I know it can depend on factors like the borrower’s credit, payment history, and loan terms, but I’m looking for general guidance or ballpark percentages based on your experience.Top Buyers/Companies:Who do you recommend as reputable buyers for these types of notes?

Calling the appraiser to see what you can do to push it up a "C-Level" would be smart before doing any reno also, might only need a few things to make it far more valuable in the eyes of the bank.I've heard of a tactic for figuring out demand, which is to put up a dummy or coming soon listing on facebook marketplace and see the amount of activity you get on it.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Quote from @Xavien Rafael: If you think of your $80K like a game of chess, your money is your king—it’s valuable and needs to be protected.

In new markets, network, use a trusted title company, and consult an attorney for legal guidance.

If you're looking for ongoing, tailored guidance, hiring an advisor or mentor who can work with you through your own path might be more valuable than a course focused on specific strategies.

I really appreciate the insight and guidance, especially about attending meetups and connecting with successful investors in my area.I’ll definitely take your advice to heart and start looking for meetups.

Would appreciate your guidance/thoughts.
