Real Estate Note Investing: Using Mortgage Notes to Passively and Massively Increase Your Income

De: Dave Van Horn

Narrado por: Randy Streu

Welcome to the other side of the real estate business! Do more deals, maximize your current portfolio to its full potential, and decrease risk - all through mastering finance. Whether it’s through mortgages, student loans, or credit card debt, nearly all of us (especially real estate investors!) are in the note business. The trouble is, most people are on the other side of it: writing checks to note owners rather than cashing checks as note owners. Understanding how to utilize basic note and financing concepts will help real estate investors like you to:

• Borrow smarter by making debt your friend
• Raise money for your investments easier by understanding and appealing to private investors
• Squeeze more profits out of the deals you’re already doing by utilizing creative offers and multiple financing strategies
• Scale your investing through a passive investment vehicle that is backed by hard real estate without the tenants, termits, or toilets
• Use note investing to pay for expenses like student loans and life insurance, or simply to provide additional cash flow for you into retirement
• Become the bank and begin to use every form of leverage you have available

Whether you’re a wholesaler, rehabber, landlord, or even turnkey investor, listening to this audiobook will help you turn your focus to the “other side” of real estate investing (leverage and finance), so no matter where you are in the real estate business, you can start building sustainable wealth today and for years to come.

Great read

This book got me excited about investing bigger and opened my mind to a whole new level of knowledge it blew my mind.

Very informative

Awesome book, I learned so much will definitely read it again. A very good read

Found useful even as a noobie investor.

The first 10 or so chapters were enlightening as a newer Real Estate investor. Some of the strategies that I was familiar with were fine tuned, and others I hadn't considered were introduced. The actual "note" process was a little advanced for me, however, I have all intentions on revisiting this book once I have more skin in the game.

Solid book! Thank you

Great tips and tricks. Love the stories and nuggets! Thank you for sharing! 5 stars

A Surface-Level Overview: Not for Those Seeking Depth in Note Investing

I purchased this audiobook to gain a more in-depth understanding of note investing, an area I’m not well-versed in. If you’re after a comprehensive guide, this book may disappoint you. While it does offer a solid overview of general real estate investment, it falls short when it comes to the intricacies of note investing. Having read many other books on real estate investing, I was hoping for more specialized insights. The narrative and narration are decent, but if you’re an experienced investor seeking detailed information on note investing, you might want to skip this one.

Great book with lots of fundamental basics.

This was a great listen with lots of fundamental real estate basics. I really enjoyed the stories and case studies. I believe these strategies are very powerful if implemented by clever investors. I do wish there were more actionable steps in the book though. Theory, ideas, and strategies are great, but better is always a pathway that helps promote experience. The actionable steps are what learning investors need to know in order to feel confident in their path. This map leaves many blindspot for novice investors. All in all a recommended title to have. I would absolutely recommend it.

Good primer on notes

Notes pretty much rule our world in one form or another. Good listen. Good primer into the note investing world.

Shows creative ways to structure deals

The book is more of an autobiography with some teaching alongside. Originally I was hoping to get the nuts and bolts of notes. He can kind of get off track at times, but the creativity in his deals is worth the read

Fantastic Read!

Full of great information and very good execution by the story teller to bring this book to life. Easy listen and you will definitely learn something!

Good book but hard to follow along

Great listen lots of basic information, the notes is kinda hard to follow along and doesn’t give you resources to apply
