I've heard about Goldman Sachs and other large institutions buying thousands of loans and holding on to them (punishment for the its role in packaging and selling toxic mortgage-backed securities in the housing meltdown).

These are only available for $2m+ institutional quality assets, however.

Looks like institutions or individuals are moving away from lien investing as overall interest rates are going up on other investments - but the overall winning tax lien rates this year went down to 4.52%.I eliminated the "Struck to County" liens which are the liens nobody bid on and are now held by the county.

Depository institutions (big banks and CUs) and internet lenders are where you want to go to save $37/mo by refinancing to drop your rate 0.125%, or where you want to go when you want a HELOC.

if anybody knows people who are involved with buying and selling non performing and performing notes please list there names by replying to my post, thank yousome other strategies that i've came up with to find notes for sale are researching institutional buyers and sellers for mortgages back securities 

Hoping to find an institution that would be open to a refi loan that is not DOS, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone have a recommendation for institutions that will refinance a rental property under a LLC, for a fixed rate, 25-30yr term?

One of the things I don't necessarily like about it is that I would need to trust that the current owner makes his monthly payment unless the agreement would state I remit the payment to the financial institution. 

If they're concerned I'll lose some or all of the account value at the same time as I default on the loan, they could roll the contribution money into an identical account at their institution where the only investment option is cash (or whatever they consider safe enough).
