About BuilderRates
Our mission
Lazarus LLC (“BuilderRates”) was formed to help serious real estate investors spend less time chasing capital and more time executing deals. We operate an introduction and marketing platform that connects borrowers and sponsors with institutional lenders and specialized programs suited to construction, bridge, rental, and portfolio strategies.
We are compensated by lending and referral partners when we deliver qualified opportunities—we do not charge borrowers a separate placement fee for our core matchmaking service. Our incentives are aligned with surfacing durable financing options, not padding margin on a single product.
Where we operate
Our team works with investors and properties across the United States, subject to lender geography and eligibility. Our principal office is in Sheridan, Wyoming; lender partners may operate under their own licenses and credit policies.
Leadership
BuilderRates is led by its co-founders.
Patrizio Murdocca
Co-founder
Patrizio is a Middle Tennessee–based real estate developer and agent with experience across residential and investment-oriented projects in the Nashville market. He focuses on how capital structure shows up in real deals and helps steer BuilderRates’ borrower education and lender introductions.
Andrew Elsakr
Co-founder
Andrew is a Nashville-based entrepreneur (Vanderbilt University). He co-founded Lyne.ai (acquired in 2023), builds research and outbound systems for B2B teams through companies including IntentSignal, and leads product and technology for the BuilderRates platform.
