Robert J. Rand, CPA, ChFC, Senior Broker Associate

Throughout history the home has been identified as a sacred place and routinely men and women have overcome adversity to keep it that way. For most of us, our home is a very special place as well, and represents the largest liability we will incur during our lifetime. Bob excels as a home lending professional and his commitment to your home financing is unparalleled.

The principle with which Bob measures his success in the service arena is one that he likes to call the "Wow Factor." His sole objective as a lending professional is to "wow" his clients with unexpected service and professionalism. To understate and out perform is his personal mantra.

This level of commitment has made him a top loan executive in the Bay Area. Whether for a million dollar loan or a government loan for someone's first home, real estate agents, financial planners, business managers and borrowers bring their home financing needs to Bob. They come to him for one main reason... Results.

The loan Process has traditionally been a "seat-of-your-pants" process with very few checks and balances to prevent important issues from slipping through the cracks. With his focus on teamwork, Bob has utilized technology, systems, forms and programs to make the loan process infinitely more efficient than that of traditional lenders.

Away from the office, Bob and his wife Stephanie enjoy skiing, hiking, fishing, golf and a variety of other outdoor activities particularly in and around Ketchum, Idaho. Traveling to foreign destinations is perhaps their favorite mutual pastime and Bob’s post-lending years will undoubtedly include more extensive visits to Italy.

Bob’s educational background is economics, finance and accounting. Beyond his undergraduate studies he has earned an MBA in taxation. His professional designations are Certified Public Accountant and Chartered Financial Consultant. In addition to advising clients on real estate financing he has an active professional practice in tax and financial planning. So for your next real estate finance transaction, call Bob.
