2016 has been an interesting year to say the least. With Elections, stock market drops, 0 or even negative interest in our future and general uncertainty, some people feel trepidation on where to invest money while protecting the principal and generating returns that beat inflation and provide for a future.
The real estate industry has long been a safe haven for money but with the 2008 implosion of our economy and the low growth recovery over the past 8 years many people have felt that real estate wasn't safe. With the rise with a rise in values of homes over the past several years, REO property has become harder to find at a good value for an investor.
Notes are a great alternative for investors to look at. A mortgage note is a promissory note secured by a specified mortgage loan; it is a written promise to repay a specified sum of money plus interest at a specified rate and length of time to fulfill the promise. With research and knowledge you can purchase or partner with a company such as SpekSpace Investments to own notes at a discount to the face value of the loan. This allows for an investment that is backed by real estate and with enough equity to cover the principle investment in case of unforeseen market changes. The note provides a yearly cash flow for the investor as well as capitol return in a timely fashion if desired.
SpekSpace Investments finds notes and rehabs them turning notes that are not performing into winners that provide great returns with minimum risk.
