“Nobody’s a natural. You work hard to get good and then work to get better. It’s hard to stay on top.”       – Paul Coffey



 President's Corner

       Don’t let summer months slow you down.  In going over my personal statistics, after a busy spring, summer typically means a slowdown in the note business for me. And so summer plans often include well-deserved time off, a vacation or extra time with family and friends. But don’t put away your note business hat for the whole season. Summer is a great time to get business!  Here are some things you can do to keep the deals coming across your desk. Follow up with past Note Holders that have not sold you their note and let them know you are still interested.  Follow up with the note holders who have sold you a partial and see if they would like to sell more or the rest of their note.  Get involved in local community events or volunteer to meet new people and network. They do not necessarily need to be real estate events, you never know who is holding a note! Remember, Success Demands Action! Keep on marketing, it’s going to work! TWITA!

Low Appraisal Options

        One of the three major contingencies of any note purchase transaction is the value of the collateral coming in for at least what the property sold for.  Low appraisals can happen in any marketplace: hot, cold or neutral.  As Note Professionals we do have some options when an appraisal comes in low...

Question of the Week

Q - Hi Jeff,

          Question for you, when someone sells a property and holds the trust deed does it matter that they are also holding the title insurance or does it have to be from the buyer?  Also what happens when the buyer has a lower credit score than 650 - lets say between 550-600 (this is on the 72K Minneapolis note) How much will the amount being offered go down? Would it even be an option for them to get money? Thank you for your help!                                   ~ Larry


A - Hi Larry!

          Thanks for the email! There are two kinds of title insurance - Lenders or Mortgagee title insurance that protects the note holder and Owners or Mortgagors title insurance that protects the buyer of the property and payor on the note.  If there is no title insurance at all we will get it.  If there is only an existing Owners policy it will be quicker for us to get a Mortgagees policy through the same title company AND if there are already both an Owners and Mortgagees (or just a Mortgagees) that makes it easier and a bit cheaper as well.  YES!!! We give prices based on best possible scenario (for notes secured by residential properties 650+ credit, an appraisal for at least the sales price and clean and clear title) So, if the credit comes in lower or the appraisal isn't acceptable the price will be lowered.  I have closed on notes with as low as a 402 credit score, it just depends if the note seller needs the money bad enough and will take the discount. There is no cut and dry percentage that the price will go down, it just depends.  Hope this helps! TWITA!              ~ Jeff
