. $10,000 isn't very much in the way of a partial, definitely not enough for a full note (though I have seen some $16-18k notes recently), so the partial that you buy would have to come from someone who may have bought the note with intent to just keep it.As Bill mentioned, when you buy a partial, you're buying the front end payment stream.

Definitely start jumping into the community here and feel free to ask any questions related to Real Estate investing!

@Josh Mitchell Congratulations, you are on a good path with multifamily! 

I will definitely check those out. 

As far as investments, basically anywhere that makes sense.The market is definitely hot, and therefore difficult to purchase something that makes sense.

Rents definitely reflect it, you get less in rent because the tenants know that they will pay more to heat.

Being upfront, honestly, and clear communication is definitely at the top of the list.

Got a duplex via 203k, definitely wish I could have found a quad!

Definitely some things I learned that I plan to apply on #5.
