Eddie Luhrassebi
Founder & CEO, Evoque Lending · CA DRE #01230650 · NMLS #337071
Eddie Luhrassebi is the founder and chief executive of Evoque Lending and the designated broker-officer of Loancutters, Inc. He holds a California Department of Real Estate broker license and has built the firm around a simple conviction: most loans fail not because the borrower is weak, but because the financing was never structured around the actual transaction.
Under his direction, Evoque operates across residential, alternative, private-money, commercial, and construction financing. Eddie remains directly involved in the firm's more complex transactions: business-purpose private lending, commercial acquisitions, construction projects, and files where the timeline or the documentation does not fit a standard guideline.
Areas of focus
Eddie's work concentrates where structuring judgment decides the outcome: ground-up construction and development financing, bridge and time-sensitive closings, completion and workout scenarios on projects that have run into mid-course trouble, and structured capital across the stack: mezzanine, preferred equity, and recapitalizations. He is directly involved in the platform's complex and deadline-driven files as a matter of practice, not exception: the files where a structural decision made early is the difference between a project that closes and one that circles.
That involvement reflects the conviction the firm was built on: loans fail when the financing is not structured around the actual transaction. The bio above carries the background; the shortest accurate summary is decades of private money, bridge, commercial, and construction financing, applied one file at a time.
He serves as the firm's designated broker-officer and is licensed individually: NMLS #337071 (search the number on NMLS Consumer Access) and California DRE #01230650. Firm licensing appears on the licensing and disclosures page.
The fastest way to put a project in front of him is a project review with the budget, the stage, and the deadline stated plainly.
