Ethical alternative financing
Alternative financing is here to stay. Let’s use it legally, ethically and intelligently. When someone is investing in real estate notes or choosing seller financing for their property, they are committing to their future success, IF... done properly.
Setting weary landlords free
Learn how you can DO LESS and GET MORE by becoming the bank on your own property. Turn your rental portfolio into a portfolio of strong, safe, secure real estate notes for hassle free income so you can rest, relax and enjoy your life!
Closing real estate transactions without bank financing
You don’t have to wait on an answer from the bank to get what you want. Sellers… get your property in escrow NOW by advertising Owner Will Carry. Buyers… just because you're a gig worker and have self-employment income doesn’t mean you can’t buy the home of your dreams!
Helping sellers create paper worth holding or selling
Sure, owner financing will get your property sold for the highest possible price… but does that really help if you end up with a note that isn't worth the paper it's printed on? Attorneys, agents and title companies can walk you through a seller financed transaction, but unless they regularly buy and sell notes for their own portfolio, they rarely know how to engineer loans that will fetch the highest possible price in the secondary market. Which means you (or your heirs) could end up being blindsided by a tragic discount.

Discover little known strategies that give you the BOFS (Best Opportunity For Success).
Showing average investors how to safely get above-average returns
Investing in real estate notes through your Self-Directed IRA or other qualified account can make all the difference. When you invest in notes the right way, you get safe, secure, hassle-free returns.
Helping real estate professionals succeed
What you don’t know about notes and seller financing is costing you listings, sales and closed escrows, and could possibly get you sued. Agents are increasingly being asked to participate in seller financing transactions, yet few have the expertise to navigate it competently. You need to protect your clients and your license.
Helping CPAs and Attorneys provide excellent service
The Installment Sale can powerfully preserve your clients’ wealth and create cash flow, but the transaction must be engineered intelligently. Request a Professional Note Appraisal on any notes currently held in your client's portfolio.
Getting instant cash to note holders
When you need money, you want to be able to sell your note for minimum discount. You don’t have to sell the whole note! Let's create a custom solution.
As a licensed real estate & seasoned note professional, I am uniquely qualified to help sellers create a note worth holding or selling. It’s possible to create a note that can be sold for little to no discount.
**Information every Attorney, CPA and broker should understand
Have you been thinking about becoming the bank, offering ‘terms’, when you sell your property? Would you rather be a lender than a landlord?
Have you received an offer asking for seller financing and you’re wondering if you should accept it? A Discovery Session might be right for you:
Agents: do you have a listing getting ready to expire? A transaction falling apart? A buyer with a big down payment who can’t qualify? I can help rescue your commission!
Active real estate investors: you’re working hard for your leads. Why toss them if they don’t accept your cash offer? Get terms, get paid twice!
If you have a note for sale, I’d love to talk with you. I specialize in custom options that provide you the most value.
