Investors With Cash Are Kings in Today’s Market
Some are calling this the best market for investors since real estate tanked in the early 1980s.
Investors, alone and in groups, are negotiating volume deals as they purchase whole subdivisions and bundles of 10 to 50 defaulted loans for pennies on the dollar.
“What we’re seeing today dwarfs [the 1980s] by five or 10 times,” says Bob Leonetti, president of SMI Funding, an Austin, Texas, company that originates and acquires private and conventional mortgages. “There are huge opportunities for investors.”
