From Contractor to Note Investor – Anyone Else Made the Switch?

Melinda Eilts
Posted

Hi all,
I’ve been seeing more contractors and active real estate operators transition into note investing to generate passive income without being on the job site.

Has anyone here made that transition themselves? If so, what challenges or benefits did you notice compared to active real estate investing?

Hey @Melinda Eilts I did not see anything on your profile, so I dont know where you are, but why cant you do both and all of the above??

Keep being a contractor, buy some notes with profits. Maybe buy some houses and owner finance them to the buyer after rehab. That creates notes. Buy for 100k, put in 50k and sell with owner financing for 200k at 8% for 30 years!!
