Where To Find Education On Notes

Where To Find Education On Notes

Investor · Newark, DE · Member since 2015 · 248 posts · 178 votes

I have seen this question posted numerous times here on BP so I figured I would post some helpful information regarding where to find education on Notes.  Rather than post a question on where to look and waiting for a response..... GOOGLE is your friend!!!!! Below I will list a few of the sources I used, or you can use to educate yourself on notes.

Education:

Books:

  • Invest in Debt - By James Napier (oldie but goodie) 
  • Performance Anxiety by Gordon Moss

Podcasts:

Notemba - They like it when you call it NoTEMBA instead of Note-MBA!!!

Note Buying Cash Machine is another

Bigger pockets podcast 028 and 211

Now the next question will be "Where to find notes" The places listed in the education can also provide sources for notes.  You can also call the banks. Be relentless when calling them. You wont make it the first time.  Build your network and leverage the ones who have the contacts.  Also do not try to learn everything, go with your strengths and let the power of your network shine. I am no expert but my network is. Without it I would not be successful with notes! 

P.S. ~ No amount of educating and analysis paralysis is going to teach you everything, each note is it's own educational seminar. So either keep searching and saying "once I" or learn by doing!!!  Good luck!

    Thanks for the list @Jay Raught!

    @Mindy Jensen Perhaps you could sticky this thread? Seems like a great first resource for people looking to get into notes.

    Great thread/info!  Thanks for the referral @Linda Hastings.  I'd like to second the Note Inc podcast by @Czarina Harris.  Educational AND entertaining!

    There is a "Notes, Tax Deeds and Liens" curriculum (one of six curricula) in the Renatus Accelerated Investor Training (AIT). It has five classes: 4 one-day classes and one two-day class. Each "day" is 8-hours long.

    Classes are available on-line, on-demand, 24x7.

    Thank you @Jay Raught for this post. I am considering Donna Bauer's system does anyone have any experience or thoughts on her approach?

    Thanks @Jay Raught! I was just browsing endless questions when I came across this. Lost of questions on this forum are more advanced. I understand you can't be a complete expert and you need to get your feet wet but it's important to have a strong foundation. That's what I'm trying to build.

    @Jay Raught, Thank you very much for putting this list together!  I am downloading the podcasts as I am writing this post!

    @Linda Hastings, I second your vote on making this sticky!

    @Mindy Jensen Any chance of making this sticky for all the noobs?  It might prevent a couple of us from starting separate threads...

    I also agree that most newbies (myself included) are really leery of snake oil.  But at least I know enough to admit that "I don't know what I don't know ".

    I thought they were already mentioned in this thread, but for completeness, here are a couple more book references:

    - Paper Profits by @Joshua Andrews

    - Turning Distress into Success by @Fuquan Bilal

    Thank you @Jay Raught for adding some credibility to the quest for reliable knowledge and training.  It's sometimes hard to tell the charlatans from those who really want to help others.

    I agree with you say about learning by doing.  But when did you feel like you knew enough to jump in?  Or did you just jump head first hoping for the best.
