port charlotte mortgages: who are these people? - 04/06/12 04:59 AM
okay, I open the website and I see a picture of this gentleman and he looks 40 ish with brown hair and a full brown beard. Attached is a video about material which is company is marketing. I have an interest so I click on the arrow and open the video.
His father is doing the presentation!
You can see the obvious similarities, but dad's probably 20 lbs, at least heavier, with gray hair and a similar gray beard.
I see this ALL the time. People feel that pictures help and/or are necessary in their marketing, but after looking at the … (8 comments)

port charlotte mortgages: all my buyers are cash! Houston, we have a problem...I can't refer any of my clients to you - 03/29/12 02:34 AM
You just don't know how many functions, Realtor Breakfast's, WCR functions, etc, where I hear this all the time
All my buyers pay cash
I admit that there is a great deal of $$$$$ flowing into Southwest Florida, and in spite of the inaccuracies being reported by the national media, there has been for quite awhile.
My first thought when I hear this is that if you want to expand your business, start dealing with those buyers who need to acquire a mortgage.
remember the "DINK's"
double income no kids
they're still out there, they work next to you, and often … (2 comments)

port charlotte mortgages: what's happening in Southwest Florida; where are all those dumptrucks coming from? and did that man just say what I think he did? - 03/25/12 03:11 AM
I was talking with my boss, Joanne, the other day, and I told her that I thought one of the good signs for our market was that there were suddenly dumptrucks everywhere, in some cases blocking or slowing down the traffic. For a mortgage lender dumptrucks are a good sign, because that means people are building things and that's a good sign. The biggest reason to me is that building creates
JOBS!
It is a sign of a return to a healthy economy, a sign that we're
heading in the right direction
I must share with you that it was a little … (7 comments)

port charlotte mortgages: Mortgage Companies/Bankers from the past to.... - 03/25/12 02:40 AM
Way back, many, many years ago I entered into the mortgage business and I started out by working for a mortgage company. Over the 30 plus years that I have been involved in mortgage lending I have worked for several banking institutions, but actually still as a mortgage banker.
I always find it interesting to look back and see how the mortgage companies got started, how they evolved, and where we are now. Here's what I believe to be one of the basic premises as to the birth of the mortgage companies, and let me know if you see some striking similarity … (0 comments)

port charlotte mortgages: I Paid Cash for my home...NOW I'd like some back - 01/19/12 08:39 AM
In Southwest Florida, where I live, for the last 2-3 years at least an extremely large number of sales have been consumated by $$$$$ buyers, much to the delight of the Realtor World I may add.
Why so many cash Buyers you may ask?
I think that there are a few reasons;
 
1. you have your traditional cash buyers who don't want a mortgage and don't need one
2. some did it for convenience and timeliness, that being to complete the transaction quickly
3. others needed to pay cash due to the property quality. It needed work and the buyers … (5 comments)
