Foundations of Note Investing

5 lessons31 min

Build on the basics — understand the full note investing business, its history, asset types, strategies, and how to set up your company to start buying notes.

Foundations covers the operational infrastructure every note investor needs before the first deal: business entity formation, capital deployment strategy, secondary-market vocabulary, and how to read a data tape.

This is also where the four-track due diligence framework gets taught — collateral, borrower, title, and loan documents. Skipping any track introduces risk that surfaces at resolution time. The module ends with you able to evaluate a seller's broker-versus-direct posture and pick the channels that fit your capital base.
