Our story

Hi, I'm Alan.  I hope we get to meet in the near future.  In the meantime, here's my personal story:

Like I said on the homepage, I'm not a slick marketing professional.  I'm a gentle old grandpa who's reached the age and position that allows me to help folks out of sticky situations, some of which I've personally experienced.  You see, I've had my fair share of life and financial challenges.  Here's just a few:

I started a side-business, but quit my full-time job too soon. The business failed. Two years later, collection agencies were hounding me nonstop... phone calls at home & work, day & night.  The final straw came when I was served papers at my home.  At that point, I was trapped and the only thing I could do was declare bankruptcy.

Fast forward about 12 years... had a solid job in IT and we "owned" two vehicles and a home.  All was well until my wife decided she didn't want to be married to me any longer.  Following a long, drawn out (and expensive) custody battle, I owed child support for seven (yes, that's 7) children!  Thank goodness for Tony, a man who knocked on my front door and said he wanted to buy my house. The timing couldn't have been better... I was still current on the mortgage and most of my bills.  At first, I thought he was crazy, but he ended up helping me and my new wife out of very difficult circumstances. I sold the house, we gave away most everything as there was no time to sell it, and moved into a cheap apartment to start over.

Fast forward about 9 years... had a very solid (or so I thought) well-paying job.  We "owned" one rental and our home.  My employer decided to eliminate my department!  We sold our home and rental to stay afloat... and so it goes... up and down, up and down.

Along the way, there were always kind, generous people to help.  One Christmas, church friends pooled their resources to get each of the kids a couple of gifts.  When we had only one car which I used to commute to work, some friends gave us a car, so my first wife could shuttle the kids around and have a life.  And don't forget Tony who saved us from certain foreclosure!

Most people are good people. But bad things happen to good people.  Ever since Tony saved me from another bankruptcy and potential foreclosure, I've wanted to do the same for others.  If you're feeling trapped in a bad situation, please call us.  We'll work with you to understand your situation, the cause(s) of your stress, your ideal solution(s), and then offer some options.  We may offer to buy your house, we may not.  Even if we can't agree to your asking price, we can probably help in other ways. Call us to find out how!  (I can't give away all my secrets on the web.)  Let me and my team be your "Tony".
