About Will Harvey III Will Harvey III began his real estate career in 2015 as an award-winning residential loan officer. After acquiring several residential rental properties and running a house flipping company, he realized he preferred the finance side of the industry over the day-to-day operations of being a landlord. This realization led him to invest heavily in private syndications as both a limited and general partner, eventually participating in boutique hotel and wedding venue investments. Today, Will manages multiple funds, including a dedicated hard-money fund focused heavily on the Richmond area. His approach to lending is deeply relationship-driven and asset-based, focusing heavily on a borrower's competence and exit strategy rather than just the appraisal. Will is committed to shared success and personally invests alongside his partners in every venture. He is also actively exploring the purchase of discounted seller-financed notes. Originally from Haymarket, Virginia, Will navigated a non-traditional educational path as a double college dropout before finding his passion in real estate finance. Connect with Will
