Mortgage Blog

I like to read tour books, especially those who shared their stories.

Last week, I read a book in Chinese. It talked about his travel experience in Italy, India and Alaska etc. And he introduced a "Tour packager" concept. This was the first time that I hear about some people who can prepare your itinerary for you, especially the activities in Alaska. I think that was indeed a good idea. I think I would try next time for a 2-3 weeks vacation there.

For the mortgage industry, we call ourselves consultant sometimes(or just call myself as "sales"). Today, I have a past client asked me about how to purchase a rental property with the equities in his portfolio. And at that moment, I think I am also a mortgage packager or planner?

Sometimes, we indeed need some planning. I have a lot of very successful real estate investors, we do the planning together, and borrower purchased and managed the properties, and I prepared and found the best rate and programs for them. And it went so well that some of them already retired early.

For me, I do not want to retire too early. I like working hard, training hard(for my marathons) and travel a lot. And by the way, I finished one half marathon today, the finish time is !:35:15. Not bad for limited training.
