About Us
We’re Not Just Real Estate Investors — We’re Transactioneers.
At Tier 1 Property Solutions, LLC, we pride ourselves on doing real estate differently. We’re a team of seasoned transactioneers — strategic problem-solvers who specialize in turning challenges into opportunities using creative finance solutions. Whether you're a homeowner facing a tough situation, an investor looking to grow your portfolio, or someone who's been told “no” by traditional lenders, we’re here to say: Yes, there’s a way.
We don’t just follow the traditional playbook; we rewrite it. Our team thrives on thinking differently, acting boldly, and crafting solutions!
We believe every property tells a story — and our job is to rewrite the ending for the better.
What Sets Us Apart
Creative Finance Experts – We specialize in non-traditional solutions that work where banks and brokers fall short.
Client-Centered Approach – Every situation is different. We take the time to listen, assess, and craft tailored strategies that work.
Deal Architects – We don’t chase deals. We structure them — with precision, transparency, and innovation.
Results-Driven – Our goal is not just to close transactions, but to create win-win outcomes that stand the test of time.
Who We Serve
Homeowners navigating pre-foreclosure, probate, divorce, or other difficult transitions.
Investors looking for high-return opportunities without the headache.
