FAQ’s | Commercial Mortgage Bridge Loans - 29 Aug 2016 22:08

Tags:

[[html]]Many commercial borrowers cannot qualify for a mortgage at a traditional bank these days because lending standards have become so stringent. It is even more difficult for them to qualify if they are self-employed, or if the commercial property is not owner-occupied.<br><br>Borrowers are able to qualify for commercial mortgage bridge loans even if they have less than perfect credit histories because the loan is secured by valuable real property. Borrowers take out mortgage bridge loans and are willing to pay the interest rate because they need the money to complete a short-term project, such as renovation or improving the property, which will result in higher cash flow once the improvements are completed.<br><br>If the transaction did not make business sense for the borrower to take on the loan or if they could obtain a cheaper interest rate elsewhere, they would not take on the commercial mortgage bridge loan. The process of arranging a bridge loan is much quicker and easier than getting a traditional bank mortgage, which involves extensive and time-consuming documentation and often leads to a rejection of the loan application.<br><br><img style="float:left;margin:10px;border:none;" src="http://commercialbridgeloan.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/loan-300x264.jpg" width="379" /><br><br><img src="https://www.lender411.com/commercial/Pennsylvania/images/loan-options-new/Commercial_03.png" width="268" /><br><br>ga('create', 'UA-51088416-1', 'auto');<br><br>ga('send', 'pageview');<br><br>— <br><br><a href='http://www.commercialmortgagebridgeloan.com/faqs/'>http://www.commercialmortgagebridgeloan.com/faqs/</a><br><br>[[/html]] - Comments: 0

HBO released a fresh trailer on Sunday, so brush off your Stetson and get ready for some mechanical people with shotguns and spurs. HBO released a teaser in June, but the new trailer takes a longer, deeper dive into the upcoming series.<br><br><img style="float:left;margin:10px;border:none;" src="http://commercialbridgeloan.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/bridge-loans-300x237.jpg" width="319" /><br><br><object width="400" height="241"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/bLfYiQdARkI&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/bLfYiQdARkI&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="241"></embed></object><br><br>Michael Crichton, creator of "Jurassic Park," wrote and directed the original 1973 film version of "Westworld." The basic premise is all about what can go wrong in a Western-themed amusement park populated by robots. Since this is on HBO, we can expect a grittier, more "Game of Thrones"-like vision than we saw in the '70s movie.<br><br>Related storiesHBO's 'Westworld' teaser trailer drops during 'Game of Thrones'HBO orders a whole lot of 'Westworld' for 2015<br><br>The trailer starts off like a classic Western, with a gorgeous river valley landscape view and people on horseback. It then quickly dives into sci-fi territory. Oscar-winning actor Anthony Hopkins (as Westworld's creator) brings some gravitas to the trailer, which has an almost apocalyptic feel in places. The scenes fly by, but we get glimpses of bodies strewn across the ground, a lone wolf padding through the town and a graveyard filled with crosses.<br><br><img style="float:left;margin:10px;border:none;" src="http://www.calhardmoneylenders.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/img15-300x187.jpg" width="321" /><br><br>HBO has marked the trailer as the "mature version," but there's nothing too crazy or NSFW going on here. One of the most memorable images involves a cowboy drinking from a bottle of milk as the white liquid streams out of a hole in his gut.

Loans / Lease :: Car Title Loan Company - 29 Aug 2016 20:33

Tags:

[[html]]Car title loan companies are those that lend you money in exchange to the title of your car. You are required to hand over your car title along with a set of keys as collateral. Car title loans are the short-term loans that have a loan term of 30 days. Auto title loan companies lend title loans for cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats, RVs and other vehicles. The best thing about these loans is that you can take the money and still have your vehicle in your possession.<br><br><img style="float:left;margin:10px;border:none;" src="http://privatemoneyutah.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Business-Park-Photo.jpg" width="271" /><br><br>There are a large number of car title financers to provide you the loan. The lenders provide flexible loan terms to suit different needs. Most do not check the credit histories of borrowers and offer loans even for people with bankruptcies, no credit and bad credit. They can furnish the money quickly in a hassle-free manner.<br><br>Applying for car title loans through online financing companies is very easy. You need to fill in an online form and a company representative will let you know in no time whether you qualify for an auto title loan or not. There are few conditions in which the companies lend you money. Prospective borrowers generally need to have a clear title to their car. Loan companies then assess the vehicles and estimates the amount which you are eligible to borrow. <br><br><img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kzxcHENFTf0/VVrY0uRRywI/AAAAAAAABHc/SFOAhZiyQco/s1600/houston-heights-church-refi-60k.jpg" width="341" /><br><br>Most loan companies provide flexible loan terms. They give you the option of extending your loan for another month once it is payable. This can be done by paying the interest at the end of the loan term. Loans can be paid off at any time and do not carry any pre-payment penalty. <br><br>These small emergency loans generally have an annual interest rate of a three-digit figure and are made for less than the value of the car. One can extend a loan for any number of times. Some companies even offer to refinance your existing loan which enables you a pay off an existing car title loan with a new one.<br><br>&#13;<br><br><a href='http://www.articlebiz.com/article/32324-1-car-title-loan-company/'>http://www.articlebiz.com/article/32324-1-car-title-loan-company/</a><br><br>[[/html]] - Comments: 0

[[html]]Brussels crime lab attacked, five arrested<br><br>Brussels (AFP) - Several attackers rammed a car through the gates of Belgium's national crime laboratory on Monday in Brussels and then started a fire in what prosecutors said may have been an attempt to destroy evidence.<br><br>Five people were arrested nearby and are being questioned, but there is no confirmed link to terrorism so far. No one was injured in the fire or by a large explosion which shook houses nearby, the city's prosecutors said.<br><br>The incident comes as Belgium remains on high alert following suicide attacks on the city's airport and metro in March which were claimed by the Islamic State group.<br><br>"Several attackers forced their way into the institute using their car and were able to attack the building," said Ine Van Wymersch, a spokesman for the Brussels prosecutor's office.<br><br>"The possibility of a terrorist act is not confirmed. It goes without saying that several individuals may have wanted to destroy evidence related to their legal cases."<br><br>The incident happened in the early hours Monday at the national criminology institute in Neder-Over-Hembeek, a northern suburb of Brussels, and near the famed Atomium tourist attraction.<br><br>Part of the building was scorched and burned out, an AFP reporter saw, while a burned out car was lifted from the scene by a crane.<br><br>Van Wymersch said the crime lab, which gathers and analyses evidence, "was not chosen by chance. It is an important part of the justice department and deals with sensitive information in connection with several ongoing cases."<br><br>She said it was not yet clear how they started the fire.<br><br>- 'Powerful' explosion -<br><br>Fire service spokesman Pierre Meys said there was an "extremely powerful" explosion, adding: "Windows of the lab were blown out dozens of metres away."<br><br>He said about 30 firefighters were at the scene at around 3:00am (0100 GMT) fighting the blaze.<br><br>A young woman living in the neighborhood said she was awakened by the explosion. "It made the house shake," she told AFP, asking not to be named.<br><br>The institute is part of Belgium's federal justice system. Among its tasks is carrying out forensic analysis for criminal cases.<br><br>Belgium has been high alert after suicide bombers struck Brussels airport and a metro station near the European Union headquarters on March 22, killing 32 people.<br><br>Those attacks were claimed by the Islamic State group, which controls large areas of territory in Iraq and Syria and has claimed numerous terror attacks in Europe in recent months.<br><br>The jihadist cell responsible for the Brussels attacks was also heavily involved in the November Paris attacks in which 130 people were killed and hundreds more wounded.<br><br>The bombmaker for the Paris attacks, Najim Laachraoui, blew himself up at Brussels airport.<br><br><img style="float:left;margin:10px;border:none;" src="https://www.commercialloandirect.com/images/bridge-loans-main.jpg" width="291" /><br><br>Earlier this month it emerged that Belgian authorities were also hunting a cousin of the El Bakraoui brothers who also blew themselves up in the Brussels attacks.<br><br>Belgium has caught several people linked to the Brussels and Paris atrocities including Salah Abdeslam, the last surviving member of the Paris IS cell, who has since been extradited to France.<br><br>In June Belgian authorities approved a French extradition request for Mohamed Abrini, the "man in the hat" seen on CCTV footage with Laachraoui and Ibrahim El Bakraoui at Brussels airport.<br><br>Abrini has not yet been handed over pending further investigation into the Brussels attacks.<br><br><a href='http://news.yahoo.com/brussels-crime-lab-attacked-destroy-evidence-134649072.html'>http://news.yahoo.com/brussels-crime-lab-attacked-destroy-evidence-134649072.html</a><br><br>[[/html]] - Comments: 0
