*![Sizzling Steak-1.jpg](https://info.c-loans.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Sizzling%20Steak-1.jpg?width=201&name=Sizzling%20Steak-1.jpg)"Don't sell the steak, sell the s**izzle."* -- Elmer Wheeler,  America's Greatest Salesman

One of the more prolific and successful commercial mortgage brokers in the entire country just entered a commercial loan into [C-Loans.com](http://www.c-loans.com).  In the **Property Description** section, he wrote the description below.  I was so impressed with his work that I just had to blog about it.  I have highlighted his  ***sizzle*** in red.  Is there any question why he is so successful?

"**Nice building** with a day care... This City of X daycare facility is a **full-service** daycare center. Licensed capacity is for 100 children, with an additional 25 for after-school care. This **modern day state-of-the art** facility has a **strong customer base** with a **well-respected and recognized name**. This is a **great facility** with over X sq. ft. located on a **beautiful** 1.04-acre piece of property composing of 6 **fully-furnished** classrooms, commercial kitchen, laundry room, employee break room, child sized dining room and **terrific** divided outside playgrounds. **Premier** childcare services children up to age 12 with an **excellent** child-to-teacher ratio..."

"This facility is located in a **rapidly growing** county. X County is the **heart** of west (state) and forms the western boundary of metropolitan (a major MSA). It is **easily accessed** by Interstate X, US Highways X1, X2, and eight state highways. The county offers visitors and residents alike 495 square miles of **beauty, recreation and history**. The daycare facility itself is located at the demographic and **economic center** of downtown City X and is **readily visible** from the city's **main thoroughfare**.  Commercial land in this area is **becoming scarce**, and as the daycare facility is located within **close proximity** to the downtown square, hospital, numerous medical offices, university and other services."

Oh my goodness, I'm drooling over that good broker's write-up.  Somebody please pass me the steak sauce.  When you enter a loan into [C-Loans.com](http://www.c-loans.com), does your Property Description section enjoy this kind of sizzle?  There's a lesson to be learned here, folks.

Forty new banks have joined C-Loans.com in the past 8 weeks.  It feels like the start of a chariot race.  These banks are [signing up](https://info.c-loans.com/information-on-joining-c-loans) without being solicted.  These bankers are ***ravenous***.  It feels like 2005 all over again.

Have you checked out [CommercialMortgage.com](http://www.commercialmortgage.com) yet?  It offers four times more lenders than C-Loans.com, and it is much easier to enter a deal.

We just spent $30,000 and three months updating *The Blackburne List*, our nationwide list of 2,500 commercial lenders.  If money is tight, you can just buy the region (Western, Central or Eastern) that includes your property for only $39.95.  Each region has at least 750 commercial lenders.
