The World’s Most Globally Connected Real Estate Bridge Lender: From $112M Thailand Hotels to Beverly Hills Estates
Based in Singapore, the financial capital of Asia, we deploy onshore and offshore capital across six continents to deliver asset-backed real estate bridge loans that no bank, and no domestic lender, can replicate.
There is a category of real estate financing that the world’s largest banks cannot deliver. The transaction is too fast. The borrower is too international. The asset is in the wrong jurisdiction. The wealth structure is too complex. The documentation the bank requires does not exist, because the client’s wealth was never structured to produce it.
This is not a niche problem. It is the defining financing challenge of global wealth management in the 21st century. And it is precisely the problem that Global Mortgage Group (GMG) and its US subsidiary America Mortgages were built to solve, at scale, at speed, and across geographies that no single-country lender could reach.
From our headquarters in Singapore, the financial capital of Asia, the city where private banks, family offices, sovereign wealth structures, and institutional capital converge in a single regulated ecosystem, we have built the world’s most globally connected real estate bridge lending platform. And we have the closed transactions to prove it.

$112 Million Bridge Loan — Hotel Portfolio, Thailand
Landmark Transaction · Southeast Asia
Global Mortgage Group recently closed one of the largest cross-border real estate bridge loans in Southeast Asian market history: a $112 million facility secured against a group of hotel assets in Thailand. This transaction represents everything that makes GMG unique in the global bridge lending market.
The deal required a lender with the capital depth to fund at this scale without domestic institutional constraints, the cross-border expertise to navigate Thai corporate and legal structures, the hospitality asset underwriting capability that most residential-focused bridge lenders lack, and the Singapore-based network to access the offshore capital pools that made competitive pricing possible at this transaction size.
GMG delivered. The $112 million Thailand hotel portfolio bridge loan stands as a landmark demonstration of global bridge lending capability — and as proof that GMG’s reach extends far beyond the US residential market into global commercial, hospitality, and institutional-scale transactions.
Loan Details:
- Loan Amount: $112,000,000
- Asset Class: Hotel Portfolio
- Market: Thailand
- Structure: Cross-Border
“Regardless if you’re in the US, Singapore, Hong Kong, HCMC, or Phnom Penh, America Mortgages Bridge is a viable short-term financing option to assets you may own globally and wish to keep but have a short-term liquidity issue. In most cases, we take a loan from application to funding in a matter of 10 days.”
— Robert Chadwick, CEO, America Mortgages & Global Mortgage Group
Why Singapore: The Capital Advantage That Defines GMG
Every conversation about Global Mortgage Group eventually returns to one defining fact: we are headquartered in Singapore. This is not a detail, it is the structural source of every competitive advantage we hold.
Singapore is the financial capital of Asia. It is home to over 1,500 registered family offices, dozens of the world’s leading private banks, major sovereign wealth fund operations, and a highly sophisticated institutional lending market. The city sits at the intersection of Asian wealth creation, Chinese, Indian, Southeast Asian, and increasingly Middle Eastern, and globally diversified real estate investment.
GMG’s position at the centre of this ecosystem means we maintain direct, active capital relationships that no US-based lender has ever built. Asian institutional capital pools. Offshore private lending funds structured through Singapore. European private bank relationships. All accessed simultaneously for any given transaction, with the coordination complexity handled by GMG, not the client.
The result is a multi-source capital model that delivers genuine market competition for every dollar we deploy. When we fund a bridge loan, whether in Los Angeles, Manhattan, Miami, Singapore, Bangkok, or London, the pricing reflects competition across multiple global capital pools, not the margin floor of a single domestic fund.
“When certainty, speed, and execution are non-negotiable — our team delivers outcomes that traditional banks and conventional mortgage lenders simply cannot match. Global wealth requires global solutions.”
— Robert Chadwick, CEO, America Mortgages & Global Mortgage Group
