About Vantage Point Commercial Capital
A commercial financing firm that helps entrepreneurs, business owners, and real estate investors own the property their business runs in and grow through it.

Who builds this firm
Vantage Point Commercial Capital was founded by Paul Neal, its Principal Funding Strategist, to help entrepreneurs, businesses, and real estate investors fund their growth and their ambitions in nontraditional ways. We arrange commercial real estate loans, business acquisition financing, construction and renovation capital, and investment property debt for owners who intend to use property as a tool for building wealth.
Paul took the road less traveled, leaving engineering right out of college to become a serial entrepreneur. He has spent 30 years as an entrepreneur, financial strategist, professional speaker, and executive coach. He had great early successes in the 90s and 2000s, then completely lost his primary business in the Great Recession of 2008, rebounded, and more recently sold another business for a healthy seven-figure sum. He has been on the borrower's side of the table.
That is why the firm focuses on entrepreneurs, investors, and builders: people who use real estate to grow a business or build wealth, and who want straight answers before committing to a property.
Paul is the author of Un-lease Your Business and the host of The Brick & Mortar Money Show, and he speaks and writes on financing, ownership, and building through downturns.

The book
Un-lease Your Business
Unlock wealth, autonomy and control by buying your building and firing your landlord
There is a hidden secret that can amplify and accelerate your business prosperity, and it may be right under your feet: buy the building your business lives in.
Un-lease Your Business is your guide to using that secret, with clear steps and strategies for doing it. It is about unlocking the wealth, autonomy, and control you deserve, and about no longer making your landlord rich with your hard-earned profits.
