Hold onto your hats, investors! Ever wondered how to get in on the "sexy side of real estate" without all the messy rehabs and tenant nightmares? Well, Brian from Note Genius is pulling back the curtain with none other than yours truly, Scott Carson – your humble (but heavily caffeinated) Note Guy! If you're tired of fighting local competition for scraps or just want to know how to become the bank, this episode is packed with enough truth bombs and actionable strategies to make your head spin (in a good way, we promise!).

I'm diving deep into my 20+ years of experience, from my own "oops" moments trying to foreclose on everything, to why marketing directly to banks is your golden ticket to deal flow. We'll trash the myth that "there are no note deals" (anyone who says that can't market their way out of a wet paper bag!) and reveal how social media, AI, and persistence are your secret weapons. Get ready to learn why the note business offers unparalleled opportunities for true financial independence.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Note Investing vs. Traditional Real Estate: Discover why notes offer superior deal flow and lower marketing costs by targeting banks directly, freeing you from local property competition and rehab headaches.
• Mastering the Hunt for Deals: Learn how to find endless notes from banks using LinkedIn, strategic cold calls, and specific asset manager job titles, bypassing expensive direct mail.
• Due Diligence & Exit Strategy Wisdom: Avoid "OTSC syndrome" (Oh, That's So Cute!) by understanding you're buying a note, not a property. Prioritize "rehabbing borrowers" over foreclosing for faster profits.
• Raising Capital Like a Boss: Why waiting for a deal to raise capital is a rookie mistake. Build rapport over months, market yourself as a "doer," and target investors (especially SD-IRA holders) at REIA clubs and via online platforms.
• The Abundance Mindset & Future of Notes: Hear why sharing knowledge (and helping students succeed!) is key, and how AI, LinkedIn, and starting your 2026 goals NOW are essential for scaling your note business.

There you have it, folks! Scott Carson serving up a full plate of note investing wisdom. From why most people can't find deals (hint: they can't market their way out of a wet paper bag!) to turning a Houston horror story into a tax sale triumph, this episode proves the note business is where the smart money plays. So stop Googling 'how to get rich quick' and start putting in the work. Leverage AI, make those contacts, and remember: 80% of sales comes after the fifth contact. Now go kick some asset (pun intended!), and we'll see you at the top!
