Santa Barbara Commercial Fund, Santa Barbara, CA

Ken Jacobsen has helped finance multiple projects for myself and my partners over the past 20 years. Ken’s skill and experience in real estate and banking in our community is complete and extensive. He is forthright, trustworthy and has a creative/client focused approach. Both my wife and I have invested in the Santa Barbara Commercial Fund. We like our one on one, personal interactions. Our investments are managed with care and our returns have been excellent.

SBCF, thanks to Broker Ken Jacobsen, practices lending with a human touch. While banks continue to be uneasy thanks to the ongoing pandemic, Ken and his team have taken the time to get to know us and our project, and as a result, share our excitement about the opportunity. And since our project is more complex than some (phased commercial development starting with land acquisition followed shortly after by construction and eventually to debt consolidation), we have been especially appreciative of Ken's collaborative approach to bring this longterm plan to fruition. We've funded several projects across many businesses over the years. It's a pleasure to work with someone that emphasizes the human side of business.

Ken and his team at SBCF make the borrowing process as easy as possible. From initial consultation to closing, they really make the process a positive one. I would highly recommend SBCF for any unique borrowing needs, as they are able to serve a niche that banks typically don't handle in the current lending environment.

Ken Jacobsen jumped into our loan for a house in Summerland and his work was awesome, and more importantly, really quick. A great guy and a "Can Do" person. Thanks Ken. Be good, Bill Champlin
