Muletown Loan Inquiry Form
Interested in a loan with us? Please fill out this simple form to give us a head start on your loan request.
who we are. how we started.
Our team started doing private money loans in 2008 when conventional banks with a ‘liquidity crisis’ significantly reduced the availability of funding to real estate investors. While market conditions have changed since then (and will continue to change again), we continue to help real estate investors by providing capital through our specialized team.
Muletown is a nickname for the self-proclaimed ‘mule capital of the world,’ Columbia, TN. We have had a significant lending presence in Columbia, and continue to have a number of loans and properties there.
Although our name is inspired by Columbia, we continue to serve the Colorado and Tennessee markets while also offering loans in other specific markets as well.
Our small team is dedicated to making sure every detail is done right and that each client is well taken care of. Here are the faces behind the services you receive with us.
About our team.

CEO
Dan MacLeay, owner and founder of Muletown Funding, has over 20 years of experience in the mortgage business. In 2008, he saw the growing need for private capital in the real estate space and took the leap then to start what is now know as Muletown Funding.
Dan is originally from the midwest, and moved to the mountains of Colorado nearly 20 years ago. Dan and his wife have 5 kids and live in the greater Denver area.
Aside from real estate investing and running Muletown Funding, Dan enjoys playing golf and spending time in the mountains.

Michaela Potterbaum is the newest addition to our Muletown team (based in Nashville, TN). With over 18 years of experience in business development and entrepreneurship, Michaela has led business teams across the U.S. and Europe. In 2022, she transitioned full-time into real estate investing, focusing on purchasing and renovating rental properties in Tennessee and Florida with the help of Muletown Funding.
Having been on the borrower side for her own investment projects, Michaela understands the demands that investment projects can so often come with. With this in mind, she looks forward to building lasting relationships with our borrowers and providing real, on-the-ground support for all deals in Tennessee as Muletown's TN representative.
In her spare time, Michaela enjoys traveling, having ventured to 40 countries and 49 states (calling Norway home for about 4 years). Fun fact: Michaela used to tour as a professional drummer before diving into the business world.
