Partials…The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

Let's review a little. First, what do we mean when we talk of "partials"? This merely means instead of buying or selling all of a note, we sell or buy a portion of the note. For example, in the last issue of THE NOTE PROFESSOR NEWSLETTER, we discussed how rehabbers would be eaten alive by hard money, and the only buyer available had a mediocre or low credit score. Ever been in this situation? To solve this problem the rehabbers could sell their property, finance it themselves by taking back a first lien note. The rehabbers could then sell a portion of the note to pay off the hard money lender, and this would leave the rehabbers with the back portion, or "tail end" of the note for their profit. I call this technique the REHABBER BAIL OUT.  More>>
