Terry Gearhart - Home Services Lending - Renovation Specialist
|
Terry stepped in, on very short notice (3 hours!) and did a mighty fine job of updating our group on the state of the FHA 203(K) rehab loans (for homeowners, only), and for Conventional rehab lending, specifically for investors. Thank you Terry! (Paul V. had a family medical emergency and could not make the meeting).
This was our first night at Ramada Tropics, 5000 Merle Hay Rd and we had about 50 in attendance, a new record for a general meeting. This was a good omen as we are gain excellent momentum, working toward our 2nd Annual Convention. We are expecting a fabulous turnout because nearly every RE investor knows this is a great time to sharpen their ax - to learn how to make more money in 2010!
This was the first time that many in the room had heard about FHA relaxing the anti-seasoning provision for FHA buyers which requires the Seller to hold title for 90-days, effective Feb 1, 2010. |

Terry Gearhart -- we gave him a snow check. |
We got our wires crossed, so Terry didn't present. Instead, we spent more time networking than usual, and discussed the upcoming 2nd Annual Convention. |
