LJL Funding Now Offers High Yield Income Fund Benefiting from Credit Crunch and High Rate of Foreclosures

San Diego, Calif. -- May 18, 2008 -- LJL Funding, LLC, the Fund Manager of the LJL Secured High Yield Income Fund I, LLC, offers investors an opportunity to invest in (a pool of) real estate secured trust deeds through the LJL Secured High Yield Income Fund I, LLC. Investors deposit money into the trust deed investment Fund, and then the funds are lent to borrowers (some pending foreclosures) that is secured by high-equity first trust deeds naming the Fund as the holder, rather than individual investors. The monthly payments made by the borrowers provide the monthly income to investors.

The LJL Trust Deed Investments offers investors a high-performance investment, managed by seasoned professionals in a fund with assets that are secured by real estate at loan-to value ratios not exceeding 60% at the date of the loan (based upon the lower of the appraised value or the 30-day sale value as determined by a Broker Price Opinion). “Home mortgage defaults and foreclosures are at an all-time high in many areas of the country. Sales are down, even with lower home prices” says Johann de Villiers, President of LJL Funding. “Outstanding investment opportunities come along from time to time; when market forces, timing, and preparedness come together all at once. That time is now. LJL Funding offers qualified investors an opportunity to participate in our High Yield Income Fund taking advantage of these extraordinary circumstances.”

On April 27 2007 the LJL Funding Secured High Yield Income Fund I LLC funded its first mortgage. Since that day the fund has grown substantially in assets and in loans and returned to its investors an investment return in excess of 10.5%. Those investors in the trust deed investment fund selecting a monthly interest payment received their funds every month on the 15th and those who elected to reinvest their interest enjoyed the benefits of compound interest. Two investors even withdrew some of their investment and were redeemed promptly.

The success was accentuated by the fact that the past year was probably one of the most challenging years in the real estate, mortgage, foreclosures, credit and financial markets since the depression in the 1930's.
