“I've bought and sold many hotels in my 70-year lifetime. The last hotel transaction with Amber Hotel Company went very smoothly. Amber took complete control and handled every aspect of the transaction. I was in a 1031 exchange and Amber found a property for me and arranged a bridge loan on the property until my SBA loan funded. We closed escrow one day before my exchange expired. If it weren't for Amber, I would be paying a large sum in taxes. Amber is of the utmost character and honesty.” — William Kornbluth
