keeping a Mortgage Note? There Are at Least 5 Things to Think About

If you've sold real estate and are keeping the mortgage your self, you've created a cash flow for yourself which may be a great thing. On the other hand, you also have responsibilities, more than 15 that I know of. Here are the first 5:

1. You must abide by the rules and description in accordance with the compliancy with Fair reputation Reporting Act (Fcra)
2. You must be in compliancy with the Truth in Lending Law.
3. You have to derive the monthly mortgage payments yourself and profess records of the valuable and interest breakdowns (or pay someone to do it for you)
4. There is the risk of default or bankruptcy on the part of the buyer; an even greater possibility while this time of economic crisis.
5. Potentials of destruction of your asset whether by the buyer, through vandalism, fire, weather associated occurrences, etc.

Mortgage

And there are several other things that you are probably aware of in expanding to the above (I can think of at least 10).

So what options do you have? If you need the earnings from the mortgage note, then keep it and make sure you are aware of all the things mentioned above and stay on top of your investment. Remember, until the buyer pays off the note in full, You still are the owner and that asset is an investment.

On the other hand, if you can live without the monthly income, at least for a few years, and you could use some cash for something else, you could think selling a part of the note. Actually, you don't sell "part" of the note; you sell the monthly earnings for a pre-determined number of months.

Take a hypothetical example: You have a 0,000 note on which you receive ,500.00 in monthly payments. You would like ,000 to invest in something, or to meet some unexpected healing payments, or help a child pay off college debts. You could covenant with an investor who might agree to give you the K in exchange for the right to say, 38 monthly payments (hypothetical!).

You receive the ,000 immediately after the covenant is signed and when the 38 months is over, the monthly payments revert back to you. In a shop where the value of the house is rising, you might end up production way more than you foreseen, in the long run plus you've had the use of some of your equity Without borrowing against it.
