Seeking note investing mentor
Hi all, I’m a newbie and interested in shadowing a note investor to see if this is something I’d like to get into. I’ve been reading Dave Ban Horn’s book called Note Investing, and I’d prob start in performing notes (when he said this is something his 85-year old mother does I thought yes! Start here!) I’m a quick start and learner.
Thanks,
Mia

First - be sure to learn the financial calculator. Bill Tan from LAREIA teaches a course that I've taken and recommend.
Second - I also recommend Tracy Z and Fred Rewey's group. Their education also includes the financial calculator. You might also check out the Note Inc Podcast that Czarina Harris created. Start with episode #1 and work your way through. The first set of episodes is laid out like a notes course. Good education, and entertaining.
Third - I recommend to everyone that they purchase one performing whole note or partial before they dive into other pursuits. It's a great way to learn while you earn. You can use a platform like Paperstac to practice underwriting.
Finally - Attend a conference for the networking and the education. Paper Source is happening next month. There will be others later this year.
