“We teach our investor clients the fundamentals of successful foreclosure property investing, and show them how to create ethical win-win scenarios that benefit both the troubled homeowner and the investor. Our method enables the homeowner to conserve some equity for a new start, while assuring the investor of a reasonable profit on resale of the home. That's a much better solution than seeing the owner lose everything at auction.”
“The median home price in Boston fell 4.5% over the last three months. In Washington D.C. prices were flat over the last 30 days, but down 5.4% over the last 90 days. Realtors outside Manhattan in New York City report a shift to a buyer's market.”

“Our mission has always been to help investors create win-win scenarios that benefit both the troubled homeowner and the investor. The owner in distress saves some equity for a new start, and the investor realizes a profit on the resale of the home. That's far better than having the owner lose everything in an auction on the courthouse steps.”
