The Principles of Fundability with Merrill Chandler

Over 25 years ago, Merrill Chandler—A personal and business credit pioneer and co-founder of Lexington Law Firm—became dissatisfied with the ineffective results of credit repair. Leveraging his extensive knowledge of borrower behavior profiles, FICOⓇ scoring metrics, and lender underwriting requirements, he developed a process that could ‘optimize’ a consumer’s borrower behavior and improve a borrower’s “Fundability”. He founded GetFundable.com to deliver this revolutionary technology to real estate investors, business owners, and entrepreneurs nationwide. Merrill has helped thousands of borrowers become more Fundable and help them access the capital they need to fulfill their financial dreams.

Tweetable Quotes:

“I would rather support a client to slowly grow their credit line. Because the very thing that lenders look at, is the very skillset to invest intelligently with a little bit. Allowing the lender to give you more money, but you also improve your skill set at investing.” - Merrill Chandler

 

As a customer service representative, you verify until you get the same answer three times.” - Merrill Chandler
