There's a meetup in Fairfield once a month, if I'm not mistaken, organized by @Jonathan Makovsky. I haven't had a chance to attend yet, but plan on doing it in the upcoming months.

I just discovered the world of Notes in the past 4 days and since I've been watching webinars, audiobooks, podcasts and I am blown away by what I've learned. I am debating between signing up for Vegas or just going over the 2017 symposium at a 50% discount on last years price. My thinking is how different could things be from last year to 2018. Either way I will continue to learn and network. Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your thoughts and knowledge. I'm hoping to purchase my first note in the coming months. Preferably in distressed areas where I can possibly help people stay in their homes and turn a profit.
I would definitely go to the 2018 live event. Learning remotely is great, but there's nothing like being in a room full of like-minded individuals, specially ones with tons of experience. The networking opportunities at these events are priceless.

@Noel R. I'm not sure where you're getting 6% from, but 240 months of a $880.89 payment at a $65,000 purchase price will give you approximately a 15.5% return.
Help me with some math. If we take P&I and multiply by 12 payments then divide that number by our investment we will get yearly ROI? Which is about 16%?
I like using Excel and I use the "Net Present Value" function to solve these types of "problems". You can also use a financial calculator, as Tracy mentioned above, that's probably a quicker method.

Invest in Debt by Jimmy Napier is a classic. Another worthy mentions are Turning Distress into Success by Fuquan Bilal and Performance Anxiety by Gordon Moss (this one heavily focuses on 2nds).

Hi @Account Closed, I'm also getting started in notes, and I'm also in Norwalk, CT. Feel free to reach out if you ever want to discuss anything about the business. It's rare to see a note investor around this area (or so I've found).
