Crossover with an increasing interest in structured debt, special purpose vehicles, and the profitability of syndicating collateralized assets, and the price paid for these assets, as characterized by expected return, has increased significantly while expected return has fallen off a cliff.We are improving our use of technology through on line marketing strategies, specifically our web presence, SEO, SEM, and identifying our referral base and directly contacting them to try to identify those investment opportunities that meet our risk/reward profile.  40 + years ago when I began real property investing, as well as investing in discounted second lien notes, it was almost a “pick and choose” situation.

Sure -- risk and reward. 

Have to take a little bit of calculated risk sometimes to reap the rewards. 

I suspect someone purchased it at a good value and is looking for someone to reward them substantially for their purchase, but $150k is too much. 

But if you work hard the rewards are well worth the effort!!

I had to convince myself that the risk was worth the reward, which it was, but it would have been nice to start in a cheaper market! 

Still, it can be rewarding when you find those deals that work. 

Its more work, but also much more rewarding.

It's definitely a tough and frustrating market at times but when you do find a deal and you do a good job, it's fairly easy to get rewarded for it. 

We have permanent financing in place and look forward to years of rewards for it's undertaking.
