Congressional Capital, LLC

With all the new great people joining us recently, I wanted to officially introduce myself! I’m Brian Athey, President of Congressional Capital. I founded this company over a decade ago, and it’s been an incredible journey ever since. ???? My main focus is meeting new borrowers and ensuring our existing clients receive the best service possible. What I love most about being a hard money lender is the opportunity to help people succeed. Over the years, we’ve had countless success stories that I’m genuinely proud to be a part of, from helping first-time flippers to supporting seasoned investors in their ventures, both in business and beyond. My motto is simple: I strive to help as many people as possible achieve success, starting with my kids and extending to everyone I care about. Outside of work, you’ll often find me at sporting events, enjoying live music (I’m a huge Dave Matthews fan) and exploring new places with my kids. Coaching their sports teams is one of my favorite ways to spend time with them. At Congressional Capital, we’re committed to providing personalized lending solutions tailored to your unique needs. We understand that each borrower is different, and we’re here to empower you to achieve your dreams, whether you’re a new investor or an experienced developer. We’re with you every step of the way. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or want to learn more about how we can help you. We’re here to assist you in your success and real estate development journey. ???? #hardmoney #hardmoneymondays #hardmoneyloans #realestateinvesting #realestatedevelopers #realestatedevelopment #dcdevelopment #dcrealestate #dcdevelopers #propertyinvestment
