From a funding standpoint, you can expect to pay about 2% of the loan amount for a double closing.As far as closing costs, it is important that you have an Escrow agent that is investor-friendly and familiar with the ins and outs of handling a back to back double closing so that it is handled professionally and legally.
Leighann Davis Why do experienced investors JV on notes?
23 July 2018 | 28 replies
They then take those notes and package them with others from similar purchases and sell them along with their analysis to private investment funds.This leaves 45 notes from a package of 1,000 that three professional investment funds, doing intensive analysis by highly trained MBAs, have determined cannot yield even a minimal investment return.These are then offered to the individual investor, who according to those in the industry “with something to sell” (the leftover NPNs and/or “training”) can profit enormously by (1) making them re-performing notes or (2) foreclosing and selling the property for large profits.The pitch from those “with something to sell” is twofold: (1) “There is plenty of meat left on the bone” (actual quote), and (2) if you send the borrower a complete package of all docs, weighing, say, five pounds you will “shock and awe” him into paying on the note.I highly doubt either of these claims have even a micron of validity.The parties with a financial interest in you buying into this will cite isolated instances of great success, never mentioning the all-more-frequent instances of total failure.So at the end of the day the training promoters have collected up to $30,000 per person for their NPN “mentoring”/”coaching” program, the retail asset disposer has made 50% to 100% profit on their inventory, private middlemen have turned a $2,500 investment in a note into $16,000, and my sister-in-law who purchased 5 NPNs over three years ago and has spent large amounts on attorneys, taxes, and brokers has yet to see a penny in return.To paraphrase, if you don’t know who the sucker is in any ultra-high profit promise situation, it’s you.

Your situation depends on your involvement, your entity selection, and lots of other factors that preclude an informed opinion.3) You didn't ask, but I offer that you should not take or act on any legal, regulatory, or financial advice on a free forum and always seek a professional opinion or two.
