Purchasing a note in Ch. 13 bankruptcy
Hi,
I'm looking into purchasing a second lien note where the borrower is in Ch. 13 bankruptcy. There's $80K in arrears and $100K principal owed. The seller of the note is asking for $85K. Under Ch. 13, the borrower will pay back the $80K arrears over 5 years. I start getting payment on the $100K principal and interest after the five years. Is this a good buy? It seems like I'll be making zero interest in the first 5 years which doesn't seem like a good strategy. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!
