Joke Du Jour
The tot had just been put to bed for the umpteenth time, and his mother's patience was wearing thin. "I don't want to hear you call out, ‘Mom’, one more time!" she warned him sternly. After a few minutes of quiet, a small voice came from upstairs, "Mrs. Jones? Can I have a drink of water?”

Business Purpose Rental Home Loans in Most States
Apply Now! Please pay special attention to the following: Unlike other hard money brokers, Blackburne & Sons Realty Capital Corporation makes home loans with a 15-year term (30-year amortization), and there is NO prepayment penalty. Our competitors make just three-year or five-year bridge loans. Our loans are clearly better because you may want to hold the property. These loans are sometimes known as buy-to-rent loans.
Historically, Blackburne & Sons was mostly a commercial lender. This has now changed. We are aggressively aggressively seeking non-owner occupied home loans. We have already closed loans in the following states, and our attorney can quickly research your state to verify that we can lend there. Unfortunately, in a handful of states, an NMLS license is not enough.
We can lend in the following states:
|
|
- New Jersey
- Missouri
- Maryland
- Alaska
- Ohio
- Florida
- New York
- California
- Washington
- Arizona
- Texas
- Hawaii
- Virginia
- Delaware
- Indiana
- Louisiana
- Hawaii
- North Carolina
- Georgia
- Pennsylvania
- Michigan
- Louisiana
- Oklahoma
- Rhode Island
- Tennessee
These states are out:
- Nevada
- Minnesota
- Idaho
- Oregon
- South Dakota
- Vermont
- North Dakota
- Utah

What about YOUR state? If you have a real-life deal, we’ll hire our attorney to quickly research its availability.
The property has to be non-owner occupied, and the purpose of the loan must be for business. Remember, the nice thing about business purpose home loans from Blackburne & Sons is that our loans have a 30-year amortization, a 15-year term, and no prepayment penalty.

Devout Cowboy Joke
The devout cowboy lost his favorite Bible while he was mending fences out on the range. Three weeks later, a cow walked up to him carrying the Bible in its mouth. The cowboy couldn't believe his eyes. He took the precious book out of the cow’s mouth, raised his eyes heavenward and exclaimed, "It's a miracle!" "Not really," said the cow, "Your name is written inside the cover.”

Picture Joke
A soldier serving overseas far from home was annoyed and upset when his girl wrote to break off their engagement and ask for her photograph back. He went out and collected from his friends all the unwanted photographs of women that he could find, bundled them all together, and sent them back with a note saying, “I regret that I cannot remember which one you are. Please keep your photo and return the others.”

Fifteen-Year Fix-and-Flip Loans for Residential Properties
|
|
Most fix-and-flip lenders make one or two-year loans. If the market turned (a very real risk today) and houses stopped selling, the flipper might be forced to sell his cherry house at a loss in order to pay off the balloon. Had he had gotten a 30-year amortization, 15-year fix-and-flip loan from Blackburne & Sons, he could have simply rented out the property and enjoyed a positive cash flow until the time time was right to sell again.
Our fix-and-flip loans have no pre-payment penalty, so you can use them for 60 days or 15 years.

Flirting Student Joke

- Today's Observation -
Refinance Your Commercial Loan Right Now!
Days Now Matter.
When banks get scared, one of the first lending spigots that they turn off is commercial mortgage lending. Banks are about to get scared again. This recovery cannot continue too much longer. It's already the longest recovery in history.
Ordinarily, a garden-variety recession is no big deal. Unfortunately, the timing of this recession may kill President Trump’s chances of reelection. We could easily elect a socialist-leaning president, like Elizabeth Warren.
Holy poop! Right or wrong, equity investors will not like that. Can you imagine the rout in the stock market once it becomes clear that Trump will lose? A 30% to 40% crash in the stock market would send our banks into survival mode. New loans will be rare, but the banks will continue to rake in their monthly payments.

Just like in 2008, the Multiplier Effect (20:1) will kick into reverse. Every time a bank collects a $1,000 loan payment and fails to immediately lend it back out, a whopping $20,000 (20:1) gets sucked out of the U.S. money supply.
Trillions of dollars will be destroyed. Therefore your commercial loan customers must move immediately to refinance their commercial loans. Bank rates on commercial loans are terrific right now.
Do you know how banks price their commercial real estate loans? They look at five-year Treasuries (1.68% today), and then they add 2.75% to 3.5%.
Remember this rule: When quoting a commercial real estate loan from a bank, look up five-year Treasuries, and then add 2.75% to 3.5%. Better deals get the better rates. Subtract one-half percent for multifamily deals.

Using this handy formula, your client can expect a commercial real estate loan from a bank of 4.43% to 5.18%. That’s a wonderful rate, so call up your investors and get them moving right now. If they start the process right away, they will likely close just in time.

Golf Ball Joke
A nurse noticed a golfer pacing up and down outside the operating room where another golfer who had a golf ball driven down his throat was bring treated. "Is he a relative of yours?" she asked. "No," said the golfer. "It's my ball.”

Are You Wise Enough To Pay Attention?
There are literally hundreds of private money mortgage companies out there today, and you can probably get a decent loan from most of them. But here’s the thing. Virtually all of these hard money shops are newbies (since 2009), and they are funds. The problem with hard money mortgage funds is that they don’t survive recessions. As soon as a recession hits, the investors rush to withdraw. Suddenly the hard money shop running the fund has no money with which to lend and earn loan fees. With little income coming in, the hard money shop closes.
Think I am full of beans? There were 300 hard money mortgage businesses in 2006. Fewer than ten survived.
Why do you care?
You have lost your relationship with these lenders! Success in real estate finance is all about relationships. Consider the fact that Blackburne & Sons has been in business for almost 40 years. We survived the S&L Crisis, the Dot-Com Meltdown, and the Great Recession. We were just about the only hard money shop in the country to remain in the market every day of the Great Recession.
Most of you will ignore this. The handful of wise investors and brokers will build a relationship with Blackburne & Sons. Winter is coming.

Shopping List Joke
My father was completely lost in the kitchen and never ate unless someone prepared a meal for him. When Mother was ill, however, he volunteered to go to the supermarket for her. She sent him off with a carefully numbered list of seven items.
Dad returned shortly, very proud of himself, and proceeded to unpack the grocery bags. He had one bag of sugar, two dozen eggs, three hams, four boxes of detergent, five boxes of crackers, six eggplants, and seven green peppers.

Savings Joke
After years of scrimping and saving, a husband told his wife the good news: "Honey, we've finally saved enough money to buy what we started saving for in 1979.” "You mean a brand-new Cadillac?" she asked eagerly. "No," said the husband, "a 1979 Cadillac.”

Dirty Clothes Joke
Weary of constantly picking clothes up from the floor of her son's room, a mother finally laid down the law. Each item of clothing she had to pick up would cost her son 25 cents.

Final Funny
A rancher was minding his own business when a DEA agent came up up to him and said, "We got a tip that you may be growing illegal drugs on the premises. Do you mind if I take a look around?"
The old rancher replied, "That's fine, you shouldn't go over there though." As he pointed at one of his fields. The arrogant DEA agent snapped at him, "I'm am a federal agent! I can go wherever I want!” With that he pulled out his badge and shoved it into the ranchers face.
The rancher shrugged this off and continued with his daily chores. About 15 minutes later he heard a loud scream from the field he had pointed out earlier. All of a sudden he could see the DEA agent sprinting towards him with a large bull on his heels.
The rancher rushed to the fence and yelled, "Your badge! Show him your badge!"
