This guy is a complete scam and a waste of time. I own a small business and came across Alan's site one day while doing a search for SBA brokers. I sent him an email inquiring about his services and he quickly got back to me via phone. We discussed my business, I informed Alan about everything and he assured me that he would be able to help. That should have been my first clue. There were in in-depth questions to find out about how we were structured, our finances or anything. I did ask for references and he supplied a local restaurant which will go unnamed. I spoke to the restaurant owner and said he had been doing business with Alan for years. Again didn't give any details just that he had worked with him for many years. So i decided to give Alan a shot, he told me it would be $2,000 to submit the loan package to his network of banks, $1,000 would be done now and the other $1,000 after the loan funded. If he wasn't able to find anything for us a FULL refund would be given. Again a red flag, but based off the recommendation of the restaurant owner I rolled the dice. Alan sent over a basic SBA loan app and walked me through what sections to fill out. This was Jun 2016. Months of back and forth went by him saying he submitted but never showing us any proof. Never saying we got denied just saying a few banks are loooking at the file. He became almost impossible to reach after about 4 months of stalling me. I was finally able to get him on the phone mid Dec2016. I informed him that if we didnt have anything submitted by Jan 1st 2017 that we would be asking for a full refund. He agreed and said we would have something in the pipeline for sure by then. I never heard from Alan again. Multiple calls and emails go unanswered. Needless to say, I never got the $1,000 back, chalk it up to a lessoned learned. STAY AWAY from this guy as he is a COMPLETE SCAM. This is a warning for everyone DO NOT do business with this guy. He will take your money and run!!
