  • Summary

  • Not all real estate investing involves buying properties. Considering the alternatives can save you the headaches of hands-on asset management. On this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan sits down with Chris Seveney, CEO and co-founder of 7E Investments. Chris has a multimillion-dollar asset portfolio, and his background includes the management of construction and rehab of properties worth over $150 million. He also managed an impressive $750 million in new construction, and since 2016, Chris has been in the mortgage note game. Jonathan and Chris discuss their involvement with the BiggerPockets community and its benefits. They cover what took Chris away from buying properties and toward mortgage notes, which leads to a conversation about why new flippers must be careful, sharing some of Chris’s experiences on construction sites. Chris explains the differential between mortgage notes and tax liens and why he finds notes attractive. You’ll hear how to avoid FOMO, why taking action doesn’t always mean buying right away, and what Chris’s first foray into real estate taught him. Finally, Jonathan and Chris dive into purchasing notes, what makes it different from real estate, and the initial blunders Chris made when he began investing. He also shares some thoughtful advice for new investors and why he recommends they understand their investor profiles. Real estate investing takes many forms, and Chris Seveney discovered mortgage notes were a perfect fit for his style.
