I?m extremely disappointed with my experience with Crestmont Capital LLC. I was initially approved for business funding after going through the full application and documentation process. Everything seemed to be moving forward smoothly ? until, without warning, I was suddenly denied based on what they claimed was a personal bankruptcy on my record. This information is 100% incorrect. I have never filed for bankruptcy, and there is no such record associated with my personal credit profile. I even provided s

Very rude and disreputable. Derrick called me and when discussing our current funding options, told me it was impossible for us to have the terms we have with our current lender, he said I had no idea what I was talking about, and in essence calling me a liar. When I tried to tell him he was out of line and that we do in fact have them he demanded to see a copy of our paperwork and when I refused then hung up on me. They have now lost a multi million dollar deal over his attitude and we will never do fundin

Crestmont Capital LLC is a great company to acquire a business loan from. Bruce was responsive and did a great job for our business.

Application proceeded smoothly and they was able to fund us in less than 2 weeks at a very reasonable rate.

We had the pleasure of working with Cresmont Capital LLC and Bruce Larson. Bruce was professional, patient, responsive, and knowledgeable. He made the process easy and stress-free. Thank you so much, Bruce, for all your help.

Wow! This was a wonderful & easy experience! I have had the company for quite some time and never really "needed" to look into working capital. With the addition of several future endeavors/clients, Crestmont Capital was a solid choice. My Advisor, David was the BEST!! Thank you, David! Keep doing what you do and making the magic happen us small businesses!

David Guefen with Crestmont Capital was very instrumental in assisting me to obtain a Business Line of Credit. Great Job!

Very poor customer service. Chris Berman and Derrick Garcia never reach back out after I send them multiple emails. They are very unprofessional and knows nothing but ghosting.

Excellent funding partners. Very knowledgeable concerning loan options. Great consultants to assist in evaluating your needs. I highly recommend Crestmont Capital.

Speed, reliability, flexibility and just simply the best! Crestmont is my go to for all future actions. My company reaches out for solutions for our expansion on a regular basis. Been doing this for over 20 years. This experience has been the best of the best in over 20 years of funding solutions.

Fast processing, offered several options, easy to work with, and they stay in contact to make sure everything is going well.

I had a great experience with Crestmont Capital. The representative was extremely professional and respectful. The loan process is so fast in just two days the money was in my account. I am so thankful that they were able to help me.

Michael and Crestmont were awesome. Quick to fund and painless for a small business like ours. At first I was skeptical as they needed to have view only privileges to our online banking. After working with Bank of America we were able to get that set up and everything was 100% above board. I guess I am getting old and not as trusting as I could be with sensitive information. Overall just a great company to work with!

Great service, David did a great job and got us funded quickly..

Travis was both helpful and very knowledgeable about products that would help my company. He took the time to carefully listen to my financial needs and then offered a few solutions which would best fit my needs. He kept the process smooth and efficient and kept me well informed through the whole process. He made the search for working capital, which has always been difficult, into a pleasant experience.

The process was streamlined and very good communication. I was very pleased with the ease in getting the financing done

They just offered us a 35 cents per dollar loan despite the fed fund rate going down .5 % last week. This company is a loan shark company. They hung up on me when I asked about how they calculated their APR. According to Gab AI, the calculation would be: APR = (0.35 / 1.00) * (0.03447 * 2) = 0.2404, or 24.04%. Therefore, a 35 cents on the dollar fee for a 6-month loan equates to an Annual Percentage Rate (APR) of approximately 24.04%. Isn't that 20% or more over the current rate?

Crestmont Capital has been a lifesaver for our business. The terms and customer service are hands down the best in the industry. I receive calls all the time trying to get us to change but nothing has ever compared!

After seeing their advertising as a financier for the firearms industry, I applied. Within a week they offered me a secured loan at 46% interest... I am a first responder supply store providing ballistic vests, uniforms, firearms, etc for police and emergency services. Then the loan officer says how only a few banks will finance a "gun store" and offers me a $30,000 loan with weekly $2400+ payments for 18 weeks = $43,200. The whole time saying its only because we are in the firearms business. It seems

Their funding filled a late paying costumer for me and filled a gap

The entire process for the loan was seamless. All people involved were friendly, attentive, knowledgeable and able to answer all questions we had right away. We are very excited to work with Crestmont Capital and highly recommend them for all business loan needs.

Simply the Best! From beginning to end we received the best customer service. They walked me through every step, explaining every detail. I would definitely recommend Crestmont Capital to fellow business owners.

Great customer service and quick business funding. Highly recommended.

David was persistent and professional all the way through and helped with a lot of stress associated with borrowing money

David was so great and very personable. He's definitely an asset to this company! I knew my whether I was approved very quickly. It's important for that quick turnaround so that I could explore other options if needed.

Finance answered the phone and I explained that I was calling to get info on financing a new ice vending business and the guy hung up. Wow, ok so I called back, not sure if the same guy answered but I explained that I was just hung up on. You would think anapology would be in order, but nope, he proceeds asking me questions about current business revenue for a business I'm trying to start. Very very rude people but I love when folks show you who they are right from the start. Jerks.

Crestmont Capital has been a great funding company to deal with. They are professional and fast and no waiting around. I recommend any business that needs funds for whatever reason should contact them.

Very professional, concise, with a fast turnaround for my small business.

would highly recommend him to take care of any of your business loan needs. I am more or less a novice toward banking jargon and they needed specific information. The staff was all very helpful and willing to walk me through the process. I am very thankful to the professional demeanor and positive "can do" attitude they show. Thanks Crestmont Capital.

I worked with David, He's Top notch, very up front and fast, so if your looking for fast and professional help call David.

Contacted this company and was sent a link to Fundbox. Not sure why. Was sent a denial from Fundbox because of my credit. Was sent a denial with a credit score of 714. Crestmont claims to help with bad credit. I guess 714 is "bad". I specifically told the person I spoke to I didn't want a hit on my credit. Wouldnt recommend.

Applied thru Blue Vine / Crestmont for my PPP program and they did a fantastic job!! Had previously applied thru BOA, and Blue Vine got approval in 3 hours whereas BOA took 30 days. You get personalized service from this organization that is unmatchable from the big banks. Alan and Alex did a super job and really care about your business. They are always accessible and professional. FIVE PLUS STARS!!!! DR. HERNBERG/TOMORROW'S WELLNESS CENTER

Crestmont Capital was easy to work with and got me an approval very quickly! Dalton was personable and professional!

We are very excited to work with Crestmont Capital and highly recommend. Crestmont helped me a lot. Their staff was so great and very personable. They are definitely an asset to this company!

Amazingly thorough and FAST! Thank you Derrick Gracia and Alan for your help. 10 STARS!

I have tried unsuccessfully to unsubscribe the unwanted emails from coming to me, I have emailed Brian Williams, Director of Lending to remove me from his email list but I still am getting emails and I am offended. I wouldn't do business with this company if it were the last company out there because of their aggressive tactics. I hope that they will stop this soon or will have to take further action.

All of these glowing reviews are completely false/spam. Received an email regarding business capital, out of curiousity did a quick lookup of the company. I came here to find a flood of positive reviews....seemed suspicious. Sure enough...if you click on each of the reviewers listed here, they all have one or two reviews....of the same company(s). 6 or 7 of the reviewers here have also left a 5-star review for a hotel called the Travel Inn in Washington. So all of these people have coincidentally stayed

Their funding filled a late paying customer for me and filled a gap

Don't quite get these glowing reviews. My company received an email that clearly stated we were eligible for an attractive rate for up to $175,000 for a Small Business Line of Credit, but when I called, it was classic bait and switch discussing a rate 1.75% higher than written.

I highly recommend Crestmont Capital. Great funding partners for your all your business needs.

Just got off the phone, well hung up on from one of their reps. Told them we haven?t launched just yet and before I could ask an additional regarding their startup loan, the rep says ?sorry we can?t help you, have a good day?. Hangs up!

I denied there loan bc I found a better one and one of the loan officers kept texting me telling me pretty much that I made a huge mistake for going with a different loan company and non stop messaged me for 20 min. Telling me I need to answer my phone etc I politely asked 4 times to stop messaging and that I was happy with the loan and terms I got from avant. Then he/she text me next time pick up your phone lol very disrespectful and ignorant!

We had a great experience working with Bruce. Literally 2 days from start to funding, even over the Holidays. Thorough and professional from start to finish.

If you need funding for expansion or cash flow purposes Crestmont Capital is fast, easy and reliable. The paperwork is minimal and the staff are articulate and friendly.

So far it has been great! Bruce was very nice and helpful, answering all of my questions. Funding was fast and easy! Happy with the whole experience.

Crestmont has been amazing and has lended three times when I needed it most!

Everything was great fast easy never a problem with helping us out. Thanks to everyone

Prompt professional services, representative highly knowledgeable of what he was capable of.Active listener to client's needs. Timely delivery as promised.

Excellent work from Joe. At all times, he was very responsive to questions and communicating with my sister and I. I definitely will recommend Crestmont Capital to everyone.

Very easy and resonable term. Funded quickly. Highly recoomend

Very efficient process, great reporting, and excellent customer support. Crestmont Capital was easy and timely to deal with.

Unfortunately I tried dealing with Bryce and his communication is lacking. I went a different route for my business funding and no longer need his services. BUT everyday I get bombarded with generic emails , I've tried calling, emailing to ask for the solicitations to stop , but day after day no response. I suggest you Try calling and try every option. No one is home?

Frequently Asked Questions

What qualifications should I look for in a CPA?

Look for a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) license, which ensures they’ve passed rigorous exams and meet state requirements. Check for relevant experience in your industry, additional certifications like CFA or CMA, and membership in professional organizations like the AICPA. Verify their credentials through state licensing boards.

How do I find a CPA in my area?

Use online directories like the AICPA, CPAverify, or state CPA societies. Search platforms like Yelp or Google for local CPAs with reviews. Ask for referrals from business associates, friends, or financial advisors. Local chambers of commerce can also provide recommendations.

What’s the difference between a CPA and an accountant?

A CPA is a licensed professional who has passed the CPA exam and met state requirements for education and experience. An accountant may lack this certification and could have varying levels of expertise. For complex tasks like tax audits or financial reporting, a CPA is typically more qualified.

How do I know if a CPA specializes in my needs?

Ask about their experience with your specific financial needs, such as tax preparation, small business accounting, or estate planning. Review their website or LinkedIn for case studies or client testimonials. Inquire about their client base to ensure they handle similar financial situations.

Should I check a CPA’s reviews before hiring?

Yes, reviews provide insight into a CPA’s reliability, communication, and performance. Check platforms like Google, Yelp, or the Better Business Bureau for client feedback. Look for patterns in reviews, but verify their authenticity, as some may be biased or outdated.

How can I verify a CPA’s license?

Visit your state’s Board of Accountancy website or use CPAverify.org to check a CPA’s license status. Confirm their license is active and check for any disciplinary actions or complaints. This ensures they’re in good standing and meet professional standards.

What questions should I ask during a CPA consultation?

Ask about their experience with your financial needs, fee structure, availability, and communication style. Inquire how they handle tax filings, audits, or financial planning. Ask for references or examples of similar work to assess their expertise and fit.

How much should I expect to pay for a CPA’s services?

Fees vary based on location, services, and complexity. Basic tax preparation may cost $150-$500, while business accounting or audits can range from $1,000 to $10,000+. Request a detailed fee structure upfront and compare quotes from multiple CPAs.

Can I work with a CPA remotely?

Yes, many CPAs offer remote services through secure online platforms for document sharing and virtual consultations. Ensure they use encrypted tools for data security. Remote CPAs can be effective if they understand your local tax laws or business regulations.

How do I assess a CPA’s communication skills?

During consultations, evaluate their ability to explain complex financial concepts clearly. Ask sample questions about taxes or financial strategies and note their responsiveness and clarity. Good communication ensures you understand their advice and fosters a productive relationship.

What red flags should I watch for when screening a CPA?

Beware of CPAs who guarantee specific tax refunds, lack a valid license, or have disciplinary actions on record. Avoid those with poor communication, vague fee structures, or negative reviews highlighting unethical behavior. Always verify their credentials independently.

Should I choose a CPA from a large firm or a solo practitioner?

Large firms offer more resources and specialized teams but may charge higher fees. Solo practitioners often provide personalized service and lower costs but may have limited availability. Choose based on your needs, budget, and preference for personalized attention.

How often should I meet with my CPA?

For individuals, annual meetings for tax preparation may suffice. Businesses may need quarterly or monthly check-ins for bookkeeping, tax planning, or financial reporting. Discuss your needs upfront to establish a meeting schedule that aligns with your financial goals.

Can a CPA help with both personal and business finances?

Yes, many CPAs handle both, but confirm their expertise in both areas. Ask about their experience managing personal taxes and business accounting simultaneously. Ensure they can balance both without compromising attention to your specific financial needs.

What should I do if I’m not satisfied with my CPA?

Discuss concerns directly with your CPA to resolve issues. If unresolved, check your contract for termination terms. Seek a new CPA by researching reviews, credentials, and referrals. Request your financial records to ensure a smooth transition to a new professional.
