The idea being if mom needs to sell her junky house to a cash buyer in order pay for the care facility plus doesn't have to deal with repairs then hopefully your senior health care network contacts will remember you when they run across this which is supposedly often. 

The reason you’re are not where you want to be in health , wealth or relationships is discipline.

I'm also a big believer that Health is indeed a person's greatest Wealth.

Also it appears the company they want to transfer the loans to I looked up on NMLS consumer access is not licensed.... 

They are going to put in a certain amount of work and their own money on marketing, photos, their overhead costs (agents are independent contractors who pay their own E&O and health insurance, income taxes, MLS dues, NAR dues, continuing ed requirements, etc., etc. all out of their commissions before they get to keep any $), their time, etc. then they also have to split anything they make with their brokerage. $4k would be losing money for me but again it sounds like a lower cost of living area.   

(Please don't construe any contact info I provide as an "endorsement" or "recommendation.")Regarding the company your inquiring about, I've come across the following links - for whatever their worth (they may or may not be reliable):https://getoutofdebt.org/46215/saen-higgins-switch...https://getoutofdebt.org/36930/are-wealth-without-risk-informercials-an-extension-of-john-beck-tax-lien-systems-challenged-by-ftcIt's unfortunate that there is often an inverse relationship between (a) the amount of marketing an education/guru company does and (b) the actual value of the services provided.The initial sale made by such companies are really part of getting unsuspecting consumers into a sales funnel that leads to selling the consumer an education course for $10,000's.

Like a health cult lol.

Lastly, it could be that the bank is going to portfolio your loan at below-market pricing because they want the entire banking relationship (deposits, transaction processing, consumer lending, etc) or simply want the risk (yield).Lots of local and regional banks have been retaining loans at really aggressive pricing recently as the current environment makes this favorable for them.

They seem to Be priced as though they will never get consumed by the ocean even though every year some are. 

Without the SSN the ability of the CRA (consumer reporting agency) to cross reference information is hindered.
