It’s here. There is no doubt about it. East Coast humidity, Stanley Cup finals (Go Oilers Go!), and Real Estate golf tournaments!

Golf. Real Estate. Summertime. They all go together like hand and glove. Over the years we have been fortunate to be invited to many golf tournaments across Southern Ontario. It seems that real estate professionals, mortgage brokers and commission advance guys love to golf. It’s a sport that demands the best and sometimes exposes the worst in all of us. Golf takes patience, accuracy, strength, goal setting and future thinking. However, golf also brings out the beast in many players. Colourful language and red faces sometimes can be seen in many golf courses around the country. Why? I think it’s because of the Tiger factor.

No. I’m not talking about Tiger Woods’ economic impact on society. I’m talking about the fact that many of us – because of Tiger – now watch golf. And it seems so easy! Putting!? How can that be so hard?! We all beleive that we can play as well as those professionals on TV. No wonder we lose patience at the first sand trap or pond. Admit it. We’re not as good.

Same thing goes for real estate. Buying and Selling a house? Why go to a real estate professional? How hard can it be walking through a home? Well, you and I know the benefits you bring to the whole transaction and process. I, for one, would never go through the process without a licensed real estate professional. Hey, it’s what you do for a living. The rest of us just know how to live in one.

Kinda like commission advances. Sure, there are other companies around. RealCash Bancorp Inc. is the only company that was started from scratch. RealCash wasn’t a greedy broker’s idea. RealCash was not even started by a mortgage company looking to further cash in on the hot housing market. RealCash was not even a banker’s idea! RealCash was created by a University of Windsor economics graduate named Joe who saw a need in the market – And Filled It. That was over 13 years ago. We are still in business and Joe still runs the ship. I beleive we are the most reliable, cost-effective and knowledgeable company in the country when it comes to commission advances for real estate professionals.
