I think if you been in the real estate industry anytime longer than a year you slowly see how many irrational people are within the industry.

This is what I think I know:- The borrower can choose to pay off the note at any time (by selling the property or just paying off the loan with other funds), so it is important that the legal balance covers my investment and some profit- The borrower could file bankruptcy (can someone confirm that this will only cause delay, but not jeopardize ultimately collecting the legal balance of the note)- Most of these DOTs will have a rent assignment clause, so I could try to enforce that and collect rents from tenants (essentially manage the property) while I am holding the note and trying to foreclose.

Bet you know who that is don't ya Carlos?
