Franky Juwana Which is better Partial Note Vs Fraction Note ?
1 July 2016 | 5 replies
@Franky Juwana  as a HML in my day and virtually every loan we did was fractional.. your worries are not founded in reality.. vis a vi investing with a broker who his or her business is to provide funding and create fractional interest ( very common in CA).you have the broker who handles or controls the documents.Is it wise to buy a fractional interest over the counter or without knowing the players is not advised to down right financial suicide.. you only do fractionals with the broker you know like and trust.partials ( hypothications) can be done when you do not know the players just be sure the asset will cover the moneyout.

you have a few options.. in high priced west of cascades markets No cash means no luck and no business.now you could venture out to old logging and fishing towns in rural WA... and probably scare something up in the rental realm.. but those would be basically non appreciated assets and really why own them anyway... with no money your 100% leveraged in the rental realm and as such cash flow with be minimal.. so unless you can seriously scale I think its a complete waste of time and energy.If you want in the RE game and have no money best way to get in is to get licensed and go to work for a top producer getting paid to learn.. and learn in a manner that is sustainable.. this no money down stuff can work in some situations but its not a consistant or very productive in our markets here on the west coast.. too much cash competition.. that's the reality.
