Our Formal Bios
Marcella Silva, Certified Land Banking Consultant, Velur Enterprises, Inc.
Marcella Silva was born and raised in the rural mountains of Northern New Mexico. Her parents were both hard-working business people and savvy investors. Throughout Marcella’s life her parents would become a great influence by investing their earnings in land and selling it for profit.
After earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Management Information Systems from the University of New Mexico, and because of her collegiate achievements, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) invited Marcella to take a full-time position as a Software Engineer in Livermore, California.
In 2007, after reviewing her 401(k) statement, she began a quest for a real estate investment that would provide the returns she desired for a secure retirement. Marcella eventually crossed paths with Velur Enterprises, Inc. and their exclusive land banking opportunity.
In March 2008, Marcella purchased her first land investment using the funds from her 401(k) via a self-directed IRA. Marcella has had tremendous success with her investment and found a passion in land banking. Marcella joined Velur Enterprises, Inc. in 2008, following her desire to share this opportunity and help others realize the gains that have been experienced by many throughout history, including her own.
In December 2010, after a successful eight-year career at Lawrence Livermore National Lab Marcella decided to follow her passion and become a full-time land banker. This came during the worst financial meltdown our country has seen in decades. Since then, Marcella has created a successful career helping others build wealth through land banking.
Today Marcella is an experienced and sought after public speaker and certified land banking consultant. Marcella is passionate about giving her listeners the chance to achieve financial independence by using Velur’s proven, land selection process. Through her accumulated land banking knowledge and success, Marcella now manages and mentors a team of land banking consultants here in the Bay Area. Marcella works closely with her mentor, the COO and co-owner of Velur Real Estate Services, Inc., who is a great influence and extremely successful expert in the field of land banking.
Rick Silva, Entrepreneur, and Landbanking Expert Investor
Raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, Rick Silva is no stranger to perfect weather, a good education, and hard work. As an entrepreneur and investor, Rick brings it 150% as he wows his clients and those he engages with tenacity and the knowledge of what has been self-taught.
In 1998, Rick Silva was a recruiter in the high-tech industry. Riding a wave of fame and fortune in the .com world, Rick became a millionaire (on paper), at age 29. By age 31, he lost his fortune due to the market crash. Less than 10 years later, Rick went through a divorce, and suffered financial difficulties.
During the last 14 years, Rick has been successful at earning his way; although, not attaining the wealth that he desired. Unbeknownst to him, his economic outlook would transform into a lucrative lifetime investment.
Nearly 5 years ago, Rick met Marcella Trujillo, Land Banking Specialist, in one of his networking groups. Falling in love, Marcella said, “Yes!” to Rick’s proposal in the presence of friends. Marcella’s career in land investing caused cynicism for Rick who thought that type of strategy worked only for the affluent. By seeing for himself how dirt can bring wealth to a Regular Joe, Rick knew that this was the right investment stream for him.
Rick Silva, Entrepreneur, and a Landbanking expert investor shares his personal growth and experiences, while Marcella specializes in land banking, the nuances of land investing, the advantages of diversifying old money into land investments, and how wisely they both invest in land. Rick feels that by speaking to and encouraging others to invest, he might be helping others to find the wealth that, perhaps, they were destined for.
