The weirdest thing I saw at a strip mall in Phoenix
Was driving through Phoenix last month and stopped at this strip mall for coffee. Saw a small CRE office wedged between a vape shop and a taqueria. Sign said "Hard Money Loans - Fast Closings." The guy inside had a gold chain and a cardboard desk. He offered me a loan on the spot just for walking in. No paperwork no credit check nothing. Said he could fund any deal in 48 hours. I just laughed and walked out. Called a buddy in Phoenix who said that guy has been investigated three times. Has anyone else run into these shady storefront lenders in random plazas?

48 hours is probably 48 hours for him to skip town.

Oh man, that's wild! A cardboard desk and a gold chain? That's practically a cardboard cutout of a scammer. I bet his "fast closing" is just him locking the door behind you.
