Investing in Real Estate with Clayton Morris | Investing for Beginners

Physical rental properties are not the only performing asset that can help you build wealth. Holding paper, also known as seller financing, is a smart way to diversify, bring in cash flow, and create financial freedom. And on the other hand, if you’re looking to acquire real estate, owner financing can be a smart way to make a purchase.

Today’s guest, Mark Ross, is the CEO at Good Steward Lending Services, a company that provides solutions to buy, sell, and lend against notes. On today’s show, Mark is starting the ins and outs of holding paper, including the subtleties of the Dodd Frank law, the benefits of owner financing, and how to create a deal that is beneficial for all involved parties.
