EasyHUD LEarns a "Hybrid" Forelcosure Model?
Preview:
Just wanted to give a follow up on the interview we had last night. Bob Diamond was our guest, and the topic was a new investing model being called the “hybrid” format. During the course of the interview, Bob revealed some no-brainer strategies for generating more leads from some often overlooked sources … and the beautiful thing is that there doesn’t seem to be any other investors trying to work these leads! The main talking points fo the interview were:Foreclosure Predictions for 2007
Predictions on Short Sales for 2007
Understanding Alternate Lead Sources to drive traffic

EasyHUD WIns a Silver?
Preview:
When we moved away from New Orleans after the Hurricane, we ended up in Winston-Salem, NC which is the home of Graham “Mr Banker” Treakle.

Those Darn Saints!
As you probably know by now, me (and by default, EasyHUD) are based in New Orleans and we have all been caught up in Saints Fever. For years, locals have called the Saints the “a’ints” because of their dismal record … until now! Everywhere I have been for the past week I have seen nothing but Black & Gold (the Saints color). It has been very exciting.
But those darn Chicago Bears put it to us today, so the dream is over. Boo hoo 
EasyHUD Goes Back to School?
Preview:
In a previous post I mentioned that I had sought out the dean of the School of Entrepreneurship at Tulane (John Elstrott, PhD) about seeing if there was an opportunity for the students to lend some of their knowledge to the future success of EasyHUD and all of my business endeavors. As a result of that initial conversation with Dr Elstrott, he invited me to attend a session of class and address them on the topic of “What it Means to be an Entrepreneur” … according to me.

In an earlier post I mentioned that i would deliver the rest of my talking points from my address to the Tulane MBA Program for Entrepreneurship ... and here they are:
“Lose your ego and laugh all the way to the bank” – I first heard this from Marshall Sylver and at first I didn’t really get it … but once I did it made a lot of sense. What this means to me is that if I find myself saying “What does THAT guy know? I’ve been investing in foreclosures for over 7 years” then I need to... continue reading >>Foreclosure News for 30 Jan
