SALT LAKE CITY, July 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Dwight Shane Baldwin, CEO of SilverLeaf Financial (http://www.silverleaf-financial.com/), recently spoke about the proven SilverLeaf value proposition that begins with identifying under-performing loans that display the potential to achieve a targeted return on investment.

Prior to making a bid to purchase pools from within an FDIC offering, the SilverLeaf Financial team thoroughly underwrites and carefully analyzes each loan in order to determine the value in a potential acquisition. Pools that do not fit the SilverLeaf criteria for profitability are not bid upon. Those pools that are selected and bid upon for purchase have an associated plan of action ready for implementation. This ensures prompt liquidation once the bid award is obtained. Dwight Shane Baldwin and the SilverLeaf team of experts carry a reputation for their exceptional evaluation and assessment prowess, including the capacity to efficiently and effectively complete the workout process.

When asked about current pricing in the market, Baldwin said, "I think we will see pricing come down, because there is so much on the market. I believe we will be able to buy loans at better prices than we've seen historically. We are also seeing more non-recourse commercial loans being sold this quarter opposed to recourse loans, as well as more and more loans secured by retail assets."

Dwight Shane Baldwin applies years of entrepreneurial success to his position as founder and CEO of private equity firm SilverLeaf Financial.
