Overview
Plum Lending is a fintech direct lender focused on the middle-market commercial real estate (CRE) sector. It provides structured finance solutions including long-term fixed-rate financing for stabilized properties and short-term bridge loans, with loan sizes from about $1 million to over $100 million. Plum uses data science combined with financial expertise to streamline underwriting and offer a broader range of financing options with more transparency and advisory support, aiming to improve efficiency in CRE lending. Unlike traditional CRE lenders, Plum blends data intelligence with tailored advisory services to speed up decisions and tailor terms to high-quality borrowers, challenging opaque, paper-heavy processes. The company’s goal is to modernize CRE lending by making the process more efficient and transparent for investors and borrowers.
