Real Estate Properties or Notes?

[Martin Sterling]

Which would you say is better for a Buy and Hold strategy or Wholesaling, Properties or Notes? What do you think are the pros and cons of each?

I'm just starting out and the way I see it, Notes seem to have more flexible exit strategies. In addition, buy buying the note I could foreclose and take the home at a much deeper discount than I could've got negotiating with the homeowner or bank. Granted, depending on the state, foreclosure can be time consuming but it can still be profitable.

@Martin Sterling Good for you if you are getting great deals on Notes, I think the market is overheated, I can often buy an REO for the price of a note, and not have to foreclose. Just my .02
