Short Term Loan Pays

CM Capital Services continues to search the western states for quality real estate loans that will yield double digit annual returns for our investors.  Just north of Salt Lake City, an experienced Utah team seeks funds to purchase and complete development of a highly desirable residential community.   

Phase One of The Old Farm at Kay’s Creek features 24 distinctive lots zoned for single family homes.  All 24 lots are currently reserved by end buyers.  Our borrower was able to negotiate an extremely favorable purchase price with a local bank looking to get these lots off its balance sheet.   

Proving, yet again, that in this real estate market only the savvy need apply, our borrower is purchasing this high quality development for a fraction of its previous value.  

We are lending 43% of the “as developed” value of this property.  Interest to investors will be paid monthly at an annual rate of 10% to 10.25%.  The loan term is 6 months with two optional 90 day extensions possible.  Take a look at the attached fact sheet for all of the details.


If you are looking for a quality income investment that is short term, then act quickly and call or email us at the numbers below.  Our investment minimum remains $10,000.

Trader Testimonials

"I can not even begin to express my gratitude to Robin for all that she has helped me to accomplish in such a short period of time. When I first called her, I was an emotional mess. I was in a place that so many new and experienced traders can one day find themselves. I was totally "blocked" as Robin would say, frozen, and paralyzed to a point where I was no longer able to take a trade. On my first phone call with her, she put me through her "Scramble" excersize, and the block became something that was a thing of the past. Not only was I able to trade again, but I immediately started to trade profitably again. It doesn't stop there though, because I can truly say that she has helped me to create a strict discipline around so many different aspects of the emotional side of trading. This has allowed me to increase contract size, and increase the size of my account.

As I have continued to work with her, the rules and the discipline have continued to grow. Eventually, I'm positive that she will help to me master myself, and as a result, master the art of trading. The bottom line is this: you have to work hard to get this, but if you are willing to work on yourself, Robin has the right tools, and expertise to help you get to where you want to be. Thank you Robin Dayne! You are the best!"

Staying Positive after the Summertime Doldrums

By Robin Dayne

Well I hope your summer went well and you had a great time with the family while taking a vacation for yourself. Now the kids are back to school and the Bar-BQ’s is winding down. Now is the time to hunker down and get back to serious trading.

As we all know in the summertime the market seems to shift and this one was no exception, it was a rocky road in many cases. Its personality did change and strange movements occurred.

The news up-coming elections and new changes in policy on the horizon have everyone still on edge and our goal has to be to stay positive. This is a lot harder than one would think. This year we felt the added influences from the global effect more than we have in the past and adjusting to the moves proved at time to be a challenge. The lack volume showed in the markets. Stand-in traders taking over trading desks were filled with apprehensions and were less aggressive with smaller size, this can be felt to the average trader.

So, if you have been trading for years you know all this already and my point of this article is to really talk about being positive. The reason is, year after year that summertime tends to bring out negative feelings in general.

There is always an “I can’t wait till it’s over” attitude and rightly so. The markets can be frustrating and slow. Finding long running trends can be scarce and “choppy” is said more in the trading room than in a Chinese kitchen. (BTW – I love Chinese food, don’t you?)

So traders can look at this time and stay frustrated or they can change their thinking if they used this break to their advantage and re-charged. Summertime is always a great time to fine tune strategies, exercise patience, spend time with the family and relax and re-group.

I remember when I was in my late 20’s and was living in Mexico City and I would fly from NYC to Mexico I would look to sit next to interesting people for the long flight. I would look for men who had great shoes and would try to sit next to them. They always had great conversation to share. I was flying one time from New York to Mexico City and found THE shoes and when we got to know each other he told me he was a Wall St. trader and he worked all year long and went to Mexico for 3 months and than back to New York to trade. I knew nothing about trading at the time. Trading for me was harder and more foreign than the Spanish I had to learn at the time.

While I was always good with numbers women really didn’t have aspirations to go into trading in the 70’s. Yet now looking back it must have left en impression as I still remember how “cool” it would be to work 9 months and rest 3.

Anyway I am really getting off the topic – forgive me a senior moment.

OK being positive…it’s so important to not let the summertime markets get you down. Staying positive is very very important and I don’t say that ONLY to feel good it’s down right healthy too.

We all experience stress at some point in our lives and trading combined with stress is unhealthy in so many ways. Your body reacts and works to protect you and when stress happens, you can start to get symptoms. Ulcers, lack of sleep, skin conditions, digestive problems, and a few more I forgot. Bottom line you don’t want stress in your life and being negative can cause stress.

It’s also not a good thing to trade being stressed. Knowing your are stressed in the first part…..and coming up with ways to un-stress can be very rewarding and beneficial.. . . Read More

SP500 & Gold At Crucial Pivot Points
September 1st, 2010


Wednesday was a big session with better than expected manufacturing surging the market 3%. In this article I will do a quick technical take on the current situation for the SP500 and gold as they are both trading at a key resistance level. also its important to know what type of price action we will get in the next 1-2 days so you can have your profit targets or protective stops in place depending on which side of the market you are currently playing.

SPY – SP500 Exchange Traded Fund – 60 Minute Chart

The market is currently in a down trend which means bounces get sold. But if you take a look at the buying volume ratio at the bottom of the chart you will notice that in an uptrend buying surges are the beginning of a rally, and during a downtrend buying surges are the end of a rally. ..Read More

Gold Bullion Likely To Pullback Then Rocket Higher
August 27th, 2010

Back in latter June I forecasted a big top in Gold, mostly due to the 5 wave structures up from the October 2008 lows to June highs, and the 5 waves up from February lows to June highs converging. We then dropped from 1243 at the time of the forecast to $1155, which was one of my potential “A wave down” rally pivots. I expected a counter-trend rally or “B” wave up to 1212-1225. So, all of that worked out pretty well, until we hit $1238. Now, $1238 is a 78% Fibonacci re-tracement of the drop from $1265 to $1155. Normally, a re-tracement in a weaker market or sector is capped at 61.8% or 50%.

The strength of that counter-trend move caused me to go back and review my patterns a few more times. Most of this is pure instinct and experience, but I think $1155 was the low of the correction. It also looks like that was an A B C correction to $1155, and with the strong rally… it means we are likely beginning a new set of 5 waves up from $1155.... Read More

New WS Mantra? Buy Bonds for Capital Gains and Socks for Income?
August 23rd, 2010

Most aggressive money managers missed the performance trade of the year (the buying of bonds) and some money managers are even closing their doors. According to Barron's this week, the PIMCO 25+ year Zero Coupon Treasury (ZROZ) is up 35% versus the Diamonds (DIA), an index which tracks the DOW, is down 6% over the last year. That's the bad news. The good news is that bonds have now become significantly less competition for stocks with Treasury yields reaching in some cases the lowest yields in recorded history.

Anyone buying and holding bonds today is guaranteed to lose money during the next 5 years even if it's just purchasing power and not capital. The only way this country can solve the current debt crisis is through hyper-inflation and that's coming down the road.

Right now the $64 Million question facing the economy is who's right? In most cases I'd say the bonds. These sharply lower yields are telling us we are in for one heck a recession. . . Read More
