Geological Reports Stating PROVEN RESERVES - Absolutely Necessary!

In order to fund any in-ground asset, we will require an independent geological report stating specifically what the asset has in PROVEN RESERVES. In short, a geologist must send samplings to an independent lab for testing. Once the test results return, the geologist will interpret the data and provide a value, in US dollars, which indicates what reserves are PROVEN to be in your claim or lease.

Unfortunately, we cannot use reports that state INFERRED, PROBABLE or ESTIMATED reserves. The geologist must state what the PROVEN reserves are.

We'd be happy to review your reserve reports to determine if your project will qualify. And...as always, no upfront fees. Please contact Brian Walker at mines@walkercf.com or 281-964-8037 for more information.

Making Hay While the Sun Shines! --- let's get busy!

I trust you all had a relaxing Labor Day...It's important for all of our developers to know that there is a realistic post-Labor Day phenomenon.... and how to make the most of getting your project funded. In short, we have little time to maximize the relationships we have. Many of our private funding sources completely shut the doors on new submissions because the investments they have already chosen will consume their time and they  will close the year out by focusing on those projects.

Doors do remain open, but we basically have between now and the week before Thanksgiving Day to take care of our affairs...after Thanksgiving, funders slow down and little work is accomplished. We encourage you to be proactive and get us all of the requested material before we miss the window of opportunity before the new year.

Thanks,
Brian Walker

Enjoy the pics... this photo was taken yesterday with one of our key mining partner's general managers in Peru. If you have a mining project in need of funding, please call us at 281-764-1605 or brian.walker7 on skype.

The Money Is Starting to Flow Again! (Finally)

As most of you know, we have been very active in the mining space while the "bricks and sticks" commercial market was asleep. We intended to JV (provide the capital to make it happen) on a 3 casino deal, but were very pleased to learn that a funder was willing to loan 100%....and looking for more opportunities. As grim as the past has been for commercial real estate, I'm pleased to tell you we are seeing the light...if you have an opportunity that makes sense, please call us at 281-764-1605 or info@walkercf.com.

Danger! Do Not "Shop Your Deals"- It only hurts you...the developer and the broker

Time are tough. Enough said. One of the worst things you can do is "shop your deal". What I mean by this is sending your transaction (currency exchange, project development) to a) multiple funders; or b) multiple brokers. The most dangerous is sending it to multiple brokers. Or worse yet, a broker(s) accepted your project but doesn't have a funding source.

First, this is unethical on the broker's behalf, secondly the obvious will happen: He will send your project to every funding source and broker on the planet in hopes that someone will fund your deal. The best way to prevent this is to qualify your broker by asking if he already has a funding source that would accept your project. If he doesn't, don't give him your file. If he does, he should be able to explain the relative terms of the financing immediately or within 24 hours after contacting is funding source.

Why shopping hurts you: it's a small world in the universe of performing funders and brokers. We all know each other. There are some files that I see submitted to our company by 5 or 6 different brokers...funders simply turn down files they see more than once because they assume there's something wrong with the file,they turned it down previously, or they'll pick up the phone and call their other colleagues and ask them why they turned it down.

Why? Probably because the original broker was a rookie and just sent in a bunch of files that made no sense. WCF has our own in-house underwriter and we MAKE FILES WORK. Yes, files that have been turned down. They were good files, just not submitted properly. So we have go back to the funder after hearing, "we saw this file and turned it down" and explain why the deal will work.

Currency exchange deals won't tolerate ANY shopping. If they see the same deal twice, it is immediately declined and the client is blacklisted.

Solution: qualify your broker and make sure he is direct to a performing source or a broker that is. Often, that is WCF.

Dealing With Daisy Chains of Commercial Mortgage Brokers and Working in the Spirit of Cooperation

Walker Commercial Funding, Brian Walker

Secondary is Coming Back....

but no one knows exactly when. What this means, is that the secondary market (Wall Street) that buys CMBS (commercial mortgage backed securites) will be revived when the government buys up all of the bad CMBS out there.

There has been zero movement in the secondary market for 18 months. So, hopefully this will help the little guys out there (small balance commercial loans $5M or less).

Walker Commercial funding has always played in the private space so, this is almost irrelevant to us. But it is still good news. I will let you know when there is some actual movement in the market...we hope, for the benefit of everyone, that it is within the next 60 days.
