How It Works

Sale of a Seller Carry Back Note

A secured real estate note can be sold at any time from the day it was created until the day of the last payment. What is actually being sold is the stream of monthly payments. A note holder can sell all the payments (a full sale) or part of the payments (a-partial sale).

There are so many options available to the note holder for full and partial sales; they are too numerous to mention. If the note holder is working with a knowledgeable note buyer, the note buyer can structure options designed specifically for the cash needs of the note holder.

It is important to know that all of these sales are equivalent. In other words, a note buyer would be equally happy with any of these purchases from a note holder.
