AVENTURA, Fla. — Green residential mortgage lending network myEnergyLoan founder and president Jeff Cole will present “Green Lending – Financing the Shift” as a sponsor of mXpo.net 2009 Virtual Mortgage Tradeshow (mXpo.net) on October 8, 2009. mXpo.net is the first mortgage industry-sponsored virtual tradeshow, conference and educational content event being conducted October 7 – 8, just days before the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) annual conference.

Launched in 2005, myEnergyLoan is a network of lenders and mortgage brokers that come together as a network of fair financial service providers to get green done, today. myEnergyLoan provides green real estate buyers and investors benefits including: funds to make energy efficient upgrades; an efficiency credit to reduce closing costs; the opportunity to lower borrower’s long term interest rate; reduced monthly utility bills; a myEnergyLoan Efficiency Credit certificate validation; and a trained network of lenders.

“The mXpo.net virtual tradeshow value proposition is absolutely congruent with the mission of myEnergyLoan, which is considered ‘Deep Green’ by its clients and investors,” said myEnergyLoan president Jeff Cole. “The virtual tradeshow option is the ultimate example of location efficiency and sponsorship of this event provides us with the opportunity to practically support our core values of sustainable enterprise.”

“Not only does a virtual environment save gas, expense and the excruciating hassle of travel, but its web-based platform ensures that the format and content lingers, extending the value of participation well beyond the two-day event,” he added

mXpo.net offers mortgage professionals from wholesale and retail originators and loan officers, loan processors and back office personnel, executives and owners, to mortgage technology and services vendors the opportunity to congregate via an Internet portal, eliminating costly travel and lodging expenses, while ensuring a concentrated and productive educational experience.

“myEnergyLoan fits the profile of an ideal early adopter of the mXpo.net virtual tradeshow environment because of its focus on financing low-impact, energy-conscious residential development and improvement,” said mXpo.net 2009 event director Camilla Dominguez. “Tomorrow’s mortgage industry leaders are tuned in to new, more efficient channels for education, networking and career development, and are sensitive to ‘green initiatives,’ as demonstrated by myEnergyLoan.”

mXpo.net 2009 is being held during the mortgage industry’s busiest tradeshow season as an alternative for mortgage professionals making decisions about the best use of travel and education budgets. Through September 15, mXpo.net 2009 attendees pay only $99 for full-access to the two-day event.

Energy Efficient Mortgage programs are popping up all over the place and with good reason.  There are now more myEnergyLoan providers than ever; with 31 states currently being served by either a local myEnergyLoan provider or a National myEnergyLoan provider.

Green loans are loans that take into consideration the impact made by increased energy efficiency.  myEnergyLoan helps them do that.  And look at the impact that myEnergyLoan providers make in the markets they serve:

FOUR IMPORTANT IMPACT ZONES:

Greater buying power for the average homeowner.

Positive impact on health and lower associated health expenses.

Reduced reliance on foriegn oil.

Positive impact on our national security.

It’s not a stretch to say that all of these impacts are being made each and every time you increase the efficiency of your building.  It’s sort of a “no-brainer” when you consider the overwhelming evidence that green building is the way to go.  Why would you even consider not following through on the decision to improve your personal energy consumption now that you know just some of the positive impacts you can make when you do so?

Fossil-fuel market capitalization: That’s why.  There is so much resistance to you being able to execute a solid decision of investing in energy efficiency and renewable energy usage.  Check it out and you will see that the 4 US megabanks are HEAVILY invested in fossil fuel markets and to such a degree that they aren’t likely to dismiss this as their reality.  They don’t know what to do – but what they should do is simple - they should shift their resources and apply their fossil fuel energy investments to their highest and best use:  Financing the shift to a Renewable Energy Economy. 

Why did we bail out all those banks and insurance companies again?  Should we now expect them to serve our interests when they simply have not yet figured out how to separate us from our money?  Or should we wait until they figure out how to spin it so we think it’s a grand idea that they came up with?  Certainly, the 4 US megabanks have said they have energy efficient mortgage programs, but they aren’t the ones supporting the proliferation of green buildings in local markets.   Just ask ANYBODY who has financed a green building – ever! 

No, those somewhat silent heroes who are supporting green building investment are either currently myEnergyLoan providers or soon will be.  By virtue of tying into the MEL program a lender or mortgage broker can become Energy Star Mortgage Partners and Fair Mortgage Collaborative approved lenders.  The MEL provider gets the real stamp(s) of approval.  myEnergyLoan providers have banded together to finance your green buildings.  they have adopted a fair standard to save you money.  They all agree to not write high risk loans.  They all agree that they can afford to rebate money to you if you increase the energy efficiency in your home of commercial building.  They allow myEnergyLoan LLC to certify that they do so – voluntarily – according to the MEL Efficiency Credit scale.  It works virtually every time, with virtually any loan product.  All banks can do this too, even the 4 megabanks, and we can help them.

We need more myEnergyLoan providers and we currently NEED three providers in ILLINOIS, NEW YORK, MICHIGAN, NORTH CAROLINA, FLORIDA and OHIO. Call Jeff Cole and increase your energy efficient mortgage business or save money with an Energy Efficient Mortgage today with myEnergyLoan.  check out www.myenergyloan.com, www.greenloanblog.com, www.myenergyloan.wordpress.com.

Green loans are loans that take into consideration the impact made by increased energy efficiency.  Take a look at these three:

The impacts on greater buying power for the average homeowner; the impact on health and lower associated health expenses; the reduced reliance on foriegn oil; the positive impact on our national security.

It’s not a stretch to say any of these impacts are being made everytime you improve the efficiency of your building.  Why would you even consider not making these impacts now that you know are able to make them?

myEnergyLoan providers have banded together to financy your green buildings.  They all agree to not write high risk loans.  They all agree that they can afford to rebate money to you if you increase the energy efficiency in your home of commercial building.  myEnergyLoan LLC certifies it and even provides a scale that determines the reward.

Green for Green

We are delighted to have been a major part of Anna Prior’s 8/24/2009 personal property article in the Wall Street Journal entitled “Green for Green.”  Anna sourced us extensively and we applaud yesterday’s piece as it provides a solid primer for the green real estate finance programs that exist today.  While far from comprehensive, this piece is a must read for all parties interested in Energy Efficient Mortgage and Green Real Estate Investment. 

myEnergyLoan is discussed in the Cutting Your Rate section of the article and www.myenergyloan.com is clearly the most innovative and authentic incentive program listed in the article.  As our readers know, www.myenergyloan.com is the leading website and clearinghouse for the EEM, the EIM and green real estate financing in general.

Before exploding from your frustration with green loans, contact the green loan company that wrote the book on green lending and energy efficient mortgages.

We encourage you to search the web and search your local market for a better energy efficient mortgage program than myEnergyLoan.  The big banks are simply greenwashing in most cases; as if they are intentionally not participating in financing the shift to an EcoEconomy.

Why?  We think it’s because bank relationships with mortgage clients are inherently adversarial because the bank, clearly the party with the advantage in the relationship, is attempting to sell you the very highest interest rate possible.  They make more when you lose more…how is that client centered?  How is that community oriented?  How is that ethical?

Why do we stand for it?  Because they control our money and our economy as a result.  How many hard-working Americans actually wanted the current administration to bail all of these banks out anyway?  We had (have) no choice in the matter.

Things are out of control and we are sitting ducks because we are working so hard trying to keep our jobs that we are unavailable to protest.  Who can spend time protesting when we are just trying to hang on? 

We are screwed royally; especially by the large mega banks and the government is calling the shots with unbridled passion to save them – NOT US! 

myEnergyLoan helps, but the company needs your support.  Check MEL out online at www.myenergyloan.com.
