Real Estate Mortgage Note Investing

Did you know that over 50% of mortgages in the USA are owned by individuals and not banks? Nahir Solis does just that. She started a family operated investment firm that buys real estate mortgage notes at a discount of the current balance due, and then works with investors who are looking to purchase mortgage notes already vetted with due diligence and clear for investing.

If you have a self-directed IRA or 401k and have some money sitting around, notes are a good match for this type of investing since you’re not paying taxes on the interest. So it works well for an IRA/401k or other types of protected retirement plans. The returns are good and the downside is protected if you do it right.

Join us as Nahir shares her story of how she got started in real estate mortgage note investing, and how her investment firm is helping other investors looking for solid note investments that yield a higher than average return.
