interview with Roger Becker, Street smart success

ABOUT THE EPISODE

In this engaging conversation, our guest, Bill Bymel, CEO and fund manager of First Lien Capital, reveals a secret to wealth building in the real estate arena that doesn’t require you to be a direct hands-on operator to yield substantial returns on your money.

In this episode, we explored a financial strategy that’s as intriguing as it is unconventional – investing in the secondary mortgage market, a less conventional but lucrative approach where opportunities abound for savvy investors.

First Lien Capital specializes in investing in pools of predominantly non-performing single-family notes at discounted prices. What makes this approach particularly appealing is its conservative loan-to-value ratio of 60%, which helps mitigate risks.

But here’s where the magic happens: First Lien Capital boasts ownership of over 700 mortgages valued at a staggering sum exceeding $100 million. What do they do with this impressive portfolio? They don’t just sit on it; they proactively work to transform these non-performing loans into high-performing assets.

Their approach involves helping borrowers regain their financial footing, steering those once-ailing mortgages back into performing status. Once these loans are back on track, they’re not hoarded; they’re strategically resold to other investors, creating a win-win scenario for all parties involved.

This podcast conversation with Bill Bymel was truly eye-opening, showcasing how innovation, strategy, and a keen eye for opportunity can turn the real estate game on its head. It’s a fantastic example of how financial innovation can yield impressive results, even if it’s a bit different from what you might expect.
