This ain't your grandma's fix-and-flip guide – we're diving deep into the world of debt, liens, and lender hats! Get ready to have your mind blown! 🤯


    What You'll Learn:

    • Asset Control, Not Ownership: Learn how to control real estate without actually owning it. It's like being the puppet master of properties, pulling the strings without getting your hands dirty (or dealing with tenants!).
    • Debt is Your Asset: Discover why debt is the name of the game in note investing. We're talkin' unpaid principal balance, back payments, late fees – all the good stuff that makes you money while others are stressin' about interest rates.
    • Write-Off Wizardry: Unlike traditional real estate, you can't depreciate notes. BUT... Scott reveals the debt forgiveness secrets and 1099 strategies that'll have your CPA doin' a happy dance. 🕺
    • Licensing Labyrinth (Explained!): Navigating the world of mortgage and debt collector licenses can be a head-scratcher. Scott breaks down which licenses you need (or don't need) to stay legal and profitable.
    • Semi-Active Management FTW: Forget toilets, tenants, and trash! Note investing offers a semi-active management approach. Use licensed servicers and attorneys to handle the heavy lifting while you sit back and collect the rewards. 🏖️

  • 13 Reasons Why You Need To Start Investing in Mortgage Notes
    2025/09/30

    Alright, buckle up buttercups! Ready to ditch the dumpster fires of traditional real estate and finally smell the roses? Scott Carson's servin' up a steaming hot plate of truth with 13 REASONS why you NEED to be knee-deep in mortgage notes. Forget rehab nightmares and tenant tantrums, we're talkin' passive income, baby! 💰


    Here Are A Few of the Reasons Why Mortgage Notes Are the Real Deal (According to Scott Carson):


    • Passive Income Powerhouse: Tired of trading time for dollars? Mortgage notes offer a consistent income stream with minimal active management. It's like having your own personal ATM, but with real estate backing it up! (And fewer pesky withdrawal fees).
    • Double-Digit Returns? Yes, Please! Forget those measly savings accounts. Mortgage notes, especially on the non-performing side, can unlock potentially double-digit annual returns, often outperforming traditional investments. It's time to make your money work harder than you do!
    • Collateral is Queen (or King!): We're not talkin' unsecured loans here. Mortgage notes are backed by real estate, giving you a significant security advantage. If things go south, you have the right to foreclose. Think of it as the ultimate safety net for your investment strategy.
    • Less Competition, More Opportunity: Tired of bidding wars and cutthroat deals? The note investing world has less competition than traditional real estate niches like flipping or wholesaling. Most investors overlook it, which means more prime pickings for YOU, my savvy investor!
    • IRA Supercharger: Unleash the power of your self-directed IRA! Mortgage notes are the perfect investment vehicle for IRAs, allowing you to grow your retirement nest egg with tax-advantaged gains. It's like giving your IRA a rocket booster to the moon!


    So, if you're ready to trade those real estate headaches for a smoother, more profitable path, it's time to dive into the world of mortgage notes. Don't be a sideline sitter!
