  • Episode 22: Broker vs Direct-to-Seller Sourcing
    Jan 15 2026

    Most investors focus on finding deals — but the real leverage is where those deals come from and who controls the flow.

    In this episode, we break down the two primary sourcing paths in note investing — brokers versus direct sellers — and why mastering both (without losing control) is the difference between guessing and building a real pipeline.

    🔍 What you’ll learn:
    ✅ Why brokers can accelerate deals early — and quietly erode margins over time
    ✅ How daisy chains inflate pricing and blind you to real asset risk
    ✅ What direct-to-seller access unlocks: pricing power, transparency, and first-look tapes
    ✅ Why serious sellers only work with buyers who execute — and how trust is earned
    ✅ How tracking tapes, sources, and closes turns sourcing into a repeatable system

  • Episode 21: How to Find Note Sellers
    Jan 13 2026

    Most investors chase properties because that’s what they see — but the real power in real estate has always been owning the debt.

    In this episode, we flip the script on traditional investing and show why the real edge isn’t managing buildings, but controlling the paper behind them — and how the best note investors consistently source deals others never find.

    🔍 What you’ll learn:
    ✅ Why note investors control income streams without tenants, maintenance, or operational headaches
    ✅ Where note deals actually trade — and why waiting for lists puts you behind
    ✅ How small banks, credit unions, and private holders quietly offload problem paper
    ✅ Why daisy chains kill deals — and how to verify you’re truly direct to the seller
    ✅ How consistent outreach and simple tracking turn sourcing into a repeatable system

  • Episode 20: Why Most Investors Overlook This Asset Class
    Jan 8 2026

    Most investors chase properties because that’s what they see — but the real power in real estate has always been owning the debt.

    In this episode, we strip away the noise around rentals and flips and explain why mortgage notes quietly reward investors who learn to think like banks, not consumers.

    🔍 What you’ll learn:
    ✅ Why owning the note means income without tenants, toilets, or renovations
    ✅ How off-market note deals trade quietly — and why most investors never see them
    ✅ Why “non-performing” notes are often discounted opportunities, not broken assets
    ✅ How legal leverage gives note investors more options than landlords ever get
    ✅ Why notes scale faster, travel anywhere, and hold up better in uncertain markets
