The Alera Difference

Alera Financial was started in 1996 in Raleigh, North Carolina. Since that time, we have closed over $3 billion in loan across 15 states. We also have an understanding and appreciation of real estate needs. Our company was built along with the 4th largest Coldwell Banker Real Estate franchise in the country.

Operationally, we pride ourselves on being a Correspondent Lender, which means we are in total control of the loan process from start to finish. We use our own money to make your loan. We alone make the final decision, and this means fast turn times, flexible underwriting and customer service driven experiences. With our team of processing, underwriting, funding, and closing staff centralized at our corporate headquarters, the loan process is streamlined even further.

Finally, our affiliation with Alera Software has helped us develop technology that is not only extremely user-friendly and simple to use, but most importantly, RESPA compliant.
