Real Estate Investor Meeting On January 13th, 2015, at MAREI’s Month ly Meeting, 32 year industry veter-
an, Eddie Speed will present “The State of the Industry 2015”. See the supporting
data of the Shift in the Industry that points to the Need for Every Real Estate In-
vestor to learn the Note Industry in the next five years.
Industry Shifts
The fact that the smart money, such as Wall Street Hedge Funds, has already
noted the changes and taken appropriate actions for huge profits in the future. In
order to profit big just like the smart money, investors must first familiarize them-
selves with the shift that has taken place in the market.
New changes in government regulations have posed new challenges that must be
counteracted such as rising prices, lack of inventory, falling profit margins, in-
creased competition and increased issues with landlords. Investing in the note
industry comes with a range of benefits spanning high national inventory, discount
buys of up to 70%, less competition, huge investment returns, no issues with land-
lords, exemptions by Dood-Frank, payments from government funds, streams of
passive income to payouts in lump sums.
Tuesday’s Meeting is FREE for member’s and has a cost of $25 at the door or
$15 if you preregister on the calendar of events at MAREI.org.

What is a Note ~ Eddie Speed
Most real estate investors have heard of the “Note Business” but many misunder-stand it while others think that it is completely separate from the real estate busi-ness. The fact is, most real estate investors are in the note business, and they justdon’t know it. The note business is the financing side of the real estate business.
Note Business in the Simplest Terms
The note business is based upon the purchase, sale and assigning of two docu-ments: the promissory note and the mortgage agreement. These two documentsrepresent a promise to pay and a solution for non-payment.
When someone borrows money to purchase real estate, they have to sign an
agreement to promise to pay it back. This agreement also outlines the terms of thepayback. This written promise is not enough to get a loan. This promise must bebacked by collateral of value, which is typically the real estate itself. The collateralagreement pre-authorizes the foreclosure of the property if the debt is not paidaccording to the promissory note.
Move from the Paying End to the Receiving End of the Business
So if you have ever borrowed money from a traditional lender, private or hard-money lender, or even a property seller, you have been in the “note business”!Well, you have been on the paying side of the note business. Why not get on thereceiving end of the note business!
In the receiving end of the note business, you can receive monthly cash flow with-out the headaches and liabilities of being a landlord, lump sum cash payouts, or
even end up with the property at 30 to 40 cents on the dollar!
Acquire Property or Cash Flow for Pennies on the Dollar
Today’s inventory of both performing and non-performing notes is so massive thatit doubles the number of foreclosures since 2008. This supply has prices for notesat historical lows but it will not last forever.
Non-Performing
When you buy a non-performing note on a vacant home, you will acquire a Deedin Lieu or foreclose and end up with the property. You are a real estate investorsimply acquiring property in a different way.
If you buy a non-performing note on an occupied property, you will either modifythe loan to start receiving monthly cash flow, get a Deed in Lieu or foreclose.
Performing
When you purchase a performing note, you acquire long term, real estate backed,monthly cash flow. Today, these assets can be purchased for 60 cents on thedollar. That is an unbelievably good deal. No land lording, no hassles, just auto-matic monthly deposits into your account.
Note = Promissory Note = IOU (I Owe You)
Mortgage = Collateral Agreement = Foreclosure Agreement

Where do we find houses? ~ Joseph Varnadore/NoteSchool
What should the investor do?
Today more and more people are attracted to real estate and naturally by extension, real estate investment associations andclubs. Many of these investors are new or “newbie” investors who are easily overwhelmed with information and constantlysearch for the best way to start. They suffer from paralysis of analysis.
The instructors at NoteSchool each have dozens of years of experience in the real estate investment space. This includesbuying real property and mortgage-backed notes. In this article we will use that insight to cut through the “noise” so that youcan get started making money in real estate investments by breaking this industry down to the very simple basics.
Two Ways to Acquire Real Estate
As an investor, you can acquire real property by purchasing the property outright or by purchasing the mortgage-
backedsecurity and then acquiring the property. Several things will determine which of these two approaches you use. So let’s take
a bird’s eye view of these approaches.
Acquire Real Property by Purchasing the Property Outright
In this approach you are directly acquiring the Deed to the property. The goal here obviously is to acquire the property at a
discount, in fact the greater the discount the higher the profit. This requires a motivated seller. This type of acquisition is ei-
ther through a voluntary sale or a legally enforced sale.
Voluntary: A voluntary sale would be simply purchasing the property from a motivated owner/seller. These owner/sellers
include:
Individual motivated property owners MLS listed sales
Disenchanted landlords Owners of inherited property
Property in probate Bank and other lender owned property (REO property)
Bank or other lender approved sales (short sales)
The supply of these types of properties has drastically dwindled in the past year. In fact, RealtyTrac reports that Short Sales
have dropped in half in just the past 8 months. In that same time period, REO sales have dropped 25%. It should be noted
that the price of these types of acquisitions has gone way up to the point where even seasoned individual investors simply
can’t afford to buy and make a decent profit.
Involuntary: In today’s economy, most investors acquire the property through a legally enforced sale. This means that the
property owner was negligent on some legally required payment and the party who is suffering the delinquency has filed a

legal action for restitution. That’s a fancy way of saying “it’s time to pay the piper”.
These owner/sellers include those with homes sold at Auction Foreclosure Sale
for Non-Payment of
IRS Taxes Property Taxes (Tax Deed Sales) HOA fees
Super Lien 1st Mortgage Junior Liens
These types of acquisitions are competitive not only with local investors but large
institutional investors such as Blackstone and other hedge funds, private equity
firms and real estate investment trusts.
Acquire Real Property by Purchasing the Mortgage-Backed Security
In this approach you are acquiring the Deed to the property by purchasing the
underlying mortgage debt. The goal here, as always, is to acquire the property at
a discount. As stated previously; the greater the discount the higher the profit. This
type of acquisition is also through a voluntary sale or a legally enforced sale.
Voluntary A voluntary sale for this acquisition type would be a relief for the prop-
erty owner. These owners, looking to get out from under the enormous debt load
would Sign Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure or a Loan Modification.
A Deed in Lieu allows the debtor to simply walk away from the problem. In fact,right now, the Debt Forgiveness Act allows them to walk away with out any federal
tax ramifications. A loan modification allows the qualified homeowner to start mak-
ing payments once again but on an adjusted loan schedule that they can afford
and the debtor agrees to.
Involuntary An involuntary sale for this acquisition type would be done by simply
enforcing the legal documents that the property owner has already agreed to. This
acquisition means the investor simply Enforces the Mortgage or Deed of Trust.
Owners who simply got tired of waiting for the bank to enforce the mortgage have
already vacated many of these properties. The neighbors, city and local county
government are happy to see these properties acquired and turned into owner
occupied homes once again.
Discount Your Way to Higher Profits
Statistics show that:
REO and Short Sale acquisitions are being purchased at about 30% discount
Non-performing mortgage-backed notes are being acquired at about 70%
discount
This is where the market is today. In fact, Bloomberg just interviewed 8 of the top
financial managers in the world. These top investors run companies that have
unlimited funds and virtually every investment asset in the entire worldwide spec-
trum and yet US non-performing mortgage backed notes was a highly recom-
mended favorite for 2014.
In addition, because the cost of entry level is significantly lower for acquiring mort-
gage backed notes, investors are finding that they don’t have to go into debt with a
high interest acquisition loan such as a hard money loan. In fact, over the past few
years we trained investors who were able to acquire properties for less than
$5000 (five thousand dollars-not a typo!).

Why Would a Seasoned Real Estate Investor
Need to Be in the Mortgage Backed
Note Business? ~ Joseph Varnadore/NoteSchool
As a seasoned real estate investor you understand that you make your money when you buy and that is why you need to
buy at a discount. The most common “discount buying” strategies are:
Short Sale
Foreclosure Sale
REO Property
Tax Deed Sale
Probate Sale
You, of course, realize the profit from your discount buy when you apply your pre -planned exit strategy. The most common
exit strategies are
Wholesale
Retail (fix and resell)
Fix and Rent
Lease Option
New government regulations have forever changed today’s real estate market. The repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act, and the
implementation of the Dodd-Frank and SAFE Acts have forced lenders, buyers and investors to adjust.
To simply continue to pursue the above discount buying strategies and exit strategies will severely limit your in-

vestment opportunity and profit margins.
These adjustments have created both problems and opportunities. The problems
the seasoned investor faces are:
Lack of Inventory
Rising Prices
Increased Competition
Falling Profit Margins
Increased Landlord Issues
The opportunities that have been created are primarily in the finance side of the
real estate business. The finance side of the business is the note industry. This is
an opportunity that the seasoned investor can easily add to their current skill set
because the investment philosophy is the same: buy at a discount with a pre-
planned exit strategy.
The opportunity of adding this part of the real estate industry to your existing busi-
ness is:
Record high national inventory
Up to 70% discount buys
Way less competition
Huge returns on investment
No landlord issues
Dodd-Frank exemptions
Government funds can pay you
Passive income streams
Lump sum payouts
Take a look at this case study that will yield our very seasoned REO specialist student 322% in one year, on one deal!
Our student purchased an $85,725 non-preforming note for $10,862. Now that’s a
discount. In addition he had to pay off some other liens, which totaled about
$1500.
Since the owner was still living in the property and wanted to stay, our student
modified the $85,725, 8.84% loan to a $52,000, 7.75% loan. This reduced the
property owner’s payment from $617 per month to $358 per month.
As a part of this debt reduction and loan modification, they applied to the hardest
hit funds. In exchange for forgiving debt and modifying loans, these special funds
pay up to a certain amount back to the lender. In this case, our student is receiv-
ing a check for $30,000 from the state!
The raw numbers:
Paid out $12, 362
Received $30,000 plus a $2000 reinstatement fee
Will also receive $358 per month for 30 years
By the way, this investor purchased 30 deals in his first year with Note
School..

Recently Released Economic News
Will Affect You and Your BUSINESS
All the changes in the national economy and real estate market indicate one clear thing; investors are confused. They need
guidance and a strong network around them. That is why we compiled data and statistics to present at the NaREIA Mid -Year
event in Denver in June.
Since that event, even more data continues to prove our point:
Nobel Laureate on Economics, Robert Shiller, says that stocks have been more expensive only three times in the lastcentury: 1920’s, late 1990’s and the prelude to the 2007 crisis,
2013 was the worst year in history for the Bond Market,
Mutual Fund giant, Vanguard, says that IRA’s are being used as money market parking lots.
This shows that investors are weary of the stock market, afraid of the bond market and are sitting in cash -like positions. Ex-
pect these investors to turn their focus toward “value buys”: real estate and real estate notes.
May no mistake; these new investors will change the market! How well you position yourself for these changes will deter-
mine how well you do (or don’t do). Think about how the hedge funds changed the REO and rental market over the past 2
years.
Here are some projections:
Large cash buyers (hedge funds) will exit single-family real estate and focus on selling rent-backed securities and pur-
chasing large pools of non-performing loans
New “value-seeking” cash investors will be looking for turn-key investments
Millennials are not ready to move out of Mom and Dad’s house just yet and when they do, they will rent not buy
Re-performing notes will continue to be priced historically low as hedge funds and private equity firms buy non-
performing notes and re-sell them after modifying the loans.
REO inventory will have spurts of growth but ultimately continue to shrink as banks liquidate their non-performing assets
through note sales to quickly meet new government regulations
Non-
performing note inventory levels will remain mostly unchanged as shadow inventory is leaked into the market coun-tering the sale of these notes
Short sales will continue to fade unless Congress retroactively reinstates the Mortgage Debt Forgiveness Act

Helping People Stay
in Their Homes
Ms. Solomon was desperately trying to help her father. She became the financialand medical advocate for him since her mothers passing in 2011. Her father wasin poor health and simply unable to afford the mortgage on the property that heand his wife had shared. Letters to the bank went unanswered and the future wasuncertain.
The property value had dropped on their Florida home to $60,000; far less thanthe $110,000 that was owed. Ms. Solomon was desperate to work with the bankbut wasn’t able to find anyone who could help her. Her goal was very clear: shewanted to make a short payoff so that she could move into the house and providefor her ailing father.
The note and mortgage was sold by the bank and eventually purchased for$35,000 by NoteSchool students, TJ and Rick. These business partners studiedthe file and recognized that the father and daughter were emotionally attached tothe property. They simply wanted someone to listen to them and to work out asolution. TJ and Rick did just that.
TJ and Rick were able to quickly present 2 options for Ms. Solomon:
Option 1: A short payoff of $55,000.
Option 2: $35,000 payoff with a new $35,000 loan.
If she chose Option 1, TJ and Rick were willing to forgive 50% of the loan. In addi-tion, they would forgive all past due payments and waive their deficiency clause.
If she chose Option 2, they would reduce the balance of the loan to $35,000. Theywould also reduce the interest rate to 5%, shorten the payoff to 72 and lower theirpayment to $564 per month.
Ms. Solomon chose Option 1. This lingering problem was solved very quickly onceTJ and Rick owned the note. Ms. Solomon was able to keep her father in his com-fortable and familiar surroundings without the fear of losing the home.
The solution to this real estate crisis is the entrepreneur. Unlike big lenders, entre-preneurs such as note buyers have the ability to make quick and nimble decisions.These quick decisions can make the difference between somebody remaining intheir home or having to move out.
