Formerly known as LendingHome, Kiavi is committed to helping its customers revitalize the approximately $25 trillion worth of aged U.S. housing stock to provide move-in ready homes and rental housing for millions of Americans across the country. Traditional lenders rely on human decision-makers and paper-based processes. At Kiavi, our modern tech platform removes many traditional barriers, automates time-consuming manual steps and provides quick decisioning and true transparency throughout the entire process. With a wide range of bridge and rental funding options to choose from, Kiavi’s team of experts can create a personalized solution for our customer's investment strategy. Homeownership has always been an important part of American life. But now, just as Millennials are hitting the peak age for buying their first homes, fewer new homes are being built. In fact, today there are 33%1 fewer new homes constructed than just 15 years ago. Over 65 percent of the U.S. housing stock is more than 30 years old and in need of upgrading and renovating. And as the demand for move-in-ready homes continues to grow, residential real estate investors are needed more than ever. Kiavi is committed and proud to support today’s real estate investors in their efforts to revitalize these aged homes and provide move-in-ready homes and rental housing. NMLS ID #1125207.

My first dealing was with Payton. Payton was phenomenal. He was always ready to help and was able to secure a loan for my flip. After Payton came Clay. Clay also was always ready to help me. I have nothing but good things to say about Kiavi and Payton and Clay.

I'm simply going to add the final email of the string and it pretty much explains their lack of common sense, customer service, or anything resembling a desire to help their clients. They chose not to take their fee out of the funds they had that were due to me even though the amounts were almost identical. They required me to submit the fee in full, for them to send me nearly the exact amount. Their excuse? the amount will change depending on when its paid. Apparently this finance company was stumped by making that determination of the interest due on the day I authorized the funds to go to that fee. Not a great thing to hear from a company who's whole existence is about calculating interest. ""So you and Kiavi are happy to see this thing fall apart over a $2400 extension fee while you hold $2500 of the hold back funds, which are technically mine already, because of your own technicality and your inability to think rationally. Ok then. Trust Pilot, CFPB, and NMLS will be copied on this email string. Maybe you are technically within your rights, but it's both terrible customer service and wasteful spending, not to mention stupid and I would venture to say cruel. So what happens when you don't get your extension fees by the 20th? I would tell you how I thought the draw would be here by now and enable me to pay the extension fee, but you don't care. I must tell you this treatment borders on abusive and makes me wonder if it's not being done for some other purpose? That is a decision I will leave to the regulatory bodies and the general public. So, I will withdraw my request for an extension and pay the default interest until the property is sold. I will be sending it via US mail daily, Sorry, that's my policy. Thankfully, as you have already mentioned, it means we will not be working together in the future. But, why should I give you a cent more than I have to legally, when you are clearly incapable of rational thought or any level of customer service. It doesn't matter how nicely you tell me to consume human excrement, it all means the same thing. Oh, I also expect my draw to be sent to me immediately as I will be paying interest on it everyday. You really should consider being more like a human being and less like a machine. Your with all due respect, which is no longer much,
