This the fourth and final show (at least for now) in our new mini-series of talking with local lenders around Denver. If you've listened to a few of our podcasts, you know the importance of financing for real estate investing. We wanted to do a series of interviews with lenders that we regularly recommend and work with. Today, I sit down with Jon Wilms of FirstBank. I asked Jon to come on the show to discuss the various lending products that FirstBank offers.  Jon is a bank officer and can underwrite various types of loans at FirstBank. I picked his brain about various products that Colorado real estate investors can use. FirstBank offers both conventional and portfolio loan products. I learned a lot from talking with Jon. Hopefully our conversation gives you insight into more lending options for you. Topics: FirstBank's underwriting guidelines for their portfolio products (and how they compare to conventional) Their guidelines for funding non-warrantable loans Getting loans as a LLC or self directed IRA The sliding scale First Bank uses for debt-to-income (DTI) ratios. Numerous investing scenarios that I threw at Jon! Contact Jon at Jon.wilms@efirstbank.com or 303-456-2356

Maximize moments by being present and aware; maximize doesn’t always mean effort or muscle. The “Front Row” has a different meaning for everyone; be in the front row of your life by getting close to what makes you come alive.

#195. Jon Amtrup is a Norwegian sailor who spends a large portion of his time above the Arctic Circle. In fact, when I spoke to him back in January at the Oslo Central Train Station, he had just returned from Tromso after a winter sailing expedition with a group of Russians who wanted to see the northern lights! So Jon’s pretty hard-core to say the least. He’s also an avid single-handed sailor, and is helping another Norwegian sailor put together a campaign for next year’s Golden Globe Race. Jon & I spoke at length about his career and his & our future Arctic plans. Contact Jon at explorenorth.no -- On the Wind is presented by Weems & Plath.
