Seller Financing - The Right Time, 
                      The Best Opportunity!

Subprime crisis, mortgage meltdown, record foreclosures. You’ve heard it all, and you know it’s only going to get worse. But there’s a silver lining, an opportunity that real estate investors can turn into gold. It's the growing market of seller financing.
 
Seller financing is filling the void created by the decline in mortgage lending. Unable to find qualified buyers, sellers are increasingly carrying loans themselves. This creates a huge inventory of seller-financed notes that are ripe for investor picking. Whether brokering notes, creating notes on your own properties, or investing in notes, the “note pro” can pocket a significant profit from every transaction. 


Eddie’s lively presentation at the General Meeting on November 5th will reveal how the savvy real estate investor can actually thrive off of the mortgage implosion. You can shift gears into a new career or supplement your current business with the lucrative opportunities in seller financing. Eddie will show you how.

W. Eddie Speed is the president of Colonial Funding Group, LLC. As the founder of NoteSchool and author of Streetwise Seller Financing, he is a nationally recognized expert on seller-financed notes.  Eddie has purchased more than 30,000 notes totaling over a half billion dollars in the past 25 years - an industry record.  You can be confident you will be learning from an expert.  

Learn even more at Eddie's all-day Saturday Seminar on November 8 titled Seller Financed Notes: Phenomenal Growth Incredible Opportunity.

Seller Financing to the Rescue! 

How Investors Can Profit from the Emerging Solution to the Real Estate Crisis

As a real estate investor, you know all too well that the mortgage industry is suffering from a major meltdown. Too many institutions have been lending money in a blind, reckless way. Lending institutions are folding, foreclosures are reaching record highs, and subprime lending has caused a catastrophe for property sellers, buyers, and lenders alike.

 
As a result of today’s credit crunch, there’s a limited pool of qualified buyers and a shrinking supply of conventional lending sources. In addition, there’s a growing number of would-be buyers who can no longer obtain conventional loans—and an abundance of properties on the market at low prices.
