Ryan Donohue Hello good sir!! I am pumped for initial jump and experience at your local REIA! Initially I began my investing career looking into fix and flips, then shifted my attention to the Notes side of the business. I found that area to be an excellent opportunity to create passive income and strong capital gains. Looking forward to connecting with you, who knows maybe even do a deal together!

@Jessie Chang

I am a note investor from Houston, I have some local contacts for lenders here. I would like to chat with you in more detail about your investments strategy.  Have you ever considered investing in notes, in addition to your current buy and hold strategy?

@Ricardo Murph II

There are a few ways to generate passive income in real estate investing - 1) Landlording (Buy and Hold) and 2) Note investing (purchasing the mortgage note on a house).

A note is simply a promissory note collateralize by a physical property. These debt instruments can be purchased at a discount than the original loan on the property. When an investors purchase these instruments, they become the bank and now the mortgage payments are sent to that investor.

We can chat more offline about the details, but i have found it to be an excellent vehicle to receive passive income with great returns secured by physical real estate.
