Consultants who have been in the business since 1978 call Jimmy Napier the father of the private mortgage investment industry. Of course, there were many private investors purchasing discount mortgages at that time, but in 1978, Napier opted to share his knowledge and train others how to make the most of their private mortgage investment opportunities.
To become mortgage investors, Napier’s students needed to know how to find and evaluate private mortgages — many of the same procedures consultants learn today. Master Consultant Rick Jowers was trained by Napier. So were John and Lisa Moren who have mastered Napier’s marketing techniques and share them with other consultants now.
Napier continues offering training programs, both basic and advanced. Jowers says he attends Napier’s four- to six-day advanced training program annually. It is always held in Pensicola and enables potential investors to evaluate potential deals at the symposium and bid for them.
Jimmy Napier must be included in any record of Cash Flow Pioneers for his early efforts to train others to become private mortgage investors and his continuing practice of offering basic and advanced training. Many of his techniques have become fundamental marketing strategies and evaluation methods that have been incorporated into other training programs and are taught to today’s consultants-in-training.
