Olaf LLC is an operator-led firm. We advise and build AI for small and mid-sized businesses, finance real estate for investors, and connect the right people and capital to opportunities that move. One partner, from idea to execution to funding.
Advisory and capital under one roof — so the strategy, the build, and the funding all come from the same partner who has skin in the outcome.
Strategy and hands-on builds that put AI to work in your business — plus the go-to-market and operations consulting to make it stick.
Financing for investors and borrowers the banks turn away — fast, flexible, and structured around the deal.
An operator-run vehicle for acquiring, repositioning, and exiting real estate — with a focus on distressed and value-add opportunities.
We assemble the people and money behind a deal — connecting founders and sponsors with the investors, lenders, and operators who can move it forward.
The last six months have been hands-on: standing up real companies on AI, not slideware. That's the playbook I bring to yours.
Stood up a non-QM wholesale mortgage operation end to end — systems, workflows, marketing, and custom tooling — with AI woven through all of it.
Helping a growing security-services company build and manage its day-to-day operations with AI at the core.
Bringing the same approach to real estate fund operations, deal analysis, and capital strategy.
For more than 25 years I've worked in mortgage lending and executive leadership in Hawaii — delivering operational scale and high-touch structuring for the nuanced borrower scenarios unique to the islands.
Since founding my advisory firm in 2020, the focus has widened beyond traditional lending. I advise non-QM and wholesale mortgage companies on national growth, sales structure, recruiting, and scalable operations; originate residential loans through a licensed relationship with HomeMac Mortgage; and structure select hard money and commercial transactions. I also partner with investors in distressed real estate — capital alignment, stabilization, repositioning, and disposition — and helped establish a private investment vehicle focused on distressed real estate and specialty finance.
Across every venture the objective is the same: align capital, strategy, and execution to produce durable results. If you're looking for a strategic mortgage advisor, a capital partner, or a thoughtful operator focused on disciplined growth, I welcome the conversation.
A no-pressure call to understand the goal — a business to transform, a property to finance, or capital to find.
We come back with a clear, practical plan and the right structure — advisory, financing, or both.
We build, fund, and connect — and stay in it until the outcome is real, not just recommended.
Tell us what you're working on. The first conversation is free, and you'll leave it with a clear next step.
Whether it's AI, a loan, an investment, or an introduction — reach out and we'll point you to the right next step.
