Jumping in the Note business

Hi  all ,

     I'm a newbie to note investing.  Done very exhaustive research on the subject   and  would love to hear your experience  when you  first  started baying your first Note.   (what, how, where)

At  the moment  I have 20k - 30k to deploy

     This  is  my goal : buy my first note  and flip it or get  a  loan( based on that Note) to by my next  Note.

What  you guys  think  I  should  go first  Performing Note  or  Non-performing.   My goal  is  to Recapitalize  ASAP.  and eventually reach my goal  of  6 Performing Notes  for  cash flow.  And continue growing my Note portfolio.

 it be  a great idea to find a partner someone trustworthy to  see how  this  is  done  hands on.  I know  I have lots  to learn but  not going  to sit  and just  watch  

I'm  ready to  "Jump in the Note Investing business"

   Would  love  to hear  how  someone  did  just  that. 

Appreciate all your comments

Vendor List

Inventory

www.fciexchange.com – the “original” trading platform, linked to their servicing arm so it usually has inventory.

www.notesdirect.com – Note School site, has some deals, not sure if open to public yet.

www.Debtx.com – Mostly pools of assets on this site, signup fee, big players at this site (newbies proceed with caution.)

Note Education

Note School http://noteschool.com/ This is the most extensive education available, the cost is on the higher end. Note School was created by Eddie Speed, who has been in the space for more than 30 years. Without a doubt, this is the “Harvard” of the note space.

We Close Notes - http://weclosenotes.com/ This is lead by Scott Carson. Scott offers several training options and Facebook Live updates.

PPR Note Co – This one is lead by another industry influencer, Dave Van Horn. You can do everything from learn how to invest in notes, to participate in his fund.
