Real estate notes should be something that’s in your portfolio. Simply put, a real estate note is a promise to pay back a loan.
Definition: Real estate notes are the loan documents that are
drawn up when you finance the sale of your house or other type of property.
It could be in the form of a mortgage note, land contract, trust deed or a contract for
a deed. What this comes down to is that someone is making payments on that loan to another party.
So often an individual or business secures a loan from a bank to pay
for a piece of real estate. The bank or mortgage lender can, at any
time, sell this note to another lender. This is part of a real
estate agent's job description.

There are many reasons why real estate notes are bought and sold. The owner of the note may
prefer one lump sum, .rather than a set amount of money each month.
The note holder may need the money for a new investment venture, a
family situation or buying a new car. These notes
consist of several factors - They include, down payments, interest rates, payment amount, the term or length of the note, the buyers credit rating and payment history,
etc. Always remember that the type of the property and the condition of the property will
be a large factor into determining the value of the note.
