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.”

 

How C-Loans Actually Works

Think of C-Loans.com as a giant filter. We start with 750 participating commercial lenders. Every time you enter more information into the application - loan amount, property type, loan type, state, credit - dozens of lenders are filtered out. Upon completion, you are left with a list of 20 to 30 perfect lenders. You put a check mark next to six lenders at a time and press submit. Soon you are receiving quotes and offers. No good offers? Come back and submit to six more lenders, then six more, and so on. And C-Loans.com is free!

C-Loans Intro
 

Place Your Loan With C-Loans

Using C-Loans.com you can actually submit your commercial loan to 750 commercial lenders, six lenders at a time.

Our other portal, CommercialMortgage.com (“CMDC”), is a little faster and easier. CMDC also lists over 3,000 commercial real estate lenders, far more than C-Loans; however, CMDC only produces a list of suitable lenders. Then you have to actually contact each one and submit your deal. Both C-Loans.com and CMDC are free!

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
  • South Carolina
  • Georgia
  • Pennsylvania
  • Michigan
  • Louisiana
  • Oklahoma
  • Rhode Island

Unfortunately the following 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.

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. By the end of the week, he owed her $9.50. She received the money promptly, along with a 50 cent tip and a note that read, "Thanks, Mom, keep up the good work!"

- 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. Just like in 2008, 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.”

 

How To Generate Commercial Leads Like Turning On a Spigot

I just completed updating in 2019 my popular video course, “How to Market for Commercial Loans.” I have been marketing for commercial loans for almost 40 years. I have wasted well over $175,000 on marketing campaigns that were complete busts. Direct mail. Postcards. Classified ads. Magazine ads. Google ads. Complete busts. Here is what works.

Blaring Music Joke

We were at a red light when a car pulled up, its music blasting. “He’ll be deaf before he’s 25,” I said. “That won’t help us,” my wife replied. “He’ll only turn it up.”

 

Have You Been Screwed Out of a Big Loan Fee Yet?

Whenever someone boasts of being a good horseman, I always ask him, “Have you ever been thrown?” The correct answer is, “Many, many times”. There is an old saying, “If you ain’t been thrown, you ain't ridden very much.” The same is unfortunately true of commercial mortgage brokerage. You will screwed out of a loan fee of $10,000 or more at least twice per year for your entire career. Now I am NOT talking about the borrower closing the loan and not paying you. That rarely happens. What these dastardly borrowers do is lie to you or cancel on you. You would be a flipping idiot not to pay a lousy $199 for my ninety-minute video training course, Fee Collection For Commercial Mortgage Brokers. It includes my famous fee agreement. Go ahead and ignore this section. You will cry, I absolutely guarantee you.

Dinosaur Joke

Three dinosaurs stumble across a magic lamp. They rub it, and a genie appears. “I have three wishes, so I’ll give one to each of you,” the genie announces. The first dinosaur thinks hard. “Alright,” he says, “I’ll have a big, juicy, piece of meat.” Instantly, the biggest, juiciest piece of meat he’d ever seen appears in front of him. Not to be outdone, the second dinosaur thinks even harder. “I know! I’ll have a shower of meat!” Immediately, huge pieces of meat rain down around him.

The third dinosaur, certain not to be outdone, thinks harder than the previous dinosaurs. “I’ve got it!” he cries, “I want a MEATIER shower!"

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!"
