4Ever Lending USA Trustee Level


Behnood “Ben” Dalaei is the Founder and CEO of 4Ever Lending USA, a boutique mortgage brokerage specialized in rescue loans. With more than a decade of experience in the financial and real estate sectors, Behnood has built a reputation for integrity, compassion and results-driven leadership.

Driven by a deep understanding of the challenges that homebuyers face, he founded 4Ever Lending USA with the mission of making mortgage lending more transparent, personalized and creative. Under his leadership, the firm has expanded across multiple states, offering a wide range of loan solutions from governmental loans, to non-qualified mortgage, hard money lending and business financing specifically tailored to each client’s unique needs.

While many mortgage brokers shy away from “first-timers,” Dalaei welcomes the opportunity to work with first-time homebuyers, first-time investors and first-time builders — offering customized solutions designed to help them succeed, with no experience required.

Dalaei is known for stepping in when others step back, often assisting clients in complex or time-sensitive situations, essentially, earning him the nickname of “The Mortgage Rescuer.” His client-first approach and emphasis on his 10-year plus experience have made him a trusted advocate for buyers, builders and investors alike.

Dalaei joined Riverwalk Fort Lauderdale to support its mission of enhancing and growing the city’s community. As a passionate entrepreneur and resident, he sees Riverwalk as a vital space for connection, growth and opportunity — values that align with both his business and personal philosophy.
