Patch of Land

P atch of Land is a marketplace lender that originates residential and commercial real estate investment loans to meet the growing demand for alternative lending options while supporting its innovative crowdfunding platform. In addition to offering mortgages on non-owned occupied residential and commercial properties, the company allows individual investors the opportunity to achieve attractive yields by purchasing fractional ownership of their loans with a $5,000 investment - or even as little as $1,000 using their automated investing feature, AutoInvest. Real estate lending in the U.S. has traditionally been a slow, inefficient and difficult process with limited opportunities for owners of investment properties to access capital to grow their real estate portfolios. That began to change in the wake of the housing crisis as specialty lenders emerged to meet the needs of real estate investors who sought opportunities to invest in and rebuild the nation’s real estate market post- crash. The alternative-lending industry has transitioned from the days of innovators testing the waters with new technology into a maturing industry accepted by Main Street borrowers and Wall Street investors alike. Patch of Land, which began providing loans in 2013, is dif- ferent from traditional banks and nonbank mortgage lenders in that it uses an advanced online platform and underwriting algorithm to facilitate the lending process. Its online platform provides efficiencies, speed, 24/7 access, transparency and lower costs than traditional “hard money” lenders that typ- ically operate within limited geographies and may not have the resources to leverage technology. The company was co-founded by Jason Fritton, a successful e-commerce entrepreneur, and his brother, Brian. The two had a passion for wanting to help repair communities devastated by

the housing crash. Jason Fritton was an early supporter of crowdfunding capital formation exemptions that would later become a part of the JOBS Act, a 2012 law that gave way to innovative real estate finance organizations. His brother had a vision for how technology could change the real estate market, and to- gether the brothers formed what would become Patch of Land. Patch of Land funds real estate loans based largely on the asset value of the property, therefore experience is more important than a borrower’s FICO score. The benefit of going beyond FICO is that
