The Property & Paper Live between Abby & I provided important, even explosive, insight into the direction of the discounted market for notes, and morphed into critical diversifications we both believe everyone should consider… and time is running out to protect your family.
To start, we discussed the note market, what’s hot and what’s not, including where investors are willing to deploy capital, and where they won’t.
It used to be that the main factor was simply the state’s foreclosure process. Deed of Trust / Trustee Sale states being greatly preferred over those states with a Judicial foreclosure process, as they take much longer and are not as predictable… a judge could potentially rule in a surprising manner.
Currently, policies are increasingly relevant. This loosely follows Red/Blue divides, with investment capital much preferring conservative policies that honor, protect and defend personal property rights, etc., over those areas that do not.
Home equity lines of credit seem to be the most prevalent institutional paper (notes/loans) being traded, along with ITIN loans to those who do not have a Social Security number, but do have a tax ID number to be able to work here in the US.
Near the end of our call, as can be typical with us, we got into other topics regarding what we think is important to prepare for, and how we each diversify beyond real estate and notes.
Abby brought up a new technological development that reinforces the idea that everyone should own some physical silver. We both think it may outperform gold. Paper silver in an ETF is not the same as physical silver, or silver owned through your IRA and stored in a Texas vault.
We have both been into Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies for several years. In fact, four years ago we recorded a video together where we suggested that people should position in at least some Bitcoin, which was then trading between $3,800 – $10,000. Now it is sitting at $64,000 as I write, with much upside yet to come.
We talked about a coming CBDC, a Central Bank Digital Currency. Of course, the debate around such a thing four years later has become much more mainstream. Let’s just say the video aged well 🙂
He blew me away with a new DEFI (decentralized finance) way to onboard fiat (dollars) and turn it into Bitcoin, and vice versa, WITHOUT KYC (know your customer), meaning, it’s totally private. Bisq.network. You do not have to give up all your private information (just to have it hacked and put up on the dark web).
We need private, permission-less financial options. I don’t trust the government and the powers that be… do you? More fraud has been perpetuated with the dollar that almost any other currency. I don’t want a centralized force to control my money or tell me what I can and cannot buy.
Anyhow, all things in moderation. Everything needs to be balanced with regard to your personal situation and goals. Make sure you are hedged to some degree against the collapse of the dollar and rampant inflation.
Make sure you can take care of your family for at least one month (if not more) if you couldn’t go to the store or order anything online… or even drive your car. Have backup food, water, water purification, light, heat, medicines, pet food, etc.
Last year when I came back online after 3 years of a sabbatical, one of the first messages I wanted to get out was about preparedness and important ways to diversify wealth so you not only survive the turbulent times that are coming, but actually thrive and maintain your own freedom and sovereignty.
I believe we could really see some black swans coming out of the woodwork over the next couple of months and beyond…
If Trump wins the election, which I believe he probably will, I think there’s a very good chance he will either be assassinated or that he will be blocked from taking office, which will send our country into a constitutional crisis representing extreme chaos and uncertainty, with markets dropping precipitously.
Boomer wealth traditionally invested could be devastated within a short period of time.
But never fear, out of the chaos and financial destruction, the Powers will present a solution, a Great Reset (at least their version)… universal basic income, only it’s programmable money (think CBDC) and if you don’t behave, you might find yourself cut off from support.
Maybe they’ll wipe out your debt, but in exchange, you may have to give up ownership.
But the WEF (world economic forum) has shamelessly been declaring for years that ‘we will own nothing and be happy about it.’ It’s part of the ‘attempted’ plan or ‘coup’.
I just want you to be armed with a heads up if you’re not already aware.
The ones that stick their head in the sand and refuse to research and prepare, and CHANGE… diversifying aggressively and RIGHT AWAY without delay, may very well find themselves in a world of hurt and few options, vulnerable to having to accept the handouts that the Powers will provide, even if it means no privacy or personal freedom.
As far as all of that relates to my investment in real estate and notes… that’s why I’m passionate about and hungry for buying and selling owner financed real estate and buying the front-end partials of notes created out of those transactions… safety, security, flexible options regardless of how things unfold.
You’ve been given a little more time to position yourself… don’t squander it.
Learn everything you can about creative real estate, seller financing and other ‘out-of-the-box’ financial solutions. And God bless you all.
