South End Capital a division of Stearns Bank, N.A. Reviews 

There's not much to say other than Mike McGee and Sound End Capital are phenomenal. A Funeral Home purchase is virtually impossible to get financing through most lenders, but Mike McGee and SEC's staff never left me with any doubts we'd get it done.

Our business future is bright! So on behave of my family and staff, thank you for all the hard work. If you have a complicated or simple deal stop looking and give SEC a chance.

I'd simple like to say sincerely, Thank You!!

South End Capital and Mike McGee made my dream become a reality.
My Business needed a new location as the property I leased was being sold.
The team at South End Capital made my dream of buying my own property, and construction for the Equestrian Facility for my Business come True!!
Mike McGee was unbelievable in helping me through an overwhelming amount of complications and paperwork to get to the closing, and went above and beyond to help me get this done!!
I owe my business future, secured location and the dream of my own Equestrian Facility to Mike MaGee and the South End Capital Team
THANK YOU!! Mike and South End Capital.

I would like to thank the whole team of South End Capital for helping me make my dream come true. Thanks to all their help I was able to purchase my building to establish a store front that will help my family to have a prosperous future. thanks a million for a job well done.

I worked with Mike McGee to secure an SBA loan. He was committed, helpful, and went the extra mile to help me get what I needed.

Best company ever for financing, I am very happy with their service and work , Mike helped me close a loan that other lenders have rejected he is caring and honest and pushes you to succeed , I highly recommend using South End Capital as your funding partner.

I appreciate the "never give up" attitude that South End Capital approaches all my deals with. They get the job done, and in the end, that's what matters! I especially appreciate the hands on access to their closing department head, Rich Sabrowske, who is absolutely professional in his very timely communication and coordination of all aspects of the process.

I worked with Mike McGee for our funding. It was such a pleasure! He helped me every step with every item that was needed. He has the so much patients especially when you are feeling overwhelmed with all of the paperwork. Thank you so much for everything!

It was a pleasure working with him!

Thorough and diligent. They were in tune with my needs and explored creative solutions for my unique situation. They were completely responsive and proactive throughout.

I would highly recommend all the people who work at Southend.

I have worked with South End Capital over the last few years. They are very knowledgeable, professional, quick to respond, and always make the process of obtaining a loan go as smoothly as possible. Great company to work with.

working with Southend Capital is so easy! I work with Southend Capital on the closing end of things and their dedication and commitment to their clients show. From having your own dedicated consultant that is with you from beginning to end alleviates the confusion of having so many people involved in your closing!

The experience was very good. Thanks

Great products to chose from and easy and painless payment process as well . Email notifications are excellent on referrals that have closed business.

Absolutely awesome team of people to work with. My AVP from the closing division was exceptional. He went way over the call of duty. He guided me and stayed with me from start to finish. If obstacles presented themselves, he pushed, guided, and encouraged me through the process

SECC explained the process and delivered as promised. Staff was very knowledgeable and professional. I am looking forward to the next deal utilizing SECC services and resources. It’s assured they will help me achieve my business and financial goals.

Big thanks to my SECC team as I am now the owner of a very successful company.

I had a client that needed funding for his business , and when he completed the application he gave the values of his equipment that were not the true values as he thought they were. South End Capital Corp had given an approval and then had it declined because of the values. South End Capital Corp went back to work for my client and got the deal approved and funded!

Slow to respond. Charge fee's then pass on to another bank. Can't deliver.

UPDATE: After some communication South End Capital (SEC) was ultimately able to facilitate the loan. This was an SBA Loan and SEC passed to NewTek Capital for packing and funding. At no time in the process did SEC or anyone explain to me why it took 3 companies and $25K in fee's to secure the loan. Ultimately when NewTek Capital failed in their commitments South End Capital jumped in took care of me. Fee's charged by SEC were refunded.

The reason I was unable to give a 5 star is that SEC took on the loan process from Mid-Atlantic Commercial Capital (MACC) and then passed it to Newtek Capital. There was no clear communication or understanding why SEC took on business from MACC just to pass to Newtek. As stated they fought to get me the loan but I just don't understand why they would work with a company like MACC.

I will add that SEC was the best of the 3 companies to work with. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again.

Matt Naughton, Sr. VP Business Lending, is great to work with. He is highly knowledgable about SBA Lending and gives honest, non-biased advise. When speaking with him, there is no hidden agenda. He's a genuine person!!!!! 10 stars for South End Capital, because of Matt!!!

What lender goes above and beyond to help you find a product that will work for your needs? Until now I haven't had that experience. I know my business and South End Capital knows theirs, Dealing with SEC has been a refreshing new take on 'traditional' lending options..There was a void in the lending market, and SEC has filled it.
