243. How to Profit from Mortgage Notes with Nathan Turner

In this episode of the Real Estate Investing School podcast, host Joe Jensen sits down with Nathan Turner, widely known as The Canadian Note Guy. Nathan has carved out a unique niche in real estate by focusing on mortgage notes, an often-overlooked strategy that allows investors to generate passive income without the headaches of property management. As the President of Ernest Inc. and Manager of Ernest Investing LP, he shares how he transitioned from flipping houses in Canada to becoming a leading note investor in the U.S., managing assets for accredited investors and running the Diversified Mortgage Expo, a top-tier industry event. Nathan breaks down the fundamentals of note investing, explaining how it compares to traditional real estate strategies and why he prefers being the lender rather than the landlord. He walks through his approach to buying performing and non-performing notes, the multiple exit strategies available, and how investors can turn seller-financed deals into liquid cash by selling their notes. Whether you're looking for a truly passive investment or want to learn how to structure notes for long-term financial growth, this episode is packed with valuable insights.
