"SEED was an intricate part to making my dreams a reality. It was always a dream since I started my law practice in my hometown to own the building I was renting from. At first it seemed a daunting task. With SEED's help I was able to move forward to purchase my building on Main Street and achieve the next level of my dreams for myself and my family. Angie was knowledgeable, professional, and super helpful through the process. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!"

"We are very thankful for SEED helping us purchase the building and equipment for our new restaurant. We started the process of looking for a new location in early 2020, but then the pandemic hit the country, and while we had strong business plans, many lenders turned us down because of the effects of COVID on our industry. Right before giving up on pursuing our dream, we were referred to SEED. We worked with their great team, and were able to get our business up and running in few months! Thank you SEED!"
Hicham and Claribeth Imrane, Co-owners
