I’m Philip Lucrezia, a retired real estate attorney, licensed home builder, and mortgage broker with over 17 years of experience in the real estate and finance industry. Since 2017, I’ve been helping clients secure smart mortgage solutions. At Go Rascal, we offer custom-fit loan products for every type of borrower.

With deep roots in New York and New Jersey, I’ve built a reputation for creative financing strategies and a relentless commitment to service. My team serves a diverse client base and communicates fluently in Spanish and Polish. We specialize in complex deal structures that many other lenders can’t handle.

We are built on transparency, discipline, efficiency, and results. We run lean, move fast, and stay focused on creating wins for clients and referral partners. I’m looking to grow the team with professionals who are hungry to learn, eager to perform, and driven by purpose.

If you’re someone who thrives in a high-performance, high-impact environment, I’d love to connect.
