“Successful loan broker discloses all of his secrets to obtaining capital in this financial environment” 


Monday, October 19, 2009

From: Darrell Hornbacher 


Dear Friend, 


Adequate funding is critical to the success of any business.  Yet it can be frustrating as you attempt to navigate the endless maze of options available.  Obtaining capital is no longer as easy as filling out an application.  The fact remains MONEY IS STILL AVAILABLE AND YOU NEED IT!   


I’m not going to give you a lot of hype in order to sell you this guide.  Nor am I going to try and tell you there’s some “amazing secret formula” to get money for your business.  I respect you more than that.  In the last five years I’ve secured over $250,000,000 for my clients.  That's right...$250 Million. If you want to know how and where read on…….


What VIP's say about Darrell...



















"I sat next to Darrell on an airplane.  In a two hour flight he had my financial/credit life straightened out. I can't begin to tell you how appreciative I was especially when I wanted to pay him and he wouldn't hear of it."

"Darrell has been my most trusted advisor in the area of credit and business financing for years.  Whenever I need any help, he is the first person I turn to and for very good reason.  He is simply the best and most honest resource there is."

"Darrell has been a guest on several of my teleseminars.  His knowledge of business funding and both business and personal credit is outstanding.  If you need an honest evaluation of your situation as it relates to these topics I would highly recommend you talk to him.."

"You were after me to use your system for months but I was skeptical. When I finally took the plunge, I suddenly found myself with access to $105,000 for my business in a little under a month. Thanks Darrell. I would've never had the financial confidence to hire a real project manager and take my business to the next level without the added funds."

"Darrell Hornbacher knows the finance business. He understands the complex dynamics of the options available and is committed to optimizing them into a perfect solution for the business or individual looking for any type of funding." 


-David Wolf, Founder of Smallbiz America Network


I'm a small business owner, so my credit-report shows all kinds of goofy stuff going on. That makes it hard to get the right financing -- especially for million-dollar house loans. The 1.2 million dollar dream-home that I had been eyeing FINALLY came on the market -- but it was the HEIGHT of the credit crisis! (November 2008).   When my pre-approved loan fell through 3 weeks before closing, I called 20 different community banks and brokers.  I also called Darrell. And thank goodness I did!  Darrell's connections got me a 30-year fixed loan at a great rate at a time when everyone else said if only you came to us 3 months ago'.  Thank you Darrell!!!

"I've known Darrell for almost three years.  In that time he has exemplified what I demand in a business associate.  His integrity is beyond reproach.  He has participated in numerous teleseminars on credit and business funding for my members.  His factual presentations have been of enormous benefit.  I would definitely recommend anyone take advantage of his knowledge in this area."

From: Derek Pierce


October 15, 2009



 


 


Dear Friend,


My name is Derek Pierce. I have a wife with 2 kids and we live in a small town in Alabama. I believe it's safe to say that you've probably never heard of me.


The reason is that I have been living "under the radar" actively doing deals for the last eight years, pounding the pavement looking for the latest ways and advantages to getting more deals done.


I succeeded in gaining the "unfair business advantage" that put me ahead of everyone in my market.


As a matter of fact, you can ask anyone from our local investors club who is the one person that they know that has done more deals and knows the secrets to getting deals done - they will smile and tell you to call me.


How can I be so confident? Because this scenario happens all the time.


Here's the Proof:


 


$10,673



$7500



$26,881.61





 $9862.66


 


$21,436.46


 


 

















Wait!- Claim Your 'Underground Confidential' Mini Course For FREE!


Inside you'll learn:





















How to rake in large chunks of cash buying and selling houses, regardless of competition.
What the richest real estate investors know about making money this month investing in real estate that you don't.
How to buy houses without credit checks, without going to a bank, and without filling out the first loan application.
Plus, A Whole Lot More...



 


 


 


 


 



         




















 
 
 
 
 


 







Could My Own Breakthroughs Hold the Keys To Your Fortune as a Real Estate Investor?


I remember a time when it wasn't anything like the way it is now.


Heck, I was living paycheck to paycheck, working like a dog, and carrying my lunch to work just so that I could save enough funds to pay off the stinkin' Visa bill.


I found myself looking at opportunity after opportunity, jumping jobs all while I drove my credit cards through the roof.


I'd found myself at an all new low in life working as a car salesman and within just 60 days of starting, the boss tells me, "Derek, It's just not working out."


I went back to my office with my head hung low, shut the door, and tried to figure out what I was going to tell my "bride to be" and even considered jumping off the bridge on the way home. 


Out of shear desparation, I landed another job the very next day with a telecommunications company.  And my life started to look up from here.


I got back on my feet, and was promoted to a new position with more pay and better benefits. 


And then the Unthinkable Happened.


The company I worked for was being bought out.


Like many others that have been faced with downsizing, I too was seeing the effects of a big corporate buyout at the young age of 23.


I was married with one kid- Devin and another kid on the way.


We had house payments, car payments, among several other bills just like any body else. I remember the day they announced the news just like it was yesterday.


Literally, I was so nervouse that I could feel my heart "thumping" against my white, starched pressed shirt.


Everyone was anxious, and biting nails in anticipation for what could be the day that they tell us to pack up and go to the house.


Our manager's name was Chad, an overweight jerk that was a real butt kisser (you know the type).  As he entered the room,  I thought to myself that he would have something positive to say- some positive spin on the news of the merger in attempt to keep the morale high.


But what he would proceed to say has stuck with me from that moment on.


He laid out all the new rules and said


"Either learn to love it or leave....."


You should have seen the looks on all the others faces.


It was like they had just seen a ghost.


See, the new rules meant that they were cutting our vehicle allowance out completely (which was $400 per month), raising our quotas, cutting our commissions, and canceling all of our business to business rate plans which would mean we would have work twice as much to make less money.


And to make a long story short, I turned my notice in a couple of weeks later.


But this time, I'd have the last laugh... Because I would not be going back to a J-O-B.


See, I had been secretly investing in real estate part time and had gotten to a point where my part time income had almost exceeded my full time income.


So, I gave my boss my walking papers.  That was in June of 2001 and I have not looked back since.


They All Snickered At Me When I Told Them I Was Quitting To Be A Full Time Real Estate Investor, But Their Laughter Turned To Amazement When They Saw The Money Rollin' In!


They all thought I'd lost my mind since I would not have a J-O-B with a wife, one child, and another on the way.


That is until I showed them what I was making. 


And then, they wouldn't leave me alone wanting to know how I was doing it...


As my business continue to thrive, I watched as all of my co-workers were either fired, forced to quit, or transferred to other departments.


The most rewarding part was knowing that I had stumbled upon a system that allowed me to escape the corporate rat race forever.


And the system was repeatable and could easily be duplicated.


"Who Else Wants To Know How I've Cranked Out Deal After Deal Without The Use of Banks?"


Here's the bottom line:


I know this business and I know how to create large chunks of cash with Real Estate. As a matter of fact, I am really good at it.


And I will show you how I've done it in my new book, "The Real Estate UnderGround" The Complete Guide To Uncover Massive Profits In Real Estate This Month Without Credit, Without Banks, And Without Begging Anyone for A Loan!


The fact is regardless of what you may have heard, you don't need any credit, and very little money to get started.


I'll show you how I've cranked out deal after deal and the lessons I've personally learned from my years in the threnches in the business.


Now, this is not some theoritical bull shit either. I give you real case studies of deals that I've actually completed that you can learn from.

$25,000 Profit!



"Hey man, I just wanted to tell you my first short sale offer was just excepted and we close in 1 week. I am doing a double closing with the title company and I'm profiting on my first deal $25,000. This was a home that was foreclosing for $51,000. My first offer of $29,750 was rejected and the bank countered with $50,000. I countered that with $40,000.



Guess what......They excepted.



I had already had a buyer lined up and I signed a contract with him for $65,000...........



OH MY..........a $25,000 profit



....... I'm so excited I cant sit still.

It's like I'm telling on myself in my own business.


And the best part is that you can learn my entire system risk free with my...


 100% Take It To The Bank Money Back Guarantee!



 


Ok, Derek, Get On With It - How Much???


First - it's a fraction of what I should be charging.


You've seen just a small sample of the possibilities with the checks I displayed at the beginning of this letter. Now, how much would you invest to make these paydays a reality for yourself?


Would you pay $10,000, or maybe $5000 to make it happen?


Seriously, I wouldn't flinch at all asking $5,000 for this package, because I know the system works and is easy to learn. And more importantly, it's just as easy to implement.


Well you can stop sweating because I've got good news - your investment isn't near that. As a matter of fact if you order today and today only, you can grab your copy for a measly investment of $147  $97.  


The reason I'm doing this is very simple - it's a marketing test and I reserve the right to up the price at any time. I think you'll agree at that price, that I'm practically giving the program away.


Therefore, the $97 price tag will NOT last forever, so I urge you to act now before the price goes up. 


As a matter of fact the physical version normally retails for $197 every day of the week. However, it's not going to cost you near that because if you order today and today only, you can grab the downloadable version for a measly $97.

How to Reduce Your Company’s Carbon Footprint and Cut Costs
Going Green at work doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to build a new building out of used tires, or procure all new energy saving computer and office equipment. It is possible to work towards carbon neutrality without breaking the bank, and then supplement your efforts with cost-effective carbon credits.

The environmental cost of commerce has become an important part of business in America and the world as we all become increasingly aware and concerned about the impact of our actions on climate change and our environment. Many businesses are creating sustainability plans, training environmental impact officers and implementing company wide recycling and reduction programs.

For many small and medium sized businesses, the option of hiring a college degreed sustainability officer and staff is really not in the budget. There are however new online training programs which cater to small and medium sized businesses such as CarbonProfessionalSchool But short of taking a course and becoming an expert, what can your business do to be environmentally responsible and reduce your carbon footprint…all while saving money.

Here are 5 ways to reduce your carbon footprint and save some money.

(1) Recycle Toner and Ink Jet Cartridges. These things, which always run out at the most inopportune time, cost way too much and, contrary to what the big companies than manufacture them proclaim with their “send it in recycling programs” – end up in the landfill, usually in the poorest areas of the world. The technology and quality of recycled toner and ink jet cartridges in many cases surpasses the original equipment manufacturers…and you get to support a local business like yours when you patronize them. And don’t forget to set your printers to “draft” mode when you’re not printing for official communications…it’ll save you money and toner/ink.

(2) Use Less and Buy Recycled Paper. Back in the early 90’s when email was gaining popularity we all proclaimed that it was the beginning of the paperless office. But the paper companies weren’t scared. Paper sales went through the roof because now we had more information to print out, copy and share with each other. Now there are a variety of document sharing services, including free ones like Google Docs, while allow immediate sharing of and collaboration of documents without having to print out 5 copies for the group to mark up. It saves money, time and is much more efficient.

Furthermore, as the quality of recycled content paper has gone up to photo quality level and the cost has gone down to below the cost of “new” paper, it clearly makes no sense not to include the procurement of recycled printer and copier paper in your corporate sustainability plan.

(3) Go Paperless with your invoices. PayPal and Google Checkout both have electronic invoicing capabilities for those of you who process payments via credit card, and for many companies, their PayPal and Google Checkout accounts are tied directly to their corporate checking accounts for seemless, and transaction fee free payment processing. They both offer a variety of export formats and integrate with popular accounting packages like QuickBooks and Microsoft Accounting.

No more 3 copy carbon based invoices, no gas guzzling postmen delivering the mail and no more licking envelopes!

(4) Recycle Everything. Soda cans, newspapers, used equipment, furniture and materials (if you’re manufacturing things) all carry a price. Aluminum cans trade for around $.80 a pound (32 12 ounce cans = 1 pound) – so figure you can sell them to a local recycler for a bit better than half of that. Doesn’t sound like a lot, but when you have an office full of Red Bull crazed employees or “Diet Coke Fiends” it can actually add up relatively quickly.

List your used equipment on Craigslist or Google for a local company that will pick up and “recycle” your used equipment – or better yet, donate it to a local charity and take the tax deduction. Goodwill and the Salvation Army will send out a truck to pick up larger items and most likely make weekly or monthly trips through your area.

(5) Offset Your Carbon Footprint with Carbon Credits

While Reducing, Reusing and Recycling is key in preventing climate change, offsetting your carbon emissions is the next great step in the preservation of our environment for generations to come. The Carbon Calculator Math is below, or you could use a Carbon Footprint Calculator at www.ecoaidnow.com/Calculators.aspx

To offset your carbon emissions simply means to neutralize your part in the polluting of our environment. In technical terms, a carbon offset is a certificate representing the reduction of one metric ton (2,205 lbs) of carbon dioxide emissions.

Certified Projects are developed such as a reforestation project that reduces carbon dioxide emissions, every ton of emissions reduced will result in the creation of one certified carbon offset (http://www.ecoaidnow.com)

Since carbon dioxide emissions are the principal cause of climate change, purchasing carbon offsets is key to promoting a greener environment.

When you offset your personal carbon emissions, you are doing your much-needed part in helping to put an end to global warming and climate change. In addition to making the world a better place, you just might also score a few popularity points with your friends and family.

Going Green at work doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to build a new building out of used tires, or procure all new energy saving computer and office equipment. It is possible to work towards carbon neutrality without breaking the bank, and then supplement your efforts with cost-effective carbon credits.

Going Green and Creating Green Power Projects with Carbon Offsets and Carbon Cre
As we all become more aware of our collective responsibility as stewards of our planet, capitalism has produced a verifiable mechanism for reducing carbon emissions, creating clean energy and engaging us all with the ability to minimize the damage we do to our environment.

Carbon Offsets are a simple way for all of us to create a better environment for ourselves, our kids and, the big one, our grandchildren. More selfishly, we all need clean air to breathe and clean water to drink. And especially those of us who live in Arizona, we don’t really want it to get any hotter on Summer Days!

Buying Carbon Offsets for Your Home Costs Less than a Day of Air Conditioning

While Reducing, Reusing and Recycling are key in preventing climate change, offsetting your carbon emissions is the next great step in the preservation of our environment for generations to come. The Carbon Calculator Math is below, or you could use a Carbon Footprint Calculator at ecoaidnow/Calculators

To offset your carbon emissions simply means to neutralize your part in the polluting of our environment. In technical terms, a carbon offset is a certificate representing the reduction of one metric ton (2,205 lbs) of carbon dioxide emissions. What you are doing when you carbon offset is to use money to pay for your carbon footprint. That money, in turn goes to support carbon projects that reduce the amount of carbon in the air. It is a balancing act. These certified (meaning third-party verified) projects, such a reforestation, need financial backing to make them viable, so the carbon offset is a valuable investment.

Since carbon dioxide emissions are the principal cause of climate change, purchasing carbon offsets is key to promoting a greener environment. Every ton of emissions reduced will result in the creation of one certified carbon offset.

When you offset your personal carbon emissions, you are doing your much-needed part in helping to put an end to global warming and climate change. In addition to making the world a better place, you just might also score a few popularity points with your friends and family.

There is no question that we have a problem. The only question is how people will interpret and react to the problem. A number of people maintain that the world isn’t in a crisis. George Carlin speculated that the Earth just needed plastic, and now that it has it, the humans are no longer needed! That is certainly one perspective.

The Challenge is not so much Global Climate Change, but more of a personal one. Do we want to live in a clean world or a dirty one! Do we want to be subject to wars over fossil fuels? Are we, as individuals, stewards of business, operators of government, and elected officials, willing to take action to right the environmental wrongs we might create? The global becomes personal.

Buying Carbon Offsets is one way to deploy our resources towards a better Future. The best first step is to always think about the very real consequences of your actions. Protecting our air and water isn’t something that can be taken care of by someone else, we have to do it for ourselves.

What’s My Carbon Footprint?

According to the UK Carbon Trust a carbon footprint is "the total set of GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions caused directly and indirectly by an individual, organization, event or product".

Whenever you use energy created from fossil fuels such as oil or coal, you're generating carbon emissions, which increases the level of greenhouse gases entering the atmosphere. Your carbon footprint is created by day-to-day corporate and personal activities such as driving, flying, heating or cooling your home or business and using electrical appliances.

Even the products you purchase can contribute to your carbon footprint because of the energy that was required to create and transport them.There are many products available to help you reduce your carbon footprint, and in many cases reduce your costs, such as recycled products, efficient light bulbs, solar energy and more.

Determining your “carbon footprint” means to measure the amount of greenhouse gases that you are adding into the atmosphere. The term was coined from carbon dioxide, the greenhouse gas that is the main contributor to climate change.

When you offset your personal carbon emissions, you are doing your much-needed part in helping to put an end to global warming and climate change. In addition to making the world a better place, you just might also score a few popularity points with your friends and family.

You can offset your personal carbon emissions through a reputable firm like EcoAid or others who use those offsets to invest in green projects that create efficient energy such as wind power, solar power, farm power, plant trees, and more. Make sure the firm you purchase your carbon credits/offsets from is a member of the Chicago Climate Exchange or the European Climate Exchange, the only third party verified sources of carbon credits.

To take an active role in neutralizing your carbon emissions today use an individual carbon calculator to determine your carbon footprint. You might be surprised how much carbon we create every day, and hopefully learn a little about where you can make some positive changes.

We’re all concerned about the air we breathe, the water we drink and the environmental legacy we leave behind for our children and grandchildren. As we all become more aware of how our behavior affects the environment around us, it’s important to proactively engage in ways to reduce our individual, business and institutional carbon footprints.

Buying carbon credits, which result in the funding of “green projects”, making fewer trips to the store, running the dishwasher at night, supporting “green businesses”, teaching our children environmental responsibility and simply turning off the lights when we’re not in the room can all make a difference in the world in which we live.
