About

Builders Capital is proud to have one of the region’s most successful builders on our Founders Team. Mr. Trent was recognized in 2010 by the Puget Sound Business Journal for creating one of the “100 Fastest Growing Private Companies in Washington State.” Mr. Trent, a highly successful entrepreneur, founded SDC Homes at the onset of the “credit crisis” in 2007. Through innovation, experience and sheer determination, Mr. Trent developed a business model that took SDC Homes to one of the top three homebuilders in Washington State by 2010. Resulting from innovation, SDC Homes was extremely profitable, garnering the interest of several national homebuilders. In the spring of 2011, Mr. Trent accepted a bid for his company from a U.S. “Top 10” builder. Mr. Trent has returned to the world of private investment and currently plays a strategic role with Builders Capital.

As the company’s Founder, Curt Altig brings a deep passion for the home building industry to everything he touches at Builders Capital. His two decades as an executive with respected major mortgage bankers prepared him well for the launch of Builders Capital in 2009.

Mr. Altig has assembled and inspired a world class leadership team devoted to helping our home builder clients succeed at every level. His current leadership goals are the deliberate and successful launches in new markets, as well as creating new products and services that can reduce risks and increase profitability of clients in all sectors of home building.

Mr. Altig is a current board member of Liberty Road Foundation and a graduate of the University of Washington.
