Each year, thousands of people start
a new career in real estate sales.
Many experience success almost
immediately. They gain traction
quickly, naturally connect with the
work, and make a great deal of
money. Others struggle; some even
leave the business after only a
short period. They spend their
valuable time and resources getting
a real estate license, setting up
their business, and putting their
best foot forward. Even with great
support and training, if they do not
have what it takes to be successful
in the real estate business, they
will struggle accomplishing even
mediocre success.
Core Capacities Predict Success in a
Work Environment
Have you
ever wondered why this happens? We
have. In fact, we have spent a large
amount of our own time and resources
studying hundreds of our own agents
in an attempt to quantify this
elusive phenomenon. We've discovered
that the key criterion for success
in this industry is something called
core capacities. Core capacities are
a person's organic talent or natural
wiring. Each person has a unique
recipe of core capacities that
predict his or her propensity to
perform certain tasks with success
and vital engagement. This advantage,
coupled with our outstanding
training and personalized coaching,
allows our associates to meet and
exceed their goals.
Discover Your Unique "Recipe" of
Core Capacities Now
We have
developed an understanding of what
core capacities tend to make people
successful in the Prudential
environment. We
would like to give you an
opportunity to conduct a 10-minute
evaluation to learn this
information as well. The evaluation
is quick, easy, and confidential.
You'll not only get to read your
results right after completing the
evaluation (they are yours to keep),
but you will also have the option of
speaking with one of our senior
managers concerning your results.

Our Company
Fairway America is a successful locally owned and privately funded asset based
lender. Through a simplified and streamlined process, Fairway America provides
financing solutions for people who are unable or unwilling to get financed by more
traditional lending sources. Every day, Fairway America helps borrowers solve
difficult problems, meet pressing deadlines, or take advantage of excellent
opportunities. While assisting these borrowers, we also enable our investors to earn
above average returns they are unable to get elsewhere. As many brokers and
lenders have gone out of business or are struggling mightily, our conservative
lending approach has enabled us to weather this financial storm and positioned us to
take advantage of unprecedented market opportunities while helping people who are
otherwise unable to secure financing.
The Position
Fairway is seeking a "Chief Credit Officer" to build out and oversee the credit functions of the business from underwriting to collections. The Chief Credit Officer will report directly to the President. In this capacity, he or she will provide input, recommendations, support, direction, and leadership in the credit, underwriting, lending, and collection policies to grow a quality loan portfolio. The successful candidate will thrive not only in working on current deals in a timely fashion to accurately assess risk but also in developing processes and models to allow us to do so more efficiently for much a larger loan portfolio over a wider geographic area.
Responsibilities

Develop credit policy and procedures to ensure risk is in sync with company credit standards relative to returns.
Be the liaison between the Sales and Credit/Underwriting departments in terms of assisting with structuring and selling of loans based on company credit standards, risk ratings, etc.
Direct the Portfolio Manager to ensure that collections remain within company expectations and requirements.
Make or approve credit and underwriting recommendations and decisions on loans in current portfolio as necessary.
Define and create credit and underwriting policies going forward both for loans held servicing retained and for loans originated for sale into the secondary market, if any.
Help develop and implement risk adjusted pricing models for new loans and communicate and implement policies effectively through other company stakeholders.
Review appraisals and internal valuations for accuracy and completeness.
Inspect properties as necessary and make determination of value.
Build and maintain Approved Appraiser and similar 3rd party provider lists related to the credit underwriting function.
Oversee growth of the department as we expand geographically.
Recruit, hire and train underwriters, field underwriters, processors, loan servicing personnel, etc.
Participate in audits with respect to the company's credit and collections policies.
Research new geographic markets that are desirable to enter based on demographics, competitive landscape, and other factors, and build out future infrastructure of Credit/Underwriting/Appraisal processes to support growth.
Qualifications
At Fairway America, your values, abilities, and demonstrable track record of success are generally more important to us than direct experience. That being said, an ideal candidate would have the following:
5-10 years experience in real estate lending, credit analysis and similar training specifically in the areas of commercial mortgage origination, lending, credit analysis, property valuation, and loan servicing
Ability to demonstrate an understanding of consultative selling practices

Our Company
Fairway America is a successful locally owned and privately funded asset based
lender. Through a simplified and streamlined process, Fairway America provides
financing solutions for people who are unable or unwilling to get financed by more
traditional lending sources. Every day, Fairway America helps borrowers solve
difficult problems, meet pressing deadlines, or take advantage of excellent
opportunities. While assisting these borrowers, we also enable our investors to earn
above average returns they are unable to get elsewhere. As many brokers and

take advantage of unprecedented market opportunities while helping people who are
otherwise unable to secure financing.

PO Box 10559
Portland, OR 97296-0559
Hi,
I'm looking for a terrific rental agent for our apartment buildings in (mostly) Northwest Portland. You can see them all at bestportlandrentals.com. We have 10 buildings with about 80 units (half in one 40 unit building where our office is) almost all within 12 blocks of NW 23rd. One building is just South of Downtown.
It is part time (Half day, 5 days a week Sun, M,Tu,W, Fr) 9:30-1:30.
Our pay is competitive (depends on experience, but I've been told we pay better than many big rental companies).
We do NOT include an apartment.
I'm really looking for someone who is right for the job and who takes pride and satisfaction in her or his work -- someone who is a responsible, organized, trustworthy, serious person who can work independently. You will not be micromanaged.
This is for the longer haul and IS NOT A TEMPORARY JOB. If you're looking for just to fill till you find your real job, please do not apply.

Duties:
Rent Apartments (of course): Renting apartments means you are a salesperson. You show apartments. You answer calls. You tell people about our apartments so they will come and see them. It's a very one-to-one people oriented kind of thing requiring a postitive attitude and professional appearance.
Bookkeeping: You collect the rents, enter them in Quickbooks software, track late payments, notify tenants who are late, etc.
Customer Service: Tenants have issues (repairs, noise, bugs, ...). You listen to them and figure out what needs to be done.

Management: We have a full-time maintenance person. You will work with him to figure out priorities and schedules. You will also relay tenant requests. You will let the owners (me) know about the bigger stuff and things that require outside electricians, contractors, painters etc. And keep your eyes open to things around the buildings that need taking care of. You will also help our maintenace person with some semi-annual stuff (like getting fire extinguishers recharged, checking smoke detectors and the like).
Light Maintenance:Sometimes we don't have many apartments to rent or things can get slow. If other work is completed, you help with things like cleaning hallways, some light landscaping like weed spraying, and that kind of thing.

Our Company

financing solutions for people who are unable or unwilling to get financed by more
traditional lending sources. Every day, Fairway America helps borrowers solve
difficult problems, meet pressing deadlines, or take advantage of excellent
opportunities. While assisting these borrowers, we also enable our investors to earn
above average returns they are unable to get elsewhere. As many brokers and

take advantage of unprecedented market opportunities while helping people who are
otherwise unable to secure financing.

position requires prior experience in the financial services industry with specific

securitizations, whole loan syndications and other means.
Responsibilities

Monitor and manage cash flows for the company and related investment entities.
Ensure that the company is prepared for its various audits and outside reviews.

10+ years relevant experience in the finance organization of respected financial services company preferably engaged in asset-based lending.

These values are alive at our company and we live them every day while pursuing our purpose of "Honorably doing worthwhile deals that create value, wealth, dignity and superior returns for all parties involved." If a deal is not worthwhile for everyone (our borrowers, investors, referral sources, and Fairway America), we'd rather not do it at all.
For the A-player looking for something special and who can answer "yes" to all of the following questions, this is the opportunity for you.
Do you truly understand real estate valuation, marketability, how it works, what makes it good or bad, stable or not stable, etc.?
Can you use that knowledge to develop models that allow us to make reliable credit decisions and real estate valuations that will hold up over a broad geographic area?
Are you a lender that understands that delicate balance between sales and underwriting?
Do you know how to accurately assess risk and are not afraid to make a decision based on that assessment?
Can you effectively lead and manage others as well as a department?
Can you understand and help develop strategy and also implement and monitor the implementation of tactics?
Are you able to effectively work closely with the sales/origination side of the business while making tough decisions on what credit risks to take and not take?
Are you looking for more than just a job but a genuine career opportunity?
Do you hate office politics as much as we do?
Are you willing to take a position that has significant responsibility and leadership where the results of your decisions will have profound impact on the future success or failure of the organization?
Do you have passion to succeed?
Do you live by the maxim, "Say what you are going to do and do what you've said?"
If you answered "yes" to these questions, we want to meet you!
Our Company
Fairway America is a successful locally owned and privately funded asset based
lender. Through a simplified and streamlined process, Fairway America provides
financing solutions for people who are unable or unwilling to get financed by more
traditional lending sources. Every day, Fairway America helps borrowers solve
difficult problems, meet pressing deadlines, or take advantage of excellent
opportunities. While assisting these borrowers, we also enable our investors to earn
above average returns they are unable to get elsewhere. As many brokers and
lenders have gone out of business or are struggling mightily, our conservative
lending approach has enabled us to weather this financial storm and positioned us to
take advantage of unprecedented market opportunities while helping people who are
otherwise unable to secure financing.
The Position
Fairway is seeking a "Chief Credit Officer" to build out and oversee the credit functions of the business from underwriting to collections. The Chief Credit Officer will report directly to the President. In this capacity, he or she will provide input, recommendations, support, direction, and leadership in the credit, underwriting, lending, and collection policies to grow a quality loan portfolio. The successful candidate will thrive not only in working on current deals in a timely fashion to accurately assess risk but also in developing processes and models to allow us to do so more efficiently for much a larger loan portfolio over a wider geographic area.
Responsibilities
Oversee and manage the credit and collections department which initially consists of 3 people and upon growth would include a team of underwriters, field underwriters, processors, closer/funders, portfolio administrators, and other staff.
Develop credit policy and procedures to ensure risk is in sync with company credit standards relative to returns.
Be the liaison between the Sales and Credit/Underwriting departments in terms of assisting with structuring and selling of loans based on company credit standards, risk ratings, etc.
Direct the Portfolio Manager to ensure that collections remain within company expectations and requirements.
Make or approve credit and underwriting recommendations and decisions on loans in current portfolio as necessary.
Define and create credit and underwriting policies going forward both for loans held servicing retained and for loans originated for sale into the secondary market, if any.
Help develop and implement risk adjusted pricing models for new loans and communicate and implement policies effectively through other company stakeholders.
Review appraisals and internal valuations for accuracy and completeness.
Inspect properties as necessary and make determination of value.
Build and maintain Approved Appraiser and similar 3rd party provider lists related to the credit underwriting function.
Oversee growth of the department as we expand geographically.
Recruit, hire and train underwriters, field underwriters, processors, loan servicing personnel, etc.
Participate in audits with respect to the company's credit and collections policies.
Research new geographic markets that are desirable to enter based on demographics, competitive landscape, and other factors, and build out future infrastructure of Credit/Underwriting/Appraisal processes to support growth.
Qualifications
At Fairway America, your values, abilities, and demonstrable track record of success are generally more important to us than direct experience. That being said, an ideal candidate would have the following:
5-10 years experience in real estate lending, credit analysis and similar training specifically in the areas of commercial mortgage origination, lending, credit analysis, property valuation, and loan servicing
Ability to demonstrate an understanding of consultative selling practices
Conversant in and committed to LEAN, business process improvement (BPI), Six Sigma, or similar process improvement strategies
Some portion of background/experience in asset based lending (hard money, factoring, equipment leasing, etc.) and developing credit policies valuing collateral located in disparate geographies
Experience with managing a collections activity
Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Economics, or Mathematics or a similar field would be a plus
Ability to demonstrate a track record of having effectively managed a team of people

Demonstrable track record of success in related capacities
