KEY QUOTE:

[05:35] “When we talk about the concept of creative financing, it's actually creative financing in reverse because we fund our buyers first. We find out how much down payment they have to work with, how much work they will be willing to do to the property and how much they can afford on a monthly basis. Then we go about finding the property for them, in fact, they even participate in finding a property as well.”
