Welcome!! We hope you will enjoy this book! Before you get started, make sure you use the “Save As” function on your browser to save this file to your computer. The Internet address where you have downloaded this from changes often. Please note there is a handy "find" function which will allow you to search this book for any keyword or string of text you wish to locate. (Binocular Tool) Also note that there are hundreds of internal links, allowing you to jump from location to location. The table of contents and index are such examples. Although it may not seem obvious at first glance, you can find links by placing your cursor, which resembles a hand, over text, and if the cursor changes to a pointed finger, you know you have found a link. Throughout the book I commonly refer to other sections, usually something like the following: "To learn more about balloon payments, please refer to the section titled "Balloons" found on page xx." In this example, the word "Balloons" would be a link. Watch for them as they come in very handy. A Note to Readers: If you are requesting owner financing information so you can structure your own financing, to be purchased by an independent third party at the closing table, please note that while this book is written for lienowners, you can easily take the information provided here and use it for your own purpose. Pay special attention to the variables which impact a lien’s market value, then structure your property purchase agreement likewise. The chances of having your offer accepted are greatly increased due to the high market value of the proposed lien. Of course, we invite you to call our office(s) if you have questions. (
