchased through TenX. The property is in Southern, NJ and had considerable environmental concerns. In the end, I arranged a loan for my client at a 4.85% rate and managed to close within the 60-day TOE closing time frame imposed by TenX. Coming through for my client is what’s important to me.

What makes this nominee a RISING STAR? 
“Brian Anderson is focused on making a positive impact within the CRE mortgage industry which includes advising his clients on how to successfully navigate the lending process. Brian sets a high standard for himself as it relates to honesty, patience and advocating 100% for his clients. This work ethic has produced significant results within a short period, earning him recognition as a trusted commercial loan advisor who knows how to get his clients to the closing table.” - Brad Domenico, Partner at Progress Capital
