Rick Allen and Brett Burky are back — and in this episode, they break down the five most common mistakes note sellers make that keep listings from getting bids. These aren't theories. These are real patterns they see on the platform every single week.

    In this episode, we talk about selling mortgage notes the right way — from pricing your asset at a realistic yield to writing a listing description that actually converts. Whether you're dealing with a performing note, a non-performing note, or something in between, these tips will help you close faster and protect your seller reputation on the marketplace.

    What you'll learn:
    ✅ Why pricing to your purchase price kills deals — and how to list by yield instead
    ✅ The single most important document every note listing needs
    ✅ How to write seller comments that tell the story of your loan
    ✅ What happens when you don't disclose known issues (it's not good)
    ✅ Why post-closing follow-through matters more than you think
    ✅ Bonus: The best days of the week to list your mortgage note for sale

  • EP153: Do You Need an LLC to Get Started
    Aug 11 2025

    Here are three actionable takeaways:

    1. Assess Your Goals: Determine how serious you are about note investing. As a hobby, an LLC may not be necessary, but for long-term commitment, it's worth considering.

    2. Evaluate Risk: Gauge your personal risk tolerance. Decide if you'd prefer the peace of mind that comes with protecting your personal assets through an LLC.

    3. Seek Professional Guidance: Always consult with a professional, such as an attorney or tax advisor, for personalized advice.

    Think of forming an LLC not just as a formality, but as an investment in your note investing future. It positions you professionally and shields personal liability while setting the stage for enduring success.
