Commercial Mortgage Company

          -- Finding Funds in a Difficult Climate --

IRVINE, California and DENVER, Colorado, August 27, 2007 - Hunter Wise Financial Group, LLC, is pleased to announce that it has facilitated the placement of a new, $200 million senior line of credit for Commercial Capital, Inc., Denver Colorado, a privately held commercial mortgage banking and capital partnering company which specializes in short-term commercial real estate lending.
"This is a very large transaction accomplished at a time when the mortgage industry is unfortunately in the doldrums," said Fred Jager, President, Hunter Wise Financial Group, LLC.. "Despite this difficult climate, we are pleased to find the funds to be loaned to this excellent commercial credit company."

"With our new lending capacity, we are now one of the leading private lenders in the Rocky Mountain region. We are looking to expand our operations in the region and nationally."
