Whether or not you are aware of it, there is a growing group on investors (mostly funds and committed individuals) who are purchasing mortgages, either in bulk or individually, and getting in front of these investors may mean new opportunities for you.\u00a0 The investors see an opportunity to participate in a “win-win” situation.
