Banks in India are very enterprising, by contrast, and it is quite a bit easier to explain a business to them and have them evaluate it with an entrepreneurial perspective.

A note can be a security, especiall in the case you referenced it was a commercial enterprise with a lease back and raised capital without really losing control of the property under the lease-back.

I know this is tempting to do, but there are endless ways to get into trouble if you don't have a lending background.The Securities and Exchange Commission has regualtions concerning accepting funds from "investors" and how loans can be secured.State laws also dictate the number of investors you can deal with in addition to the SEC.If you borrow from others and provide the loan you make as collateral for the loan they gave you, you are skirting on a securities violation, like a corporate bond.To provide loans as a business enterprise, you will need to have a license.

There you will find links for "Bank REO Listings" and "REO Asset Managers".Of course, Citi could have this loan guaranteed by some mortgage insurer or gov't enterprise (like Fannie or Freddie or VA or FHA); in this event it could be sold via the channels used by those entities.

You want to make sure you have the right Internet provider, the proper equipment, dedicated bandwidth and excellent end-user support.In the past, investing in these types of expensive managed internet networks was limited to enterprises, universities, banks and high-end facilities that had the resources to hire an MSP (Managed Service Provider) and pay for the up-front installation costs.

I am not sure where all this hostility is coming from Ryan, but I can assure you, you are barking up the wrong tree here.In this last thread you referenced, with Jimmy at the end, you misunderstood (which I later clarified without any argument from you) a wording of "fair", but other than that, there were no disagreements of opinion.People have asked in the past what a "fair" or "reasonable" wholesale fee is and I have clearly stated that 10%-20% of the spread is "reasonable" but of course, in our free enterprise, you can get whatever the market will bear.

I have tried working for somewhat larger corporations, "Kaiser Permanente", "Enterprise Rent-A-Car" and "Comverse Technologies", and I just am not cut out for the Corporate World.
