Real Estate Investor Meeting

On January 13th, 2015, at MAREI’s Monthly 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 just don’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 documents represent 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 the payback. This written promise is not enough to get a loan. This promise must be backed by collateral of value, which is typically the real estate itself. The collateral agreement pre-authorizes the foreclosure of the property if the debt is not paid according 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 the receiving 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 that it doubles the number of foreclosures since 2008. This supply has prices for notes at 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 Deed in Lieu or foreclose and end up with the property. You are a real estate investor simply acquiring property in a different way.

If you buy a non-performing note on an occupied property, you will either modify the 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 the dollar. 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
