KNOW WHEN TO SELL YOUR NOTE

The old adage of knowing when to hold and knowing when to fold is even more true when it comes to selling your mortgage note. In fact, there are a huge number of perspective sellers who have no idea that they haven’t got to sell the total today, and we’re finding more and more advantages associated with holding/retaining part of your note.

When it comes to your mortgage note, sometimes it just doesn’t make sense to sell the whole thing, or it’s just not a viable, safe option. It’s important to realize that your home is your biggest investment, and as such, when you’re not able to sell your note at the price that you want, you’re set to lose a sizable chunk of money via your houses depreciation values. More often than not, because of the diminishing rates of return on homes, most buyers will only purchase full notes with large amounts of equity.

You’ll have your work cut out for you to determine how to best interest a potential buyer to determine the value of your home (through a loan to value ratio or LTV). This works by simply dividing what your note is worth by the value of the property. When you’re unsure, use your sales price as an estimate to get a ball park estimate.

Here’s an easy example of a loan to value ratio equation:

Your Property Value: $200,000/ Your Remaining Balance: $100,000 = LTV of 50%

When it comes down to a small number like the one above, you’ll have a great chance to sell the property. Most buyers will purchase a full when the LTV when the value is below 70% of the value. Most are looking for at least a 30% equity margin, proving that you’re invested in your home to use against the risk of foreclosure.

When it comes down to it, generally your mortgage notes fall well short of equity requirements, and therefore aren’t complete to sell. When you’ve got a particularly high LTV, your rate of return isn’t going to make you much money- which is when selling a partial is more important.

We’ve compiled a few Pros and Cons to help you make your decision:

Pros

• More cash in your pocket, and freedom from your note requirements
• No risk of default to the bank, giving you less management on your mortgage
• Easiest transaction process imaginable

Cons

• Bigger Discount on property value levels
• You’ll lose property retention opportunities
• Lost income, and the costs of lost interest
• Sometimes you’ll face equity restrictions

While it might not make sense to sell your whole full mortgage, it often makes more sense to use a smaller amount of cash to pay off a big bill (i.e. taxes, car payments, deferments) when you don’t want to take all of the cash out of your note, or only want to retain enough of the income to get a little cash today.

Many sellers don’t need to sell the whole note, and understand that buying partials benefits them more in the long run, so many sellers will be interested your note when you’re selling a partial for a little extra pocket cash.

NOTE BUYERS VS NOTE BROKERS

Many believe that the terms “note buyer” and “note broker” are the same, and that either can be used to describe a company which buys mortgage notes in exchange for cash. However, there is a key difference which is important to understand, and it may seriously impact you if you do not.

Note brokers are like real estate brokers.It is their job to bring sellers and investors together by locating mortgage notes for sale and buyers. The broker acts as the middle man, dealing with the transaction between the investor and seller. Funding does not come from the broker. They have to find funding from either an investor or note buyer, which can increase the time it takes to sell your note.

However, despite this, there are benefits from using a broker. There are far more note brokers around than there are note buyer, so the chances are there will be one around locally.

So, what makes a note buyer different? Unlike brokers, note buyers are usually big companies that offer their services across America. A third party is not needed as buyers can get notes straight from the seller.

Take, for example, Nationwide Secured Capital. We can buy mortgage notes directly since we have our own funds. As you can imagine, there are multiple advantages of using a note buyer over a note broker.

One bonus is that transactions take place much quicker. The buyer doesn’t have to go looking for an investor to put up the funding. Another plus is the clear underwriting. Buyers will have particular guidelines which determine whether they can make a purchase and, with a note buyer, they are able to notify promptly whether they can or not.

Experience is important in this industry, and note buyers have plenty of it. You have to be a note broker before you can become a note broker, and Nationwide Secured Capitals 17+ years as a broker is invaluable experience.

As you can see, note buyers and note brokers have differences, and both have their benefits. Ultimately, you must make the decision about which you would rather use.

Do I need an Appraisal?

When you have decided to sell your mortgage note, there are a few things to expect. One of them is an inspection of some kind.Mortgage note buyers will want to know the condition of the property that the note is secured by. At the minimum, and depending on the note buyer, a Broker’s price opinion, or BPO, will take place.

What is the difference between inspections, appraisals, and BPO’s?

An inspection can range from a typically a general observation of the exterior of the property to a complete home inspection. The information from an inspection may include whether or not the property is occupied, if there is any apparent damage to the property and whether there is any obvious threat that could impact the value of the property. A general inspection can done by almost any person and can include a general “drive by” of the property.

A complete home inspection will include what a person walking through a house cannot see. This inspection will tell you if the foundation is cracked or if the A/C unit is about to die. Other items inspectors may note are termite damage, roof condition, electrical issues, plumbing issues, drainage, and flooring problems. These home inspections should be completed by licensed or certified inspectors

A BPO is performed by a real estate professional, not necessarily a broker. It can be an appraiser, a real estate agent, or a broker. It can be a “drive by” which will be the exterior of the property or can include the interior if the person has access. . BPO’s usually determine a general listing price when selling a home. A BPO can include the size, type, and age of the property. A complete BPO will have the characteristics of the neighborhood and some values of similar properties nearby.

An appraisal is more detailed than a BPO and often include statistics, analyzation of data, pictures, and other information related to the specific party. Appraisals will often include the interpretation of the information along with information from public records. Pictures of both the interior and exterior of the property will be taken. Notes about any architectural features, and necessary repairs will be used to support the valuation of the property. Appraisers are licensed or certified depending on the state. When the note buyer is ready to move forward with the purchase of the note, the seller will know what to expect when one of the above is requested.
