If you are a busy professional and a passive investor, you might want to consider adding Mortgage Notes to your portfolio. This asset class is secured by property, provides consistent cash flow, and ability for compounding interest. It can also be easily liquidated.
In this episode, we are joined by Joshua Andrews, a seasoned mortgage note investor with years of experience in the industry. He takes us on a journey from his days as a loan officer to becoming a full-time investor and shares his insights on note investing, specifically non-performing and performing loans. The conversation revolves around the difference between first and second-position loans, how they decided to focus on notes instead of real estate, and the impacts of macroeconomic conditions on notes. Joshua offers a free copy of his book Paper Profits, which delves deeper into note investing methodology. If you're seeking stable, predictable income and diversification in your portfolio, this episode is for you!
