Testimonials
“Shirley and Diamond, thanks for all your help on this transaction. You are true professionals.”
– Tom MacPherson, Summit Acqusitions Group
“Working with Diamond Financial was a real pleasure, from the initial phone call with Steve Mariani and Mihir Patel through the close of escrow. Diamond Financial quickly vetted the opportunity, found a qualified SBA lender and then shepherded me through the entire process. I cannot recommend highly enough this fine institution that truly embodies the moniker, “Easy SBA.” I look forward to working with Diamond Financial again in the future on another business acquisition!”
