My guest today is Aaron Chapman, the loan officer and loan originator for the Security National Mortgage Company. Aaron specializes in investor real estate deals. He began his career doing purchase loans for owner-occupied properties. However, one discussion in the early 2000s changed the direction Aaron went moving forward. He explains why he likes working with investors and how the market is affected by investor deals.
Aaron is also a rescue worker for his local sheriff office in Arizona. We kick off our interview by exploring why Aaron decided to get involved with rescue training. His answer is very telling as to the kind of man he is. Aaron is a fellow member of the Collective Genius Mastermind group and he offers some smart observations of the current market. Tune in for this value-packed episode!
