"Now, just short of five years later, I'm looking forward to stepping back into this role to better serve our customers and partners moving forward, no matter what the future holds."

This breadth of experience has only added to Yanoti's knowledge of the industry, which he will once again put into practice to ensure AFR continues to fill in the market's gaps and support the underserved by offering a variety of financing options for eligible borrowers.

"We are so excited to welcome back Tim to support AFR's bright future, knowing that he embodies everything we stand for and has a proven track record of success to push us that extra mile," said Richard Dubnoff, CEO of American Financial Resources, Inc. "As someone who has been an AFR partner for almost a decade, we're confident Tim will jump right back into this role and further our growth as we continue to expand our product offerings."
