May 31, 2019Buying And Reselling Tapes At A Profit
It’s very easy to look at a big tape and see big ROI numbers and think, “This one is great.

May 14, 2019The Dos And Donts Of Selling Notes And Assets
Selling notes and assets can be a tedious task. There are steps that need to be done when selling a note, REO, or CFD. This includes shutting down the insurance as soon as possible. It is also necessary to have utilities changed into the new owner’s name and that instructions are clearly delivered to from the sellers. Chris and Gail discuss the paperwork one has to deal with when selling notes and assets with all the different forms that vary between states. They also tackle how dealing with bank underwriters is a part of the steps in selling, and why any sale that does not push through can be considered an opportunity rather than a disaster.
