Petitioners provided the borrowers with repayment schedules indicating the amounts of principal and interest within each payment. In about early 1986, Mr. Gandy approached Cary Murray (Murray), then president of the First State Bank of Van, and told him that he had approximately $800,000 that he wanted to invest in real estate loans. Murray and his partner Roy Carty received a loan from petitioners in the amount of $30,000 on June 24, 1986. Closing was conducted by a title company. Murray received a second loan in the amount of $25,000 on October 10, 1986. Closing was conducted by the same title company. Each time, Mrs. Gandy brought the funds in cash to the title company, which in turn gave the borrowers cashier's checks. Murray made payments on these loans by checks made out to "Dennis Gandy", beginning approximately 1 month after receipt of the loan proceeds. Petitioners gave Murray a form each year stating the amount of interest he had paid.Page: Previous 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 Next
