The Montegra Team

Montegra Capital Resources, LTD has funded private capital commercial loans for 48 consecutive years.  It is the oldest hard money lender in Colorado. Montegra was founded in 1971 by Bob Amter who continues to manage it today with the same 5 core values that he has always offered:  Speed – Flexibility – Fair Pricing – Minimal Red Tape and No Surprises.

Robert J. Amter
Robert J. AmterPresident and Founder
Robert (Bob) Amter is the President and founder of Montegra Capital Resources, LTD. He is a third generation Colorado native and grew up in Denver. A graduate of Middlebury College in Vermont, Mr. Amter also received a M.A. from the University of Colorado in Boulder. He founded Montegra with his father in 1971 and has owned and operated it ever since. Mr. Amter is recognized as one of the most experienced and respected private capital lenders in the country.

Prior to starting Montegra, Mr. Amter was part of an investment group that purchased and operated apartment houses and other commercial properties. Having experienced the lack of flexibility between commercial real estate lenders and borrowers firsthand, he founded Montegra so that he could offer commercial real estate owners and investors the type of private lending opportunities were clearly needed but not available at that time.

Mr. Amter has served on many non-profit organization Boards including the Board of Colorado Academy. His interests include the study of philosophy and travel.
