Consulting Services for Chattel Finance Lenders

If you are involved, or about to be, in chattel finance, either as an outside depository or non depository institution, or even as a captive finance company engaged in seller financing, we have the expertise and history to help guide your efforts in achieving the goals your organization is seeking.
We serve the following industries:

  • Manufactured Housing
  • Recreational Vehicle
  • Specialty Vehicle and Trailer
  • Banks and Credit Unions

Areas of Practice:

  • Strategic Solutions for Legal and Compliance Issues
  • Development of Employee Training Programs
  • Strategic Planning for Growth and Profitability
  • Training and Planning for Raising Additional Lending Capital for non depositories
  • Audits for Compliance and Security for non depositories
  • Strategic Planning for Exit Issues

We also can provide personnel for " third party solutions" when desirable.

The principals of Rishel Consulting Group are the nationally recognized experts on chattel financing in the areas of licensure for non depositories, the constantly changing issues of compliance, the changes caused by the Dodd-Frank Act, operational and portfolio profitability issues, and the solutions necessary for sustainability. Our founder serves on a national Task Force on Dodd-Frank, and we retain some of the finest regulatory attorneys in the country. 

Several of our Senior Consultants, were years ahead of others in warning of the dangers of the manufactured housing lending practices of the late 1980s and the 1990s, with our founder going so far as to identify six lenders in print as "rattlesnakes in our midst". Later he traveled the country warning about the dangers being created by lending practices in real estate lending as early as 2002 to banking groups all over the United States.

Our principals have originated, serviced and managed multi million dollar loan portfolios that have never lost any individual investor or institutional investor a single dime, and we have been doing this since 1975. Our repossession rates are consistently lower, and our recovery rates consistently higher than industry averages - normally by large margins.

Our knowledge and our expertise  is our advantage, and it can be yours as well.
