Colt Investments was founded in Asheville, North Carolina, where the Blue Ridge granite meets American mechanical exactness. We carry the legacy of the Colt name — capital engineered to function without hesitation when it matters most.
We are a direct lender, not a broker. When you work with Colt, you work directly with the team that reviews your file, makes the decision, and funds your business. No middlemen, no handoffs, no noise.
Our team is led by Derek, who built Colt on a simple belief: business owners deserve a partner who moves with them — measured, reliable, and decisive.
Every term, every decision engineered with mechanical exactness. Nothing wasted, nothing left to chance.
Capital designed to withstand the toughest conditions — like the mountains we call home.
Direct, honest, and reliable. We say what we mean and we fund what we promise.
We build lasting relationships with owners who value engineered restraint and quiet confidence.
Derek leads Colt Investments with a steady hand and a builder's mindset. He founded the firm to give business owners a direct, dependable source of capital — forged in the mountains, proven nationwide.
