Today is September eleventh. I’ve found myself stopping at different times today to pause and reflect. It’s hard to believe that it has been eleven years since I awoke to the clock radio, confused by what I was hearing. Still groggy, I went into the living room and turned on the TV and couldn’t believe what I was seeing and hearing. It was 9/11/2001.
This morning, over a decade later, I walked the dogs of a firefighter while he was at work. Afterwards I sent him a text to share my gratitude. I was glad that I was … (0 comments)

I just took over this role in February of this year. I am going to share with you a success and a failure in relation to this … (2 comments)

When I first met loan experts Sacha Ferrandi and Pat Hook of Source Capital I was naive to the world of trust deed loan investments and hard money loans. That was back in January of this year.

Usually when I think of real estate, I think of houses or empty lots to build on. Even when I think of commercial or investment property, I have a vision of office buildings or multiple family apartment complexes. But real estate comes in all forms!

Wooh! We are back to Friday once again. I am looking forward to the weekend. I hope you are too.
