Did you know...

 

     Fear of rejection is the single greatest reason people don't make money in the Note Business. By actually going out and inviting rejection, you overcome your fear in stages:

 

1. You get it and it bothers you.

2. You get it and it doesn't bother you.

Quote of the Week

 

Our lives improve only when we take chances - and the first and most difficult risk we can take is to be honest with ourselves.

― Walter Anderson



 President's Corner

       In these dog days of summer, get out there and network. The Note Business would not be where it is today without all the professional networking we did when we first started. I continue to emphasize networking today. Until you've established your note business, you'll need to create your own word-of-mouth. Be your own brand ambassador, touting the benefits of working with your business and showing why people should give you a chance.

       Start your own momentum. A wealth of events, trade shows, and networking groups exist to connect you with other professionals (read referral sources). These initial connections can lead to future business prospects, mentors, and strategic partners with the capacity to help grow your note business.

          Remember, Success Demands Action! Keep on marketing, it’s going to work! TWITA!

Question of the Week

Q - Hi Jeff,

          Thank you for sending along the Note Holders Handbook, very helpful.  After reading much about the Dodd-Frank rules, including the article on your website, I had a few questions that your experience and expertise would be helpful. As someone looking to begin brokering notes, I am trying to size up the universe of potential notes that I can market to.  As long as home sellers understand the new rules, they don't seem to be too restrictive.  My questions:
* Do you think the overall number of new seller financed mortgages will likely decrease going forward because of the rules?
* Do most sellers create the notes in their own names today?
* If a seller creates a note under an entity name and has a balloon, will it be a stumbling block to convince seller to transfer that note into their own name in order to sell that note and comply with rules?
* Are most of the notes you see from sellers that only create 1 note in a 12 month period?
Thank you for your time. I'm about ready to jump into this and will be filling out your forms. I can then use you as the source of investors/buyers. Like your Renatus class said...Tenants, Termites, and Toilets are not really a good thing.  I actually can't believe you take the time with newbie's like myself!  Thank you so much.

A - Hi Mick! 
My answers are below: 
- No, not at all, I do not think the overall number of new seller financed mortgages will decrease going forward because of the rules. 
- Yes, most note sellers create notes in their own names and they will continue to. 
- It will not be a stumbling block to convince seller to transfer that note into their own name because we won’t ask them to do that.  Rather we will most likely just have the seller sign an affidavit confirming adherence to the rules. We really do not think there will be too many sellers trying to get around the rules.  Most of the note holders carry back notes once in their lifetime. 
- Again, yes,  most of the note holders carry back notes once in their lifetime. 
Glad that I am able to be here to assist you as others were when I was just a newbie too. Always try to share the knowledge if it will help someone else avoid the mistakes I made as a newbie. Hope this helps!
