Family-owned and operated for over 50 years

Rok Lending is a family-operated and family-funded licensed private lender in Downtown Miami. The combination of experienced underwriting, self-funding, and in-house legal counsel creates the ability to close the biggest of loans in days, not weeks. Furthermore, not having to rely on institutional funds gives Rok Lending the opportunity to offer creative solutions to borrowers to fit their ideal wants and needs. 

With over 50 years of real estate acquisitions, management, development, and lending experience, the Rok Family has maintained a flawless reputation. 
Some of the notable family accomplishments range from being the major stockholder of a local community bank for over 20 years, one of the biggest landlords in Downtown Miami since the 1980's and having purchased over $500 million of distressed debt from 2008 to 2013.

Rok Lending's knowledge and experience in the industry plus the attentiveness to each and every deal is what makes us a unique industry-leading private lender.

"I was amazed by the quality of our experience. In the lending and development worlds there is a genuine lack of the personal touch that we found at Rok Lending. It truly felt like they were there with us every step of the way."
