Coming into the next two years of Mr Trump's presidency, how do you think that American real estate will be affected/ adjusted?

Many of the concepts used in notes are applicable to RE deals, vice-versa, rent the note, sell off part, retain a future interest, flip it, buy and refi, borrow against it, partner in any of these areas, use it as collateral on another purchase of RE or other assets, lots of things can be done, but you need to understand what is your interest, your money and using other funds as well as being in the business rather than buying for your own investment purposes (investment isn't earning income by trading actively as a dealer), getting creative will usually put you in a position of brokering.And, failed to mention, the barrier to entry is much higher in notes than RE, knowledge wise, to carry it off on your own.

It doesn't matter if you are buy and hold and they are fix and flip or vice versa.

If Republicans keep the Senate (more likely than not, IMO) and Dems hold the House (very likely, IMO) then as usual no matter who wins the Presidency we will see political gridlock, blaming and nonsense from both sides, as usual.
