Crafting a Note for Buyers
In previous issues, the best method for selling a home in a tough market with seller financing was explained. The benefits to the seller from involving a qualified cash flow finder with a seller financed deal and having a note buyer “on board” before the note is created were also covered. While using seller finance techniques to sell a property are no more difficult than a traditional real estate closing, following a logical and proven plan is the best method for ensuring a successful real estate sale with seller financing.
The sellers’ misconception
Many property sellers stay away from seller financing because they mistakenly believe that creating a note is not a viable solution for selling their home. After all, if they can’t walk away with enough cash to provide the down payment on another property, they’ll be powerless to replace the property they’re selling.
As a consequence of this common misunderstanding, many sellers feel compelled to stick with conventional real estate methods, limiting their options and missing out on the benefits that seller financing could offer them.
In actuality, many notes created through seller financing are quickly sold and the seller ends up with the cash they need. Even better, if the note is created with buyers’ purchasing criteria in mind, the seller could walk away from the closing table with cash in hand. This means that the net result is almost exactly the same as with a conventional real estate sale!
In the cases where the note holder does have a problem selling their monthly payments, the difficulty in liquidating the note is typically a result of one general problem: the note was not created with the buyer in mind. Instead, it was created with only the payer in mind. To ensure that a newly-created note will be attractive to potential buyers, it is important to recognize that their purchasing criteria are important as well.
Too good of a deal
For property sellers looking to sell their note immediately, it would be a grave mistake to create the note by prioritizing only the payer’s demands. A buyer must have a compelling reason to agree to collect payments in order to buy a note, such as a substantial down payment, a respectable payer’s credit score (to minimize risk), a competitive interest rate, or a fairly short term.
An example of a “bad note” from a buyer’s point of view would be a seller financing situation where no down payment was collected, the payer’s credit score was not checked, and the interest rate is fixed at 3%. Basically, this is TOO good of a deal! Even payers that qualify for loans from traditional lending institutions would jump at this offer with no out-of-pocket money required and a rate below prime.
Clearly, the note payer and note buyer are looking for very different things. Payers would love a “no money down” purchase with financing at a low interest rate, but most buyers wouldn’t want anything to do with this sort of note simply because it is a bad deal for them.
In a situation without a reasonable down payment there is nothing holding the payer to their obligation. After all, a payer involved in a “no money down” purchase could walk away and lose almost nothing financially. Abandoning their obligation to pay may hurt their credit score, but it was their substandard credit that forced them into a seller-financing situation in the first place.
When there is no equity in the property (buyers will use the lower of the property value or the sales price to calculate equity), all offers to purchase the secured note will be discounted substantially in order to compensate for the buyer’s risk of default. A heavily discounted buyout offer often means the seller will not be able to get the money they need.
If the seller of a private note needs a large amount of cash immediately, they must be able to sell the note as soon as it has been created. And to quickly find a buyer, the note must meet the general buying parameters of these people, which include a solid down payment, a decent interest rate, and typical terms.
Creating notes that can be sold
Every buyer has their own criteria that determine what they will or won’t buy, but a down payment of at least 10% is a good minimum figure when creating a note. This upfront payment immediately creates equity in the property which acts as the buyer’s safety net in a foreclosure. A competitive interest rate is important because it will make it easy for the buyer to purchase the note and yield the desired profit without much of a discount to the note holder. Finally, keep in mind that people typically avoid notes that do not follow a traditional term (amortized over 120 months, 180 months, etc). A two-year, interest-only balloon term is a perfect example of a note that most buyers would avoid.
The points described above are only a rudimentary starting point for note creation; there are certainly other things that buyers look for when considering a note. It is always a good idea for the seller to contact a qualified note finder in order to get the specific information they need.
The finder will be able to utilize their experience in working with buyers to give the seller general guidelines about what should meet most buyers’ parameters. Of course, there are no absolute guarantees of a quick sale, but when the seller creates a note with the buyer.s needs in mind, it should not be a problem to locate an interested buyer who will give the seller the cash settlement they need.

land contract
A land contract is a contract between the buyer and a private seller of a property, wherein the seller holds the title or deed to the property until all agreed upon payments have been made in full
This property may be improved or unimproved, vacant, or a home or a commercial
Land contracts began to disappear when loan requirements softened and rates dropped below 8%
But they have not vanished all together and, in fact, tiptoed back into the market in 2006
Land contracts or contracts for deed are a security agreement between a seller, called a Vendor, and a buyer, called a Vendee
The Vendor agrees to sell a property by financing the purchase for the Vendee
Sue Heimbichner, an escrow officer at Chicago Title in Sacramento, has been in the business since 1976 and has watched the popularity of land contracts come and go
An agreement between a buyer and seller of property in which the buyer makes payments toward full ownership (as with a mortgage), but in a land contract, the title or deed is held by the owner until the full payment is made
This type of contract is technically not a legally binding agreement and, therefore, many different types of payment formats can be found
As in a standard mortgage, there is an agreed upon price and payment schedule, but the payments are often not amortized evenly, so that a large balloon payment may be required to complete the purchase
Also known as an installment purchase contract or an installment sale agreement
A land contract can be thought of as a “lease with an option to buy”
Certain states have more generous legal rights for land contract holders than others
As a result, the world of land contracts can be difficult to navigate
As such, as land contract buyer must be very careful to ensure that the terms of the contract are legally binding in case a dispute arises in the future
Land contracts are often used by purchasers that would not otherwise qualify for a mortgage, or by investors who wish to complete a purchase faster than a regular mortgage would allow
In some parts of the country it is known as a “Contract for Deed” and in other areas it is known as an “Installment Contract
” This form is designed as an agreement between the Seller and the Buyer for the purchase of real property in which the payment of all or a portion of the purchasing price is deferred
The purchase price may be paid in installments over the period of the contract, with the balance due at maturity
When the Buyer completes the required payments, the Seller must deliver valid legal title by way of a deed
During the period of the contract, the Buyer makes installment payments on the purchase price and to possession and equitable title to the property
The Seller holds legal title and continues to be liable for payment of any underlying mortgage or loans
The Buyer may assign and convey his/her interest in this “Contract” or any part thereof provided, however, that such assignment or conveyance should not result in any impairment of Seller’s position
Under no circumstances shall any assignment or conveyance release the Buyer from obligations under this “Land Contract” unless the Seller specifically releases the Buyer in writing
Can you read an existing agreement or contract and tell the difference between what and what is not
If you don’t understand all that legal language, you’re not the only one
Whether you are the buyer or seller, the language of any LAND CONTRACT can be confusing
Unfortunately, most of us cannot afford to hire an attorney to help us

Often times, home buyers are in a financial position to afford the monthly payments associated with home ownership, but they lack the down payment necessary to purchase a home
Or, the buyer’s credit score or rating may prevent he or she from obtaining traditional bank financing required for the purchase of a home
In those cases, it often makes sense for the buyers to consider purchasing a home or piece of real estate and have the owner/seller provide the financing for the purchase
Likewise, selling a home by way a land contract can prove beneficial to the seller in many ways
Likewise, real property sold on a land contract can often be priced higher than sales with bank financing since the seller provides the all-important financing and the buyer is often times not required to come up with a large down-payment, thereby permitting a higher asking price for the property
So how does a land contract work
Land contracts are common throughout the United States
In some states, they are called Trust Deeds, Contract for Deed, Deeds of Trust, Notes, or (privately held) Mortgages, but they all represent the same thing: a way of selling property where the buyer “borrows” from or relies upon the seller for the financing rather than paying cash up front or borrowing from a bank
The seller and buyer enter into a contract that normally states that the seller shall transfer ownership of the property to the after the buyer has fully paid the seller the agreed upon purchase price
In most cases, the contract requires the buyer to make a modest down payment and then to make monthly payments over time
The land contract can require the buyer to pay the seller interest on the money owed (just like a bank would)
During the term of the land contract (i
while the contract is in force and effect, the buyer is not in default and until all of the payments are made), the buyer holds legal possession of and occupies the property
The land contract can call for transfer of the property once the seller has received all of the required payments or can call for the transfer at some time sooner, with the seller then holding a mortgage on the property to ensure that the balance of the purchase price will be paid in full
Whatever the terms agreed upon for transferring ownership, when the agreed upon transfer date is reached, the seller tenders (or gives) a deed to the property to the buyer who then records the deed in the county recorder’s office or the real property office of the county where the property is located
While the benefits of land contracts are many, there are some potential pitfalls to a land contract that the parties must be aware
If the buyer misses any payment under the land contract, he or she may lose the property (the right to have the deed transferred to him) and the seller may keep the money paid up to that point as rent
Thereafter, the seller would not be required to transfer the deed to the buyer
Some states have laws providing that if a buyer makes a majority of the payments under a land contract (which cover a large percentage of a purchase price of the property), the seller may not be able to keep or refuse to transfer the deed if the buyer can make payments on the contract price at a later date (known as the right of redemption)
Typically, the original contract will have a provision allowing amendment of the contract and may also set out an amendment procedure
This assignment is designed for those situations where the purchaser of residential property decides to assign all his rights and interests is

Land Contract InformationA land contract is an agreement for the sale of an interest in real estate in which the purchase price is to be paid in installments and no promissory note or mortgage is involved between the seller and the buyer
Generally under such agreements, the seller is called the vendor and the buyer is called the vendee
Buyer DefaultWhen a buyer default occurs (failure to make payment or other breach of the contract) a seller should look to the remedies provided in the land contract
It should be read carefully to determine the parties rights and obligations
Generally, a land contract will give the seller at least three remedies to pursue if a buyer has failed to meet the requirements of a land contract:
Specific performance of the land contract (If the seller does not want to regain possession of the property, then the seller may sue for the balance due under the land contract or to enforce the provision breached
);Forfeiture of the land contract; or Foreclosure on and sale of the land contract property
Generally, a seller must use the court system in order to regain possession of the property and evict a land contract buyer who has failed to meet the requirements of the land contract
Land Contract Forfeiture Seller may regain possession of land contact property by forfeiture if:
The land contract expressly provides for forfeiture and termination of the contract; and The buyer has failed to make payment of any moneys required to be paid under the land contract, or has materially breached the land contract (Example: a failure to pay real estate taxes or to keep the property insured)
Before a seller may begin the procedure to regain possession of the land contract property the seller must:
Provide the buyer with a written notice of forfeiture describing the default; and Provide the buyer with a minimum of fifteen days (or more if the land contract provides for a longer period) to correct the default
It is important that a buyer respond in writing to a notice of forfeiture even if it may have been sent by mistake
If the buyer fails to respond to the notice of forfeiture or otherwise fails to come to an agreement with the seller within the time stated in the notice, the seller may take legal action
To do this the seller must file a summons and complaint, together with a copy of the land contract, the notice of forfeiture and proof of service with the appropriate court
The court will deliver or mail to the buyer (defendant) the summons and complaint
The summons states the date and time on which the court will hold a hearing (usually called a summary proceeding)
The seller and buyer should appear at the court on the date and time state in the summons and should be prepared to state their positions to the court
At the court hearing, if the seller is successful the buyer will have a certain amount of time (90 or 180 days depending upon the amount the buyer has paid on the contract) in which to pay the missed payments and court costs and/or to correct any other material breach of the land contract
A buyer who fails to pay or correct the breach within the stated time period may be evicted in the same way a tenant is evicted from rental property
Generally, when a seller has regained possession of the property after forfeiture the buyer has no further liability under the land contract
Land Contract Foreclosure Land contract foreclosure is generally a more complicated and lengthy remedy to regain possession of the property than forfeiture
A significant difference; between forfeiture and foreclosure is that in a forfeiture a buyer may prevent the loss of the property by merely paying past due installments, while in foreclose the buyer may be required to pay the entire balance due under the land contract
In addition, in foreclosure even if the property is returned to the seller the buyer may remain liable to the seller for the portion of the balance due under the land contract which was not satisfied by the sale of the property
Seller DefaultGenerally, upon a buyer’s fulfillment of the land contract the seller should give the required deed conveying the property free of liens created by the seller
A seller who fails to provide the required deed may be in breach of the contact
If the seller is unwilling or unable to give the required deed the buyer may have various options including legal action for:
Specific performance of the land contract (including a court order directing the seller to give the required deed);Quiet title;Cancellation of the land contract (seeking the return of then money paid by the buyer in exchange for all of the buyer’s rights in the property);Money damages
Above all, both the buyer and the seller may be able to avoid problems if they talk to each other when questions or concerns arise regarding the land contact

Land contracts vary widely from transaction to transaction
In most cases, no grant deed is recorded
The buyer rarely obtains a new mortgage loan at the time of purchase
Instead, the new owner makes payments to an intermediary, who then makes payments on the sellers mortgage, which is still in place
Keep in mind that such an agreement usually violates the lender’s guidelines
If the lender becomes aware of a transfer of title on the property (which is why you usually don’t record the grant deed), they can exercise the “due on sale” clause of the note
This would require you to refinance the loan or sell the property
Since many who buy on land contracts have problems qualifying for a mortgage, you can see how this can lead to problems
At the same time, lenders generally only check for transfers of title if the loan becomes delinquent
Within a certain number of years, it is expected the buyer will be able to qualify for a loan
At that time, they will obtain a new mortgage and pay off whatever amount the land contract requires
Then a grant deed is recorded and full ownership is conveyed

contract for deed or “installment sale agreement”) is a contract between the owner of the real property (called the “vendor” or the “seller”) and a person who wants to buy the property (the “vendee”, “contract purchaser”, “purchaser” or “buyer”)for an agreed-upon purchase price
Under a land contract the vendor grants equitable title to the vendee (which consists of virtually all rights and benefits to the property), and the vendee agrees to pay the purchase price to the vendor over time, usually in monthly installments, by a certain date
When the full amount of the purchase price is paid, the vendor is obligated to deliver legal title to the vendee by an actual deed, and upon delivery of the deed, the vendee owns equitable and legal title to the property
Equitable title, for all intents and purposes, makes the purchaser the “owner” of the property
There are several “land contract friendly” states in the US, while other states make it extremely difficult to sell or purchase real property by means of a land contract
Michigan is a “land contract friendly” state and has a long history with land contracts
It is estimated that about 18% of all real property (residential & commercial) in Michigan transfers by way of land contract
Often a Vendor will also collect 1/12th of the estimated property tax payments with every monthly installment
The Vendor will then pay the property taxes when they become due
It is a way for the Vendor to make sure that taxes are paid and do not create a lien on the property
Closing costs, prepaid items, and other fee’s are typically a lot lower when purchasing real property through Land Contract
Most all of the costs paid at closing, directly benefit the purchaser in one way or form
The most important feature of an agreement like this is the Seller does not deliver the deed to the Buyer at closing
When the contract is fulfilled, the Seller, or Vendor, gives the Buyer, or Vendee, the deed
The widest use of an Installment Contract occurs when the Buyer does not have the full purchase price in cash or is unable to borrow it from a lender
Historically, a Conditional Sales Contract was used to sell vacant property, or land, where the Buyer put modest amounts of money down and the Seller agreed to receive the balance as installment payments
Additionally, an astute Buyer will require that a collection account be used to collect the Buyer’s payments
This is done using a neutral third party
The Seller may insist that the Buyer place one-twelfth of the annual property taxes and hazard insurance in the escrow account each month to pay for these items
The Buyer will want to record the contract to establish the Buyer’s rights to the property
If a Land Contract agreement is used for the purchase, or sale, of real estate, it should be done with the help of legal consul
When the final payment is made to the Seller (or the property refinanced through an institutional lender), title is conveyed to the Buyer
land contract noun a contract in which a purchaser of real estate, upon making an initial payment, agrees to pay the seller stipulated amounts at specified intervals until the total purchase price is paid. If you’re buying or selling land, try to finance the property through an installment purchase contract, known as a land contract
Flag Article Instructions Difficulty: Moderate Things You will Need: Legal Counsellors Purchase Agreement Tax Services Paper And Pencils Writing Pens Business Plan Software Step1Agree on a sales price for the property with financing terms that provide a designated number of payments at predetermined intervals at a specific interest rate
Step2Realize that in a land contract, the buyer receives the legal deed to the property only after the seller receives most or all of the installment payments
Step3Include a clause in the land contract that allows you to prepay the contract amount without penalties
This allows you to improve the property and pay off the loan early or at the time of resale
Step4If the seller does not agree to prepayment terms, negotiate a release clause that permits you (the buyer) to subdivide and sell lots while allowing the seller to release the land to the lot buyers and accept the money from lot sales as installment payments

The finder will be able to utilize their experience in working with buyers to give the seller general guidelines about what should meet most buyers parameters. Of course, there are no absolute guarantees of a quick sale, but when the seller creates a note with the buyer.s needs in mind, it should not be a problem to locate an interested buyer who will give the seller the cash settlement they need.

5. What Mortgage Holders Should Know Seller Financing to the Rescue
The Problem
When it comes to selling real estate, one of the most difficult and frustrating situations for sellers is when market conditions make it nearly impossible to sell at the desired price point. A high initial listing price might be because the seller simply has an unrealistic idea of how their house stacks up against the competition in the area, or because the owner needs to sell for a set minimum price in order to pay off their loan against the property.
With traditional property sales methods, the only way to prevent the property from sitting on the market indefinitely is to keep dropping the price. Unfortunately, this technique doesn't always work - especially if the seller is unwilling to "discount" their house by much.
In areas flooded with homes for sale, reducing the asking price slightly will not bring the desired result. In fact, it's common that the property will continue to sit on the market without offers, alongside the multitude of other unsold properties with similarly reduced prices.
Anyone experienced in sales understands that making your product stand out from the crowd is a critical technique for success. But if there's too much competition offering the same attributes, the only logical way to attract the attention of serious buyers is to drop the price so that your property is a much better value than the competition.
In cases where the seller is too inflexible with their asking price, this is not a practical solution. Without an alternative strategy, the seller is forced to keep the house on the market for an extended period of time with an unrealistic asking price, hoping for the right buyer to come along. And as you know, that "Mr./Mrs. Right" might NEVER materialize!
The Seller Finance Solution
Property sellers who want to both obtain their desired price and close on the deal quickly should consider seller financing. Seller financing is a powerful tool to remedy real estate situations that otherwise look grim.
Many home sellers (and their real estate agents) do not see seller financing as a viable option. In actuality, seller financing can bring new attention to the listing and invite a different group of potential buyers - thereby opening up a unique, untapped market.
A large percentage of people throughout the country cannot get approved for bank funding to buy real estate because of their credit situation. Many of these people are still in the market to buy a house, however. The "credit-challenged" are often frustrated with the limitations of apartment living or being renters; as a result, many are willing to pay a higher price just for a chance to get seller financing and improve their quality of life.
A savvy property seller who recognizes this opportunity can salvage an unfavorable situation and turn it into a bonafide seller's market. By using this type of creative financing, the seller could actually end up getting more than the original asking price - without resorting to the questionable strategy of patiently waiting for the "right buyer".
Seller finance can enable homeowners to receive a favorable selling price despite bad market conditions. In addition, the real estate agent (if any) gets to close a deal and move on to other sales, while a home buyer with poor credit is able to become a home owner. It's one of those rare situations where everyone at the negotiating table gets what they want.
Paper Tigers
Many home sellers never consider seller financing because they don't understand the benefits. There are also common misconceptions that it's much too complicated to attempt to orchestrate a seller financed deal, or that there are no buyers willing to sign a private note.
Once a property seller takes the time to learn about the basic process, the advantages of offering financing instead of a lower price to sell their property become very clear. Plus, a little education about seller finance will make it apparent that drafting a secured private note is actually a very straightforward process.
The bottom line is seller financing can enable a home owner to "have their cake and eat it too" - i.e., sell at the desired price, close the deal quickly, and even receive additional income from interest payments as well.

Strategies for Strong Resale When property sellers need to receive as much cash as possible immediately for the down payment on their next house, it is critical to anticipate this need in order to use seller financing to their advantage. Getting top dollar for a note In a typical seller-financed closing, the seller only receives cash from the down payment at the time of sale. This amount could be used to pay the real estate agent and put the remainder toward their own down payment on another house, but in many cases, the amount received is not enough. In addition, sellers who uses private financing to close the sale will not get the full amount financed when the note is sold. Most sellers need as much money as possible when they "cash out" their newly created note, so their objective is to sell the note at the lowest discount possible. And to do this, they will need to create a secured cash flow that is attractive to note buyers. Note pricing factors The size of the discount - i.e., the difference between the purchase price and the remaining balance - depends largely on factors such as the specifics about the payer, the property/price, and the note terms. If the note is created without these important criteria in mind, the seller may have a difficult time finding a buyer to pay the amount that the homeowner needs. The Payer
Clearly, there isn't much the seller can do about the "quality" of the payer because most people interested in accepting seller financing are higher-risk borrowers. Still, if there is more than one party interested in buying their property, sellers offering financing can still discriminate based on credit history or the amount of the down payment offered. The Property/Price Similarly, the seller can't change the basic facts about their property - where it's located, the type of structure, or its age or condition. But, the seller can control the price they set for their property. Most sellers have a specific amount in mind that they need to get out of a sale. In traditional real estate sales, getting that money usually is determined by the property's price. But with seller financing, there is another step that is taken before the seller ends up with the total amount of money they were looking for - the note must be sold. Since private notes are typically sold at a discount, the seller must set their price higher than the amount they were looking for to compensate for the drop that will come with the buyer's offer. By setting the price slightly higher than market value, the seller can create a note that sells with a minimal discount. Individuals that don't qualify for conventional funding are motivated to buy real estate, even if the price is somewhat higher than market value. Increasing the sales price and the implied value of the property will not actually affect the buyer's discount, but the adjustment could lead to more money in the seller's pocket. A higher sale price means a note with a larger unpaid balance, which could still bring the seller the desired net amount after discounting. Keep in mind that higher sale prices can also lead to larger down payments (as a set percentage of the price), resulting in more money in the seller's pocket.
The Note Terms The most important thing for sellers to do is to structure their note so that the buyers won.t be forced to incorporate a deep discount into their offers. From the buyer.s point of view, higher interest rates and shorter terms are preferred. The actual offer made is based on the yield the buyer is looking for; in general, higher yields are associated with riskier notes. The discount is directly related to the difference between the interest rate on the note and the buyer.s desired yield. While sellers can.t know exactly what a buyer.s required yield will be, the seller can certainly create a note that could minimize the expected discount. Generally, buyers will want to receive a yield anywhere between 12% and 20% on a note. While yield parameters will fluctuate with the market, a 10% yield is typically the lowest they will accept for new notes. A note creation example
Because buyers usually want to earn a yield above 12%, creating a note with an interest rate under 10% would automatically mean a steep discount when the note is sold. For example, creating a cash flow with a 3% interest rate doesn.t make any sense if the seller needs to get top dollar for their note, because there is already a seven-point difference between the interest rate and the buyer's desired yield. In addition, most buyers will create a gap in their favor by yielding at least one point more than the interest rate. Sellers can also avoid unnecessary discounts by reducing the terms of their notes. Another part of a buyer's discount is based on the time-value of money principle, meaning that notes that take longer to be paid off will usually be discounted accordingly. An ideal term for a private secured note is between five to ten years (60 to 120 months). Conversely, it isn't a good idea to shorten the term down to two years or less because a foreclosure situation will be created - the monthly payment will likely be too steep for the payer to keep up with for long. By keeping the eventual note buyer's criteria in mind when creating a private note, property sellers can ensure that their real estate note deal works out the best for them. and that they net the highest amount possible when a cash settlement is reached.

This new statute overrides the constructive receipt doctrine and permits lottery winners to consult with their family, attorneys, accountants, and financial planners after winning the lottery in order to determine which payment option is most consonant with their goals and objectives The tax and financial considerations associated with a Section 451(h) election are discussed under "Planning," below The new law, which is effective for individuals winning the lottery after 10/21/98, creates a "qualified prize option" and a "qualified prize "6 A "qualified prize" is "any prize or award which (i) is awarded as a part of a contest, lottery, jackpot, game, or other similar arrangement, (ii) does not relate to any past services performed by the recipient and does not require the recipient to perform any substantial future service, and (iii) is payable over a period of at least 10 years " A "qualified prize option" is an "option which (i) entitles an individual to receive a single cash payment in lieu of receiving a qualified prize (or remaining portion thereof), and (ii) is exercisable not later than 60 days after such individual becomes entitled to the qualified prize " Section 451(h)(1) provides that, for a cash-method taxpayer, a "qualified prize option shall be disregarded in determining the taxable year for which any portion of the qualified prize is properly includible in gross income of the taxpayer " Section 451(h)(3) also instructs Treasury to issue Regulations for the application of the new rules to partnerships or other pass-through entities consisting entirely of cash-method individuals A significant transition rule gives previous lottery winners a one-time option to receive a lump-sum cash payment 105-277 provides that, for an 18-month period commencing on 7/1/99 and continuing to 12/31/00, previous lottery prize winners receiving payment in the form of an annuity may elect a lump-sum distribution equal to the present value of the remaining annuity payments Nevertheless, it is anticipated that most lotteries will begin offering the qualified prize option to prospective lottery contestants and prior lottery winners on 7/1/99 Unfortunately, Section 451(h) creates a class of prize winners who are not afforded its benefits
Under the statute, there are three classes of prize winners:Prize winners prior to 10/22/98 ("pre-effective date winners") Prize winners after 10/21/98 and before 7/1/99, the date on which it is anticipated that most lotteries will begin to offer a qualified prize option ("interim winners") Prize winners after 6/30/99 ("qualified prize option winners") Thus, as of 7/1/99, the pre-effective date winners can make the one-time "18-month election" to receive a lump sum Similarly, all qualified prize option winners will be given 60 days to choose between a lump sum or annuity prize But the interim winners are not permitted to make the 18-month election because their lottery prize was won after the effective date of Section 451(h); similarly, they are not permitted to make a 60-day election because the local lottery rules have not been changed to provide for a qualified prize option
The omission of the interim winners was most likely unintentional While legislation may be needed to cure the defect, it may be possible for the IRS to rule that it will not apply the constructive receipt doctrine to interim winners who are given an 18-month election to choose between a lump sum or an annuity First, many lotteries already offered a choice between a lump sum or an annuity In order to avoid the constructive receipt doctrine, the lottery contestant had to irrevocably elect the form of the prize prior to purchasing the ticket Regulations should clarify that pre-effective date winners and interim winners who chose to receive their prize as an annuity may nevertheless make the 18-month election to receive a lump-sum payment of the unpaid lottery prize Second, Section 451(h)(2)(b)(iii) requires that the lottery prize in the form of an annuity be payable over at least ten years Regulations should clarify, with respect to pre-effective date winners, that the annuity must be initially payable over ten years, as opposed to having at least ten years remaining on the annuity Example: On 3/15/87, Harold won a lottery prize payable in 20 annual installments On 7/1/99, the lottery board gives prior lottery winners a one-time 18-month election to receive a lump-sum payment Since Harold received 13 annual installments from 3/15/87 to 3/15/99, there are only seven remaining payments with respect to his annuity prize Regulations should clarify whether Harold is entitled to make the 18-month election Arguably, he should be, because his prize was initially payable over 20 years Other Constructive Receipt IssuesThe constructive receipt doctrine has been applied in other contexts with respect to lottery prize winners In Paul, TCM 1992-582, the taxpayer won the New Jersey lottery on 12/29/87 but did not receive payment until 1/22/88
The Tax Court held that winnings were includable in income in 1988, the year in which the payment was actually received In arriving at its decision, the court rejected the Service's argument that the taxpayer could have driven 68 miles to Trenton in the last two days of the year to demand payment "on the spot " The court considered such a requirement a "substantial limitation," thereby negating the application of the constructive receipt doctrine The treatment of the constructive receipt doctrine in Paul raises an issue with respect to lottery winners after the enactment of Section 451(h) If a lottery contestant wins on December 15th and is given 60 days to choose between a lump sum or an annuity, the contestant may argue that she is not required to include any portion of the lottery prize, whether a lump-sum distribution or an annuity installment payment, until the date on which she makes an election, possibly in January or February of the following year The IRS presumably would argue that the lottery contestant is given an election that may be exercised immediately, and therefore the existence of the election does not create a substantial limitation on the lottery winner's control or receipt of the lottery prize, in whatever form Economic Benefit DoctrineThe economic benefit doctrine is a related but separate income tax accounting concept that also should be considered
This doctrine provides that income is taxable under Section 61 even though it is not actually or constructively received in the form of cash Unlike the constructive receipt doctrine, it is not necessary that the taxpayer's interest in the property be assignable or for the taxpayer to be entitled to immediate possession; rather, it is only necessary that there be an identifiable property interest over which the taxpayer's rights have vested The Tax Court held that the winnings were taxable to the minor in the year they were deposited into the account for his benefit, not in the year of actual receipt Fortunately, certain restrictions in the lottery statute or rules avoid the application of the economic benefit doctrine Moreover, lottery rules typically provide that the winner has only an inchoate, contractual right to receive annuity payments from the lottery Withholding on Lottery WinningsSection 3402(q)(1) provides that "[e]very person, including the Government of the United States, a State, or a political subdivision thereof, or any instrumentalities of the foregoing, making any payment of winnings which are subject to withholding shall deduct and withhold from such payment a tax in an amount equal to 28 percent of such payment "15 Generally, proceeds exceeding $5,000 are subject to withholding Individuals who receive lottery winnings won by someone else or members of a group of winners on the same winning ticket must report their winnings on IRS Form 5754 Many lottery winners, especially large prize winners, are often dismayed to learn that, even after their lottery prize is substantially reduced by income tax withholding, they may be required to pay additional income tax Given the disparity between the 28% federal withholding rate and the 39 Gambling LossesLottery winnings are considered gambling gains " Therefore, gambling losses may not offset other income or be used as an NOL carryback or carryover The gambling loss deduction can be applied two ways:If a taxpayer's gambling activities constitute a trade or business, substantiated gambling losses are deductible in arriving at the taxpayer's adjusted gross income If a taxpayer's gambling activities do not constitute a trade or business, the IRS takes the position that the taxpayer must deduct such losses as itemized deductions
A limited federal credit for state death taxes is available Similarly, for lottery winners receiving payments as an annuity, the present value of the unpaid annuity payments is included in the lottery winner's gross estate In addition to the income taxes payable with respect to the lottery prize, Elizabeth's estate is required to pay estate taxes on the lottery prize included in her estate Assuming that the lottery prize is the only asset in Elizabeth's estate, that she made no taxable gifts during her lifetime, and that she is subject to a flat, combined 45% income tax rate, she would be required to pay income taxes of $4 After receiving the first five payments, Ann died on 11/1/98 Under Sections 2031, 2039, and 7520, Ann's estate is required to include the present value of the remaining 15 annuity payments, calculated to be $10,104,600 " This is an annuity, income, remainder, or reversionary interest that is "subject to any contingency, power, or other restriction, whether the restriction is provided for by the terms of the trust, will, or other governing instrument or is caused by other circumstances " Taxpayers have argued that lottery rules which prohibit or limit the assignability of the remaining annuity payments cause the annuity to be a restricted beneficial interest, thereby permitting a departure from the requirements of Section 7520 In TAM 9616004, the IRS rejected this argument, however, noting that Reg Because there is no restriction on the payment of the lottery prize annuity, the taxpayer is required to use the standard Section 7520 annuity factors , 1998), suggests that, for lottery winners dying between 4/30/89 and 12/13/95, departure from the Section 7520 annuity tables may be warranted
In Shackleford, the taxpayer died in 1990 after receiving the first three annuity payments of his lottery prize His estate reported the value of the remaining annuity at $2 The court concluded that a factual issue regarding the value of the annuity was in dispute, and therefore denied the Service's motion for summary judgment The taxpayer and her sister-in-law won a state lottery with a lottery prize payable as an annuity over 20 years The taxpayer's sister-in-law executed an affidavit stating that they regularly pooled their money, that they had a preexisting agreement to share their lottery winnings, and that the winning lottery ticket was purchased on behalf of their preexisting partnership The parties formed a limited partnership in which each was a 2% general partner and a 48% limited partner The limited partnership claimed the winning lottery prize After the first annuity payment was made to the partnership, the taxpayer died; it is significant that, as in Shackleford, the taxpayer died before 12/13/95, the effective date of Reg The taxpayer's estate listed the partnership interests on the estate tax return The partnership interests were valued by first computing the sum of the underlying assets, cash and 19 lottery payments receivable The estate then discounted the payments to present value using a discount rate based on the AAA-rated general obligation bond yield, as opposed to the Section 7520 factors
The estate further discounted each payment by 39 Finally, the estate took an additional 20% discount for the partnership interests for lack of control and another 25% for lack of marketability The Service rejected the estate's argument that the Section 7520 factors should not be used and found that the annuity payments were not restricted beneficial interests Based on the same rationale used in TAM 9616004, the IRS found that the nonassignability of the lottery prize did not affect the payment of the annuity In addition, the Service found that the right of the partnership to receive payment of the lottery winnings had not been restricted in any way The IRS concluded that the taxpayer's estate was required to use the standard Section 7520 annuity factors to value the annuity payments and that discounts for lack of marketability and income taxes could not be applied to the valuation of the annuity payments The Service expressed no opinion on entity discounts for lack of marketability and lack of control that were applied to the partnership interests Alternate ValuationOrdinarily, assets subject to the estate tax are valued as of the date of the decedent's death Section 2032(a), however, provides that the executor may elect to value the assets in the gross estate on an "alternate valuation date," typically six months after the date of the decedent's death If the property was distributed, sold, exchanged, or disposed of earlier than that date, it is valued on the date of disposition In TAM 9637006, a lottery winner was entitled to receive 16 additional annuity payments of $112,500 each at the time of his death On the day he died, the Section 7520 interest rate was 8 On the alternate valuation date six months later, the Section 7520 interest rate was 9 The estate valued the decedent's interest in the 16 annuity payments as of the date of death, but used the 9
The IRS ruled that an annuity is an interest that is affected by the mere lapse of time Valuation changes due to interest rate fluctuations, however, are not changes due to the mere lapse of time Changes due to mere lapse of time include changes attributable to the time value of money, the depletion of an asset, or the receipt of a benefit by an estate during the alternate valuation period The IRS concluded that the estate properly valued the interest as of the time of death with the adjustment for the difference in its value as of the alternate valuation date due to the change in the applicable federal rate Liquidity IssuesMany lottery winners and their families are discouraged to learn that, along with the return, estate taxes are due nine months after the date of death The estates of winners who received their prizes as an annuity are often placed in the difficult predicament of not having sufficient cash to pay estate taxes Example: The facts are the same as in the previous example, i , the present value of Ann's remaining lottery annuity is $10,104,600 Assuming that this is the only asset in Ann's estate (and that Ann made no taxable gifts during her lifetime), the estate taxes due will be $5,001,510 Ann's estate will not receive another lottery annuity payment until 10/31/99 Because of the illiquid nature of the annuity, there is simply insufficient cash to pay the estate taxes

Stop Foreclosure With Lease Back Option Stay In Your Home, Investors Buy Mortgage Promissory Note
We have investors who buy the promissory from your mortgage lender, and give a Lease Back Option Contract, and time to restore your credit, while staying in your home. Investors will negotiate a fair price for your home with CASH and pass on saving
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PRLog (Press Release) Nov 09, 2008 Cash flow notes can be the answer to keep you in your and forestall foreclosure. A cash flow note is a promissory note. Every mortgage has a promissory note that you sign at the tine of the closing of the mortgage sale,
if you are on the verge of foreclosure and want to stay in your home. We might
be able to help. CNN recently showed the story of a woman in Dallas Texas, who was in foreclosure and the faith to go the foreclosure sale, where her home
was been sold. CNN showed her in the foreclosure building site sitting on
the floor in the hall way of the building praying to stay in her home. A
woman saw her and had compassion for her. She purchased the home and leased back the home to her with an option to repurchase it after a period of time where she would have time to rebuild her credit. The purchaser gave the foreclosure victim a fixed rate mortgage that she could afford.
Oh, sure, we hear anecdotes about folks who stopped paying their mortgages simply because their homes were worth less than they had paid, or less than
they owed, even though they could still afford the payments.
Some people are thinking of buying another home at its new, lower price and
then mailing in the keys to his current home.
But there's little hard evidence that this is happening on a large scale, as
Los Angeles Times writer Michael Hiltzik recently reported in "'Walk away' borrowers might be an urban myth." Although lenders warn about the moral hazard posed by solvent walkaways, and Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson has branded
any borrower who would do so a "speculator" who is "not honoring his obligations," others say mortgage bankers are trying to shift the blame for
the foreclosure crisis onto borrowers' shoulders.
EDDIE FRANKLIN'S, CASH FLOW NOTE SALES is part of the most successful worldwide cash flow note multiple listing service. Stop foreclosure with lease with option to repurchase
We are a part of a worldwide network of investors that are for long term cash flow note streams of income. Some of them are willing to pay cash for your promissory note from your mortgage holder and reselling your home using seller financing, which will lease back your home to you with a lease with option to buy contract. These investors are interested in long term of stable cash flow income from your lease payments
Some people believe that walking away from a mortgage is immoral.
They believe you should do everything in your power to repay your loan, including draining your retirement funds, racking up credit card debt and selling your firstborn. In their view, the lender should have to pry the house keys from your cold, dead -- or at least bankrupt -- fingers.
Others insist that reneging on a mortgage obligation is no big deal. It's a business decision, they say, and nothing more.
As usual, both extremes are wrong
.
Most of us know money is more than a matter of numbers. There are ethics involved. Most people feel, or should feel, an obligation to pay their debts. (So should business people, by the way. When ethics depart business, the result is Enron
A promissory note, also referred to as a note payable in accounting, is a contract detailing the terms of a promise by one party (the maker) to pay a sum of money to the other (the payee)
The obligation may arise from the repayment of a loan or from another form of debt
For example, in the sale of a business, the purchase price might be a combination of an immediate cash payment and payments against one or more promissory notes for the balance
The terms of a note typically include the principal amount, the interest rate
if any, and the maturity date
Sometimes there will be provisions concerning the payee's rights in the event
of a default, which may include foreclosure of the maker's assets
Demand promissory notes are notes that do not carry a specific maturity date, but are due on demand of the lender
Usually the lender will only give the borrower a few days notice before the payment is due
For loans between individuals, writing and signing a promissory note is often considered a good idea for tax and recordkeeping reasons
In the United States, a promissory note that meets certain conditions is a negotiable instrument governed by Article 3 of the Uniform Commercial Code
Negotiable promissory notes are used extensively in combination with mortgages in the financing of real estate transactions
Other uses of promissory notes include the capitalization of corporate finances through the issuance and transfer of commercial paper
At various times in history, promissory notes have acted as a form of privately issued currency
In many jurisdictions today, bearer negotiable promissory notes are illegal precisely because they can act as an alternative currency
All Scottish and Northern Irish bank notes are effectively standardized demand promissory notes
In fact, the IOU is simply an acknowledgment of the existence of a debt owed;
in contrast, a promissory note , that is, it contains an affirmative
undertaking to pay the amount stated by a date, or subject to other specified conditions.
The lease with the option to repurchase is the key to circumventing the payable on demand clause in most promissory note contracts. We have cash flow note
buyer that are willing to help.

14. STOP FORECLOSURE WITH LEASE BACK OTION STAY IN YOUR HOME. STOP FORECLOSURE WITH LEASE BACK OTION STAY IN YOUR HOME.
Cash flow notes can be the answer to keep you in your and forestall foreclosure. A cash flow note is a promissory note. Every mortgage has a promissory note that you sign at the tine of the closing of the mortgage sale,
if you are on the verge of foreclosure and want to stay in your home. We might
be able to help. CNN recently showed the story of a woman in Dallas Texas, who was in foreclosure and the faith to go the foreclosure sale, where her home
was been sold. CNN showed her in the foreclosure building site sitting on
the floor in the hall way of the building praying to stay in her home. A
woman saw her and had compassion for her. She purchased the home and leased back the home to her with an option to repurchase it after a period of time where she would have time to rebuild her credit. The purchaser gave the forclosure victim a fixed rate mortgage that she could afford.
Oh, sure, we hear anecdotes about folks who stopped paying their mortgages simply because their homes were worth less than they had paid, or less than
they owed, even though they could still afford the payments.
Some people are thinking of buying another home at its new, lower price and
then mailing in the keys to his current home.
But there's little hard evidence that this is happening on a large scale, as
Los Angeles Times writer Michael Hiltzik recently reported in "'Walk away' borrowers might be an urban myth." Although lenders warn about the moral hazard posed by solvent walkaways, and Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson has branded
any borrower who would do so a "speculator" who is "not honoring his obligations," others say mortgage bankers are trying to shift the blame for
the foreclosure crisis onto borrowers' shoulders.
EDDIE FRANKLIN'S, CASH FLOW NOTE SALES is part of the most successful worldwide cash flow note multiple listing service. Stop foreclosure with lease with option to repurchase
We are a part of a worldwide network of investors that are for long term cash flow note streams of income. Some of them are willing to pay cash for your promissory note from your mortgage holder and reselling your home using seller financing, which will lease back your home to you with a lease with option to buy contract. These investors are interested in long term of stable cash flow income from your lease payments
Some people believe that walking away from a mortgage is immoral.
They believe you should do everything in your power to repay your loan, including draining your retirement funds, racking up credit card debt and selling your firstborn. In their view, the lender should have to pry the house keys from your cold, dead -- or at least bankrupt -- fingers.
Others insist that reneging on a mortgage obligation is no big deal. It's a business decision, they say, and nothing more.
As usual, both extremes are wrong
.
Most of us know money is more than a matter of numbers. There are ethics involved. Most people feel, or should feel, an obligation to pay their debts. (So should business people, by the way. When ethics depart business, the result is Enron
A promissory note, also referred to as a note payable in accounting, is a contract detailing the terms of a promise by one party (the maker) to pay a sum of money to the other (the payee)
The obligation may arise from the repayment of a loan or from another form of debt
For example, in the sale of a business, the purchase price might be a combination of an immediate cash payment and payments against one or more promissory notes for the balance
The terms of a note typically include the principal amount, the interest rate
if any, and the maturity date
Sometimes there will be provisions concerning the payee's rights in the event
of a default, which may include foreclosure of the maker's assets
Demand promissory notes are notes that do not carry a specific maturity date, but are due on demand of the lender
Usually the lender will only give the borrower a few days notice before the payment is due
For loans between individuals, writing and signing a promissory note is often considered a good idea for tax and recordkeeping reasons
In the United States, a promissory note that meets certain conditions is a negotiable instrument governed by Article 3 of the Uniform Commercial Code
Negotiable promissory notes are used extensively in combination with mortgages in the financing of real estate transactions
Other uses of promissory notes include the capitalization of corporate finances through the issuance and transfer of commercial paper
At various times in history, promissory notes have acted as a form of privately issued currency
In many jurisdictions today, bearer negotiable promissory notes are illegal precisely because they can act as an alternative currency
All Scottish and Northern Irish bank notes are effectively standardized demand promissory notes
In fact, the IOU is simply an acknowledgment of the existence of a debt owed;
in contrast, a promissory note , that is, it contains an affirmative
undertaking to pay the amount stated by a date, or subject to other specified conditions.
The lease with the option to repurchase is the key to circumventing the payable on demand clause in most promissory note contracts. We have cash flow note
buyer that are willing to help.

If the owner of a property is holding the mortgage for a buyer who couldn't get financing on his own, that owner
would be holding a cash flow note. If someone is a participator in a trust and is receiving or will be receiving monthly income, he is holding a cash flow note
Lottery winners, those who have an annuity and those with court awards paying out monthly or yearly, are all
holders of these notes
There is a whole business dedicated to buying cash flow notes from people so that they can have a lump sum of
money immediately (relatively speaking) rather than wait for years or decades for the entire amount
Let's take the case of the man who tried for three years to sell his parent's house in a large Eastern city
Look, the place was not exactly the Ritz and five realtors tried and failed, so the man decided to sell to a couple
who wouldn't have passed the bank's sniff test, but the owner liked them and really liked the idea of selling the place So the guy is now holding the mortgage
Five hundred dollars a month of steady income for thirty years, but the guy's sixty eight with a bad heart, and
the wife is begging for an African safari. So the man puts an ad in the paper that he is willing to sell cash flow notes And soon the man has a prospective buyer
When the two got together to talk turkey, the buyer set down the ground rules
His offer for the note would be based on the new owners' credit score, the value and condition of the house as well as its location
When all the facts were assembled, the notes buyer was willing to pay the man forty five percent of what the
owner had originally asked for the house with a realtor
While it was a real disappointment, the man had an epiphany
Since the value of the dollar seemed to be dropping every year and inflation climbing, the realization came that
in ten years the five hundred each month might be worth four hundred dollars and by the time the thirtieth year
came, the five hundred could easily be worth a hundred dollars
Better to get money while it still had a value of five hundred in today's economy
The note was sold and the new mortgage owner was now paid by the couple each month
A contract specifically laying out the amount of the loan to purchase an object, the interest rate, the amount and frequency of payments and any penalties for late payments or early payoff is a cash note
Airplanes, cars, boats and mobile homes are all ways that a cash note can be secured
And if the cash flow notes holder longs for credit card relief or a medical treatment or for any reason, there are investors ready to buy the note, but it will be at a tidy profit for them, not for the note holder

added, 'Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these

don't want to sell entire cash flow notes because the security of having a monthly income is comforting, but the holders still need a quick cash infusion For example, a man has sold a three hundred thousand dollar plane and is holding the note for it The man runs into tax problems and needs forty thousand dollars to clear a lien on his house The guy offers a buyer of notes the next sixteen monthly payments on the airplane in return for most of the money upfront to cover his liability The investor agrees to a seventy cents on the dollar lump sum to the note holder for those sixteen months of monthly payments The note holder gets the forty thousand, and the investor makes almost ten thousand dollars on the deal Not a bad deal for both and the man get back to his monthly income in a year and five months Not everyone has an annuity, which can certainly be considered in the family of cash flow notes. But if you have any structured payments over a period of time you can get cash now.

19. Sell Cash Flow Notes 5 A Cash flow note sale is no exception to this
There are basic concepts behind marketing that always apply, regardless of the company or marketing method
Perhaps the most important part of marketing and a cash flow note sale is getting the attention of your client
While using seller finance techniques to sell a property are no more difficult than a traditional real estate closing, following a logical and proven plan is the best method for ensuring a successful real estate sale with seller financing
Many property sellers stay away from seller financing because they mistakenly believe that creating a note is not a viable solution for selling their home
After all, if they can't walk away with enough cash to provide the down payment on another property, they'll be powerless to replace the property they're selling
As a consequence of this common misunderstanding, many sellers feel compelled to stick with conventional real estate methods, limiting their options and missing out on the benefits that seller financing could offer them
In actuality, many notes created through seller financing are quickly sold and the seller ends up with the cash they need
Even better, if the note is created with buyers' purchasing criteria in mind, the seller could walk away from the closing table with cash in hand
This means that the net result is almost exactly the same as with a conventional real estate sale
In the cases where the note holder does have a problem selling their monthly payments, the difficulty in liquidating the note is typically a result of one general problem: the note was not created with the buyer in mind
Instead, it was created with only the payer in mind
To ensure that a newly-created note will be attractive to potential buyers, it is important to recognize that their purchasing criteria are important as well
For property sellers looking to sell their note immediately, it would be a grave mistake to create the note by prioritizing only the payer's demands
A buyer must have a compelling reason to agree to collect payments in order to buy a note, such as a substantial down payment, a respectable payer's credit score (to minimize risk), a competitive interest rate, or a fairly short term
An example of a "bad note" from a buyer's point of view would be a seller financing situation where no down payment was collected, the payer's credit score was not checked, and the interest rate is fixed at 3%
Basically, this is TOO good of a deal
Even payers that qualify for loans from traditional lending institutions would jump at this offer with no out-of-pocket money required and a rate below prime
Clearly, the note payer and note buyer are looking for very different things
Payers would love a "no money down" purchase with financing at a low interest rate, but most buyers wouldn't want anything to do with this sort of note simply because it is a bad deal for them
In a situation without a reasonable down payment there is nothing holding the payer to their obligation
After all, a payer involved in a "no money down" purchase could walk away and lose almost nothing financially
Abandoning their obligation to pay may hurt their credit score, but it was their substandard credit that forced them into a seller-financing situation in the first place
When there is no equity in the property (buyers will use the lower of the property value or the sales price to calculate equity), all offers to purchase the secured note will be discounted substantially in order to compensate for the buyer's risk of default
A heavily discounted buyout offer often means the seller will not be able to get the money they need
If the seller of a private note needs a large amount of cash immediately, they must be able to sell the note as soon as it has been created
And to quickly find a buyer, the note must meet the general buying parameters of these people, which include a solid down payment, a decent interest rate, and typical terms
Every buyer has their own criteria that determine what they will or won't buy, but a down payment of at least 10% is a good minimum figure when creating a note
This upfront payment immediately creates equity in the property which acts as the buyer's safety net in a foreclosure
A competitive interest rate is important because it will make it easy for the buyer to purchase the note and yield the desired profit without much of a discount to the note holder
Finally, keep in mind that people typically avoid notes that do not follow a traditional term (amortized over 120 months, 180 months, etc)
A two-year, interest-only balloon term is a perfect example of a note that most buyers would avoid
The points described above are only a rudimentary starting point for note creation; there are certainly other things that buyers look for when considering a note
It is always a good idea for the seller to contact a qualified note finder in order to get the specific information they need
The finder will be able to utilize their experience in working with buyers to give the seller general guidelines about what should meet most buyers' parameters
Of course, there are no absolute guarantees of a quick sale, but when the seller creates a note with the buyer
It should be obvious that any marketing materials should be clear, powerful, and 100% free from typos and grammatical errors
Judging by the technical problems found in many small business� websites and advertising materials, many businesses apparently still haven�t realized this
Don�t just use an electronic spell check, because many word substitutions won�t be caught (such as using your instead of you�re)
After you�ve checked it yourself repeatedly and think it�s perfect, run it past some friends and family
Good advertising copy will attract people interested in cash flow note buying
Your copy has to do more than just publicize features and benefits
In fact, leading off with a headline that touts how amazing and wonderful your product is might have the opposite effect and instantly turn off the reader
If you use a headline or sub-headline, remember that the purpose is only to grab the reader�s attention and compel him to keep reading
The following copy must make some kind of emotional connection with your prospect
You might consider starting with a story or anecdote that seems to have nothing to do with what you�re pitching
An involving story (one with people or animals in it) sucks your reader in and makes him forget that he�s reading an advertisement
It also plays to the reader’s emotions, perhaps sparking their interest in cash flow note buying
Make sure whatever you�ve written isn�t too long
Again, try it out on acquaintances and get their input
Ask them how it makes them feel, or if they got bored or easily distracted while reading it
Ask them if they came up with any objections to performing the call to action
What do they think about the company behind the ad after reading your piece

Peer-to-peer financing is a convenient way to purchase real estate, especially today when loan regulations are tightening
Due to the fact that real estate is an extremely safe investment, many people are interested in purchasing the financial instrument that results from peer-to-peer financing
That financial instrument is known as a cash flow note
While the purchase of a cash flow note can be beneficial for investors, it can also be beneficial for the individual who matches buyers holding cash flow notes and prospective investors interested in purchasing cash flow notes
Such a match creates benefits for both the seller as well as the buyer
In addition, the person who creates the match can collect a fee in return for making the deal possible
The amount of the fee that can be received provides a method for individuals to establish financial freedom

21. Sell Annity Cash Flow 5 Sell annuity examples of payments
Your average account value during the year is $20,000, so you will pay $250 in mortality and expense risk charges that year
Administrative fees The insurer may deduct charges to cover record-keeping and other administrative expenses
This may be charged as a flat account maintenance fee (perhaps $25 or $30 per year) or as a percentage of your account value (typically in the range of 0
Example: Your variable annuity charges administrative fees at an annual rate of 0
Your average account value during the year is $50,000
You will pay $75 in administrative fees
Underlying Fund Expenses You will also indirectly pay the fees and expenses imposed by the mutual funds that are the underlying investment options for your variable annuity
Fees and Charges for Other Features Special features offered by some variable annuities, such as a stepped-up death benefit, a guaranteed minimum income benefit, or long-term care insurance, often carry additional fees and charges
Other charges, such as initial sales loads, or fees for transferring part of your account from one investment option to another, may also apply
You should ask your financial professional to explain to you all charges that may apply
You can also find a description of the charges in the prospectus for any variable annuity that you are considering
tax code allows you to exchange an existing variable annuity contract for a new annuity contract without paying any tax on the income and investment gains in your current variable annuity account
These tax-free exchanges, known as 1035 exchanges, can be useful if another annuity has features that you prefer, such as a larger death benefit, different annuity payout options, or a wider selection of investment choices
You may, however, be required to pay surrender charges on the old annuity if you are still in the surrender charge period
In addition, a new surrender charge period generally begins when you exchange into the new annuity
This means that, for a significant number of years (as many as 10 years), you typically will have to pay a surrender charge (which can be as high as 9% of your purchase payments) if you withdraw funds from the new annuity
Further, the new annuity may have higher annual fees and charges than the old annuity, which will reduce your returns
If you are thinking about a 1035 exchange, you should compare both annuities carefully
Unless you plan to hold the new annuity for a significant amount of time, you may be better off keeping the old annuity because the new annuity typically will impose a new surrender charge period
Also, if you decide to do a 1035 exchange, you should talk to your financial professional or tax adviser to make sure the exchange will be tax-free
If you surrender the old annuity for cash and then buy a new annuity, you will have to pay tax on the surrender
Bonus Credits Some insurance companies are now offering variable annuity contracts with "bonus credit" features
These contracts promise to add a bonus to your contract value based on a specified percentage (typically ranging from 1% to 5%) of purchase payments
Example: You purchase a variable annuity contract that offers a bonus credit of 3% on each purchase payment
You make a purchase payment of $20,000
The insurance company issuing the contract adds a bonus of $600 to your account
Variable annuities with bonus credits may carry a downside, however higher expenses that can outweigh the benefit of the bonus credit offered
Frequently, insurers will charge you for bonus credits in one or more of the following ways:Higher surrender charges Surrender charges may be higher for a variable annuity that pays you a bonus credit than for a similar contract with no bonus credit
Longer surrender periods Your purchase payments may be subject to surrender charges for a longer period than they would be under a similar contract with no bonus credit
Higher mortality and expense risk charges and other charges Higher annual mortality and expense risk charges may be deducted for a variable annuity that pays you a bonus credit
Although the difference may seem small, over time it can add up
In addition, some contracts may impose a separate fee specifically to pay for the bonus credit
Before purchasing a variable annuity with a bonus credit, ask yourself and the financial professional who is trying to sell you the contract whether the bonus is worth more to you than any increased charges you will pay for the bonus
This may depend on a variety of factors, including the amount of the bonus credit and the increased charges, how long you hold your annuity contract, and the return on the underlying investments
You also need to consider the other features of the annuity to determine whether it is a good investment for you
Annuity A offers a bonus credit of 4% on your purchase payment, and deducts annual charges totaling 1
Annuity B has no bonus credit and deducts annual charges totaling 1
Let's assume that both annuities have an annual rate of return, prior to expenses, of 10%
By the tenth year, your account value in Annuity A will have grown to $22,978
But your account value in Annuity B will have grown more, to $23,136, because Annuity B deducts lower annual charges, even though it does not offer a bonus
You should also note that a bonus may only apply to your initial premium payment, or to premium payments you make within the first year of the annuity contract
Further, under some annuity contracts the insurer will take back all bonus payments made to you within the prior year or some other specified period if you make a withdrawal, if a death benefit is paid to your beneficiaries upon your death, or in other circumstances
If you already own a variable annuity and are thinking of exchanging it for a different annuity with a bonus feature, you should be careful
Even if the surrender period on your current annuity contract has expired, a new surrender period generally will begin when you exchange that contract for a new one
This means that, by exchanging your contract, you will forfeit your ability to withdraw money from your account without incurring substantial surrender charges
And as described above, the schedule of surrender charges and other fees may be higher on the variable annuity with the bonus credit than they were on the annuity that you exchanged
Example: You currently hold a variable annuity with an account value of $20,000, which is no longer subject to surrender charges
You exchange that annuity for a new variable annuity, which pays a 4% bonus credit and has a surrender charge period of eight years, with surrender charges beginning at 9% of purchase payments in the first year
Your account value in this new variable annuity is now $20,800
During the first year you hold the new annuity, you decide to withdraw all of your account value because of an emergency situation
Assuming that your account value has not increased or decreased because of investment performance, you will receive $20,800 minus 9% of your $20,000 purchase payment, or $19,000
This is $1,000 less than you would have received if you had stayed in the original variable annuity, where you were no longer subject to surrender charges
In short: Take a hard look at bonus credits
In some cases, the "bonus" may not be in your best interest
Ask Questions Before You Invest Financial professionals who sell variable annuities have a duty to advise you as to whether the product they are trying to sell is suitable to your particular investment needs
Don't be afraid to ask them questions
And write down their answers, so there won't be any confusion later as to what was said
Variable annuity contracts typically have a "free look" period of ten or more days, during which you can terminate the contract without paying any surrender charges and get back your purchase payments (which may be adjusted to reflect charges and the performance of your investment)
You can continue to ask questions in this period to make sure you understand your variable annuity before the "free look" period ends
Before you decide to buy a variable annuity, consider the following questions:Will you use the variable annuity primarily to save for retirement or a similar long-term goal
Are you investing in the variable annuity through a retirement plan or IRA (which would mean that you are not receiving any additional tax-deferral benefit from the variable annuity)
Are you willing to take the risk that your account value may decrease if the underlying mutual fund investment options perform badly
Do you understand the features of the variable annuity
Do you understand all of the fees and expenses that the variable annuity charges
Do you intend to remain in the variable annuity long enough to avoid paying any surrender charges if you have to withdraw money
If a variable annuity offers a bonus credit, will the bonus outweigh any higher fees and charges that the product may charge
Are there features of the variable annuity, such as long-term care insurance, that you could purchase more cheaply separately
Have you consulted with a tax adviser and considered all the tax consequences of purchasing an annuity, including the effect of annuity payments on your tax status in retirement
If you are exchanging one annuity for another one, do the benefits of the exchange outweigh the costs, such as any surrender charges you will have to pay if you withdraw your money before the end of the surrender charge period for the new annuity
Remember: Before purchasing a variable annuity, you owe it to yourself to learn as much as possible about how they work, the benefits they provide, and the charges you will pay
Much of this information applies to variable annuities, as well

22. Sell Cash Flow Annuity 4 Other investment vehicles, such as IRAs and employer-sponsored 401(k) plans, also may provide you with tax-deferred growth and other tax advantages
For most investors, it will be advantageous to make the maximum allowable contributions to IRAs and 401(k) plans before investing in a variable annuity
In addition, if you are investing in a variable annuity through a tax-advantaged retirement plan (such as a 401(k) plan or IRA), you will get no additional tax advantage from the variable annuity
Under these circumstances, consider buying a variable annuity only if it makes sense because of the annuity's other features, such as lifetime income payments and death benefit protection
The tax rules that apply to variable annuities can be complicated before investing, you may want to consult a tax adviser about the tax consequences to you of investing in a variable annuity
Remember: Variable annuities are designed to be long-term investments, to meet retirement and other long-range goals
Variable annuities are not suitable for meeting short-term goals because substantial taxes and insurance company charges may apply if you withdraw your money early
Variable annuities also involve investment risks, just as mutual funds do
How Variable Annuities Work as variable annuity has two phases: an accumulation phase and a payout phase
During the accumulation phase, you make purchase payments, which you can allocate to a number of investment options
For example, you could designate 40% of your purchase payments to a bond fund, 40% to a U
stock fund, and 20% to an international stock fund
The money you have allocated to each mutual fund investment option will increase or decrease over time, depending on the fund's performance
In addition, variable annuities often allow you to allocate part of your purchase payments to a fixed account
A fixed account, unlike a mutual fund, pays a fixed rate of interest
The insurance company may reset this interest rate periodically, but it will usually provide a guaranteed minimum (e
Example: You purchase a variable annuity with an initial purchase payment of $10,000
You allocate 50% of that purchase payment ($5,000) to a bond fund, and 50% ($5,000) to a stock fund
Over the following year, the stock fund has a 10% return, and the bond fund has a 5% return
At the end of the year, your account has a value of $10,750 ($5,500 in the stock fund and $5,250 in the bond fund), minus fees and charges (discussed below)
Your most important source of information about a variable annuity's investment options is the prospectus
Request the prospectuses for the mutual fund investment options
Read them carefully before you allocate your purchase payments among the investment options offered
You should consider a variety of factors with respect to each fund option, including the fund's investment objectives and policies, management fees and other expenses that the fund charges, the risks and volatility of the fund, and whether the fund contributes to the diversification of your overall investment portfolio
Another SEC online publication, Invest Wisely: An Introduction to Mutual Funds, provides general information about the types of mutual funds and the expenses they charge
During the accumulation phase, you can typically transfer your money from one investment option to another without paying tax on your investment income and gains, although you may be charged by the insurance company for transfers
However, if you withdraw money from your account during the early years of the accumulation phase, you may have to pay "surrender charges," which are discussed below
In addition, you may have to pay a 10% federal tax penalty if you withdraw money before the age of 59½
At the beginning of the payout phase, you may receive your purchase payments plus investment income and gains (if any) as a lump-sum payment, or you may choose to receive them as a stream of payments at regular intervals (generally monthly)
If you choose to receive a stream of payments, you may have a number of choices of how long the payments will last
Under most annuity contracts, you can choose to have your annuity payments last for a period that you set (such as 20 years) or for an indefinite period (such as your lifetime or the lifetime of you and your spouse or other beneficiary)
During the payout phase, your annuity contract may permit you to choose between receiving payments that are fixed in amount or payments that vary based on the performance of mutual fund investment options
The amount of each periodic payment will depend, in part, on the time period that you select for receiving payments
Be aware that some annuities do not allow you to withdraw money from your account once you have started receiving regular annuity payments
In addition, some annuity contracts are structured as immediate annuities, which means that there is no accumulation phase and you will start receiving annuity payments right after you purchase the annuity
The Death Benefit and Other Features A common feature of variable annuities is the death benefit
If you die, a person you select as a beneficiary (such as your spouse or child) will receive the greater of: (i) all the money in your account, or (ii) some guaranteed minimum (such as all purchase payments minus prior withdrawals)
Example: You own a variable annuity that offers a death benefit equal to the greater of account value or total purchase payments minus withdrawals
You have made purchase payments totaling $50,000
In addition, you have withdrawn $5,000 from your account
Because of these withdrawals and investment losses, your account value is currently $40,000
If you die, your designated beneficiary will receive $45,000 (the $50,000 in purchase payments you put in minus $5,000 in withdrawals)
Some variable annuities allow you to choose a "stepped-up" death benefit
Under this feature, your guaranteed minimum death benefit may be based on a greater amount than purchase payments minus withdrawals
For example, the guaranteed minimum might be your account value as of a specified date, which may be greater than purchase payments minus withdrawals if the underlying investment options have performed well
The purpose of a stepped-up death benefit is to "lock in" your investment performance and prevent a later decline in the value of your account from eroding the amount that you expect to leave to your heirs
This feature carries a charge, however, which will reduce your account value
Variable annuities sometimes offer other optional features, which also have extra charges
One common feature, the guaranteed minimum income benefit, guarantees a particular minimum level of annuity payments, even if you do not have enough money in your account (perhaps because of investment losses) to support that level of payments
Other features may include long-term care insurance, which pays for home health care or nursing home care if you become seriously ill
You may want to consider the financial strength of the insurance company that sponsors any variable annuity you are considering buying
This can affect the company's ability to pay any benefits that are greater than the value of your account in mutual fund investment options, such as a death benefit, guaranteed minimum income benefit, long-term care benefit, or amounts you have allocated to a fixed account investment option
You will pay for each benefit provided by your variable annuity
Carefully consider whether you need the benefit
If you do, consider whether you can buy the benefit more cheaply as part of the variable annuity or separately (e
, through a long-term care insurance policy)
Variable Annuity Charges as You will pay several charges when you invest in a variable annuity
Be sure you understand all the charges before you invest
These charges will reduce the value of your account and the return on your investment
Surrender charges If you withdraw money from a variable annuity within a certain period after a purchase payment (typically within six to eight years, but sometimes as long as ten years), the insurance company usually will assess a "surrender" charge, which is a type of sales charge
This charge is used to pay your financial professional a commission for selling the variable annuity to you
Generally, the surrender charge is a percentage of the amount withdrawn, and declines gradually over a period of several years, known as the "surrender period
" For example, a 7% charge might apply in the first year after a purchase payment, 6% in the second year, 5% in the third year, and so on until the eighth year, when the surrender charge no longer applies
Often, contracts will allow you to withdraw part of your account value each year 10% or 15% of your account value, for example without paying a surrender charge
Example: You purchase a variable annuity contract with a $10,000 purchase payment
The contract has a schedule of surrender charges, beginning with a 7% charge in the first year, and declining by 1% each year
In addition, you are allowed to withdraw 10% of your contract value each year free of surrender charges
In the first year, you decide to withdraw $5,000, or one-half of your contract value of $10,000 (assuming that your contract value has not increased or decreased because of investment performance)
In this case, you could withdraw $1,000 (10% of contract value) free of surrender charges, but you would pay a surrender charge of 7%, or $280, on the other $4,000 withdrawn
Mortality and expense risk charge This charge is equal to a certain percentage of your account value, typically in the range of 1
This charge compensates the insurance company for insurance risks it assumes under the annuity contract
Profit from the mortality and expense risk charge is sometimes used to pay the insurer's costs of selling the variable annuity, such as a commission paid to your financial professional for selling the variable annuity to you
Example: Your variable annuity has a mortality and expense risk charge at an annual rate of 1

If an annuity is used in a qualified pension plan or an IRA funding vehicle, then 100% of the annuity payment is taxable as current income upon distribution (because the taxpayer has no tax basis in any of the money in the annuity)
If the annuity contract is purchased with after-tax dollars, then the contract holder upon annuitization recovers his basis pro-rata in the ratio of basis divided by the expected value, according to the tax regulation Section 1
(This is commonly referred to as the exclusion ratio
) After the taxpayer has recovered all of his basis, then 100% of the payments thereafter are subject to ordinary income tax
Since the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003, the use of variable annuities as a tax shelter has greatly diminished, because the growth of mutual funds and now most of the dividends of the fund are taxed at long term capital gains rates
This taxation, contrasted with the taxation of all the growth of variable annuities at income rates, means that in most cases, variable annuities shouldn't be used for tax shelters unless very long holding periods apply (for example, more than 20 years)
Also, any withdrawals before an investor reaches the age of 59 ½ are generally subject to a 10% tax penalty in addition to any gain being taxed as ordinary income
[edit] Insurance company default risk and state guaranty associations
An investor should consider the financial strength of the insurance company that writes annuity contracts
Major insolvencies have occurred at least 62 times since the conspicuous collapse of the Executive Life Insurance Company in 1991
Insurance company defaults are governed by state law
The laws are, however, broadly similar in most states
Annuity contracts are protected against insurance company insolvency up to a specific dollar limit, often $100,000, but as high as $500,000 in New York[6], New Jersey[7], and the state of Washington[8]
This protection is not insurance and is not provided by a government agency
It is provided by an entity called the state Guaranty Association
When an insolvency occurs, the Guaranty Association steps in to protect annuity holders, and decides what to do on a case-by-case basis
Sometimes the contracts will be taken over and fulfilled by a solvent insurance company
The state Guaranty Association is not a government agency, but states usually require insurance companies to belong to it as a condition of being licensed to do business
The Guaranty Associations of the fifty states are members of a national umbrella association, the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Associations (NOLHGA)
The NOLHGA website provides a description of the organization, links to websites for the individual state organizations, and links to the actual text of the governing state laws
A difference between guaranty association protection and the protection e
of bank accounts by FDIC, credit union accounts by NCUA, and brokerage accounts by SIPC, is that it is difficult for consumers to learn about this protection
Usually, state law prohibits insurance agents and companies from using the guaranty association in any advertising and agents are prohibited by statute from using this Web site or the existence of the guaranty association as an inducement to purchase insurance(e
Presumably this is a response to concerns by stronger insurance companies about moral hazard
Deferred annuities, including fixed, equity indexed and variable, typically pay the advisor or salesperson 1 percent to 12 percent of the amount invested as a commission, with possible trail options of 25 basis points to 1 percent
Sometimes the advisor can select his payout option, which might be either 7 percent up front, or 5 percent up front with a 25 basis point trail, or 1 percent to 3 percent up front with a 1 percent trail
Some firms allow an investor to pick an annuity share class, which determines the salesperson's commission schedule
The main variables are the up-front commission and the trailing commission
"No-load" variable annuities are available on a direct-to-consumer basis from several no-load mutual fund companies
"No-load" means the products have no sales commissions or surrender charges
Even these lower cost variable annuities often make sense only after an investor has exhausted all other forms of tax shelters, and only if being held for quite some time
Fixed and Indexed Annuity commissions are paid by the insurance companies the licensed agent represents
Commissions are not paid out of the clients principal
An examination of variable annuity investment versus investing outside of annuities Retrieved
An annuity is a contract between you and an insurance company, under which you make a lump-sum payment or series of payments
In return, the insurer agrees to make periodic payments to you beginning immediately or at some future date
Annuities typically offer tax-deferred growth of earnings and may include a death benefit that will pay your beneficiary a guaranteed minimum amount, such as your total purchase payments
There are generally two types of annuities fixed and variable
In a fixed annuity, the insurance company guarantees that you will earn a minimum rate of interest during the time that your account is growing
The insurance company also guarantees that the periodic payments will be a guaranteed amount per dollar in your account
These periodic payments may last for a definite period, such as 20 years, or an indefinite period, such as your lifetime or the lifetime of you and your spouse
In a variable annuity, by contrast, you can choose to invest your purchase payments from among a range of different investment options, typically mutual funds
The rate of return on your purchase payments, and the amount of the periodic payments you will eventually receive, will vary depending on the performance of the investment options you have selected
An equity-indexed annuity is a special type of annuity
During the accumulation period when you make either a lump sum payment or a series of payments the insurance company credits you with a return that is based on changes in an equity index, such as the S&P 500 Composite Stock Price Index
The insurance company typically guarantees a minimum return
After the accumulation period, the insurance company will make periodic payments to you under the terms of your contract, unless you choose to receive your contract value in a lump sum
Variable annuities are securities regulated by the SEC
Fixed annuities are not securities and are not regulated by the SEC
Equity-indexed annuities combine features of traditional insurance products (guaranteed minimum return) and traditional securities (return linked to equity markets)
Depending on the mix of features, an equity-indexed annuity may or may not be a security
The typical equity-indexed annuity is not registered with the SEC
You can learn more about variable annuities by reading our publication, Variable Annuities: What You Should Know
You can learn more about equity-indexed annuities by reading our online brochure, which explains equity-indexed annuities and provides resources for obtaining additional information
Before you buy a variable annuity, you should know some of the basics and be prepared to ask your insurance agent, broker, financial planner, or other financial professional lots of questions about whether a variable annuity is right for you
This is a general description of variable annuities what they are, how they work, and the charges you will pay
Before buying any variable annuity, however, you should find out about the particular annuity you are considering
Request a prospectus from the insurance company or from your financial professional, and read it carefully
The prospectus contains important information about the annuity contract, including fees and charges, investment options, death benefits, and annuity payout options
You should compare the benefits and costs of the annuity to other variable annuities and to other types of investments, such as mutual funds
A variable annuity is a contract between you and an insurance company, under which the insurer agrees to make periodic payments to you, beginning either immediately or at some future date
You purchase a variable annuity contract by making either a single purchase payment or a series of purchase payments
A variable annuity offers a range of investment options
The value of your investment as a variable annuity owner will vary depending on the performance of the investment options you choose
The investment options for a variable annuity are typically mutual funds that invest in stocks, bonds, money market instruments, or some combination of the three
Although variable annuities are typically invested in mutual funds, variable annuities differ from mutual funds in several important ways: First, variable annuities let you receive periodic payments for the rest of your life (or the life of your spouse or any other person you designate)
This feature offers protection against the possibility that, after you retire, you will outlive your assets
Second, variable annuities have a death benefit
If you die before the insurer has started making payments to you, your beneficiary is guaranteed to receive a specified amount typically at least the amount of your purchase payments
Your beneficiary will get a benefit from this feature if, at the time of your death, your account value is less than the guaranteed amount
That means you pay no taxes on the income and investment gains from your annuity until you withdraw your money
You may also transfer your money from one investment option to another within a variable annuity without paying tax at the time of the transfer
When you take your money out of a variable annuity, however, you will be taxed on the earnings at ordinary income tax rates rather than lower capital gains rates
In general, the benefits of tax deferral will outweigh the costs of a variable annuity only if you hold it as a long-term investment to meet retirement and other long-range goal

24. Sell Annuityies 2 Annuity may refer to:Annuity (finance theory), (Payout phase) any recurring periodic series of payments
Annuity (finance theory) (Accumulation phase) a tax deferred savings vehicle
Annuity (financial contracts), an insurance-like contract providing Monthly, Quarterly, Semi-Annual or Annual payments Annuity (US financial products)Annuity (European financial arrangements)Life annuity (also single payment annuity), a financial contract providing payments for a person's lifetime Annuity, a maintenance fee (patent) in patent law
An annuity that has no definite end is called a perpetuity
An annuity contract is created when an individual gives a life insurance company money which may grow on a tax-deferred basis and then can be distributed back to the owner in several ways
The defining characteristic of all annuity contracts is the option for a guaranteed distribution of income until the death of the person or persons named in the contract
Perhaps confusingly, the majority of modern annuity customers use annuities only to accumulate funds and to take lump-sum withdrawals without using the guaranteed-income-for-life feature
Annuity contracts in the United States are defined by the Internal Revenue Code and regulated by the individual states
Variable annuities have features of both life insurance and investment products
, annuity contracts may be issued only by life insurance companies, although private annuity contracts may be arranged between donors to non-profits to reduce taxes
Insurance companies are regulated by the states, so contracts or options that may be available in some states may not be available in others
Their federal tax treatment, however, is governed by the Internal Revenue Code
Variable annuities are regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the sale of variable annuities is overseen by FINRA(The largest non-governmental regulator for all securities firms doing business in the United States)
There are two possible phases for an annuity, one phase in which the customer deposits and accumulates money into an account (the deferral phase), and another phase in which customers receive payments for some period of time (the annuity or income phase)
During this latter phase, the insurance company makes income payments that may be set for a stated period of time, such as five years, or continue until the death of the customer(s) (the "annuitant(s)") named in the contract
Annuitization over a lifetime can have a death benefit guarantee over a certain period of time, such as ten years
Annuity contracts with a deferral phase always have an annuity phase and are called deferred annuities
An annuity contract may also be structured so that it has only the annuity phase; such a contract is called an immediate annuity
The term "annuity," as used in financial theory, is most closely related to what is today called an immediate annuity
This is an insurance policy which, in exchange for a sum of money, guarantees that the issuer will make a series of payments
These payments may be either level or increasing periodic payments for a fixed term of years or until the ending of a life or two lives, or even whichever is longer
It is also possible to structure the payments under an immediate annuity so that they vary with the performance of a specified set of investments, usually bond and equity mutual funds
Such a contract is called a variable immediate annuity
The overarching characteristic of the immediate annuity is that it is a vehicle for distributing savings with a tax-deferred growth factor
A common use for an immediate annuity might be to provide a pension income
, the tax treatment of an immediate annuity is that every payment is a combination of a return of principal (which part is not taxed) and income (which is taxed at ordinary income rates, not capital gain rates)
When a deferred annuity is annuitized, it works like an immediate annuity from that point on, but with a lower cost basis and thus more of the payment is taxed
This type of immediate annuity pays the annuitant for a designated number of years (i
, a period certain) and is used to fund a need that will end when the period is up (for example, it might be used to fund the premiums for a term life insurance policy)
Thus this option is not necessarily suitable for an individual's retirement income, as the person may outlive the number of years the annuity will pay
A life or lifetime immediate annuity is used to provide an income for the life of the annuitant similar to a defined benefit or pension plan
A life annuity works somewhat like a loan that is made by the purchaser (contract owner) to the issuing (insurance) company, which pays back the original capital or principal (which isn't taxed) with interest and/or gains (which is taxed as ordinary income) to the annuitant on whose life the annuity is based
The assumed period of the loan is based on the life expectancy of the annuitant
In order to guarantee that the income continues for life, the insurance company relies on a concept called cross-subsidy or the "law of large numbers"
Because an annuity population can be expected to have a distribution of life spans around the population's mean (average) age, those dying earlier will give up income to support those living longer whose money would otherwise run out
A life annuity, ideally, can reduce the "problem" faced by a person that he/she doesn't know how long he/she will live, and so he/she doesn't know the optimal speed at which to spend his/her savings
Life annuities with payments indexed to the Consumer Price Index might be an acceptable solution to this problem, but there is only a thin market for them in North America
For an additional expense (either by way of an increase in payments (premium) or a decrease in benefits), an annuity or benefit rider can be purchased on another life such as a spouse, family member or friend for the duration of whose life the annuity is wholly or partly guaranteed
For example, it is common to buy an annuity which will continue to pay out to the spouse of the annuitant after death, for so long as the spouse survives
The annuity paid to the spouse is called a reversionary annuity or survivorship annuity
However, if the annuitant is in good health, it may be more advantageous to select the higher payout option on his or her life only and purchase a life insurance policy that would pay income to the survivor
The pure life annuity can have harsh consequences for the annuitant who dies before recovering his or her investment in the contract
Such a situation, called a forfeiture, can be mitigated by the addition of a period-certain feature under which the annuity issuer is required to make annuity payments for a least a certain number of years; if the annuitant outlives the specified period certain, annuity payments continue until the annuitant's death, and if the annuitant dies before the expiration of the period certain, the annuitant's estate or beneficiary is entitled to the remaining payments certain
The tradeoff between the pure life annuity and the life-with-period-certain annuity is that the annuity payment for the latter is smaller
A viable alternative to the life-with-period-certain annuity is to purchase a single-premium life policy that would cover the lost premium in the annuity
Impaired-life annuities for smokers or those with a particular illness are also available from some insurance companies
Since the life expectancy is reduced, the annual payment to the purchaser is raised
Life annuities are priced based on the probability of the annuitant surviving to receive the payments
Longevity insurance is a form of annuity that defers commencement of the payments until very late in life
A common longevity contract would be purchased at or before retirement but would not commence payments until 20 years after retirement
If the nominee dies before payments commence there is no payable benefit
This drastically reduces the cost of the annuity while still providing protection against outliving one's resources
The second usage for the term annuity came into being during the 1970s
Such a contract is more properly referred to as a deferred annuity and is chiefly a vehicle for accumulating savings with a view to eventually distributing them either in the manner of an immediate annuity or as a lump-sum payment
All varieties of deferred annuities owned by individuals have one thing in common: any increase in account values is not taxed until those gains are withdrawn
This is also known as tax-deferred growth
A deferred annuity which grows by interest rate earnings alone is called a fixed deferred annuity (FA)
A deferred annuity that permits allocations to stock or bond funds and for which the account value is not guaranteed to stay above the initial amount invested is called a variable annuity (VA)
A new category of deferred annuity, called the equity indexed annuity (EIA) emerged in 1995
[2] Equity indexed annuities may have features of both fixed and variable deferred annuities
The insurance company typically guarantees a minimum return for EIA
An investor can still lose money if he or she cancels (or surrenders) the policy early, before a "break even" period
An oversimplified expression of a typical EIA's rate of return might be that it is equal to a stated "participation rate" multiplied by a target stock market index's performance excluding dividends
Interest rate caps or an administrative fee may be applicable
Deferred annuities in the United States have the advantage that taxation of all capital gains and ordinary income is deferred until withdrawn
In theory, such tax-deferred compounding allows more money to be put to work while the savings are accumulating, leading to higher returns
A disadvantage, however, is that when amounts held under a deferred annuity are withdrawn or inherited, the interest/gains are immediately taxed as ordinary income
A variety of features and guarantees have been developed by insurance companies in order to make annuity products more attractive
These include death and living benefit options, extra credit options, account guarantees, spousal continuation benefits, reduced contingent deferred sales charges (or surrender charges), and various combinations thereof

What is the present value of the note today
But would you "guess" at how much your home is worth
Find out exactly what the note is worth by having it appraised by a Certified Mortgage Appraiser

Where do you find buyers and sellers of mortgages and notes
Many individuals buy and sell cash flow notes, including the author of this article
Buyers and sellers of notes will often place classified ads in your local newspaper
Or you can run an ad to buy or sell a note
Anyone interested in getting a good return on their investment dollar is a candidate to buy your note
Who is responsible for making the property taxes and insurance payments
What do you do if they are not current
The person responsible for making the tax and insurance payments can vary depending on the terms of the mortgage
Before buying or selling a mortgage note, be sure to examine the terms for paying the taxes and insurance
Also verify that the policy is issued for an amount that represents at least the full value of the amount still owed on the note, and that you, as the lender, are listed as the mortgagee on the policy
What should you do if the borrower fails to make a payment on time
Do not let the borrower get into the habit of making payments later than the due date or grace period
Be sure to collect late fees if the payment is not received on time or within the grace period
Establish a no tolerance policy for late payments
If late payments persist, notify the borrower in writing of the exact nature of the default and proceed with legal action
What if the borrower files Bankruptcy or has a judgment against them recorded on the property
If the borrower files bankruptcy and lists you as a creditor you will be notified by the bankruptcy court
In this case, you must stop all collection efforts
Consider hiring an attorney to advice you in this area to avoid legal problems
How do I initiate foreclosure proceedings if legal action is required
Should I hire an attorney or do it myself
If legal action is required, the Note holder has the right to initiate foreclosure proceedings
Find an attorney in your area with experience in the area of real estate foreclosure
Declaring a loan to be in default and starting the foreclosure process is a serious matter and should be handled by an attorney familiar with the laws in your state
Should I periodically inspect the property that secures my mortgage note
What if the property is not being maintained properly
It is the borrower�s duty to protect and maintain the value of the property until it is paid in full
However, as the lender you should drive by the property on a regular basis to insure that the property is being properly maintained
If the property is in another state, have someone you know do this for you
Deferred maintenance on a property can seriously diminish the value of you loan

27. Sell cash Flow Notes 3 Some people don't want to sell entire cash flow notes because the security of having a monthly income is comforting, but the holders still need a quick cash infusion
For example, a man has sold a three hundred thousand dollar plane and is holding the note for it
The man runs into tax problems and needs forty thousand dollars to clear a lien on his house
The guy offers a buyer of notes the next sixteen monthly payments on the airplane in return for most of the money upfront to cover his liability
The investor agrees to a seventy cents on the dollar lump sum to the note holder for those sixteen months of monthly payments
The note holder gets the forty thousand, and the investor makes almost ten thousand dollars on the deal
Not a bad deal for both and the man get back to his monthly income in a year and five months
Not everyone has an annuity, which can certainly be considered in the family of cash flow notes, but many people have life insurance policies that, because of a terminal illness, can be put on the market and bought by an investment business
Such a business transaction, called a viatical, could be considered the same as the purchase of cash flow notes
These types of sales get very low ratings from financial experts and the business is fraught with those looking to take advantage of someone in a very sad condition
The best advice is to try and get through this hard time without being battered by a viatical agreement
There is a sizable amount of people making a good living buying and selling cash flow notes
There are even infomercials offering courses on how to do the business just described
But hold on; do a lot of checking because there have been complaints about the way these advertised companies do business
And while the traditional financial world has had its grocery cart full of maggots, anytime business is done outside the traditional box, such as the buying and selling of these notes, the breeding ground for unethical practices is enhanced almost exponentially
We need to be wise as serpents and gentle as doves
Real estate notes are probably the most common in the cash flow note business, or probably the most discussed for both business and conversational purposes
Almost everyone that has purchased a house understands the concept of a mortgage and what their responsibilities are for paying the "house note"
On the other hand, someone that is holding a note as a private individual may not be aware that it is possible to sell this note to someone else for a lump sum of cash
Many individuals, when selling property, decide that they can act as the bank or traditional lending institution and provide the financing for the buyer
In doing so the owner acts as the note holder and the buyer pays the owner/note holder in monthly installments until the entire amount is paid off or in this case, sells the real estate note to a private investor or company
Many individuals have income streams set up through these type of notes, collecting a month income from each one
However, circumstances may sometimes require that the note holder sell the note and receive a lump sum of cash for a myriad of reasons including financial upheaval to acquiring cash to expand their cash flow note business

Cash flow notes come in many forms and formats but all have one unique characteristic and principle
All notes are a promise to pay
Almost everyone has entered into an agreement to purchase something and pay for it over a set period of time
For example, when someone buys a new car, they will give the seller a down payment and sign a contract(this is a note) to pay for the car in monthly installments at an agreed upon interest rate
Once the buyer has met his obligation of paying for the car over the life of the note, the car is now the property of the buyer
This example can be applied to anything from furniture to multi-million dollar real estate transactions
Whenever a contract is signed to pay for something over a set period of time, this process creates cash flow notes
These transaction are not always between a buyer and a commercial entity such as a bank or lending institution
Often these transactions take place between a buyer and private individuals, whereas these private individuals act in the same capacity as a bank or lender
Real estate transactions are probably the most common form of cash flow notes between a buyer and a private individual
Many individuals may own homes they have placed on the market and provide the financing for a buyer rather than a commercial lender
In this case, the buyer would pay the monthly note to the original owner of the house
Once the contract or note is agreed upon by both the buyer and seller, the seller has now created a cash flow stream that pays him every month for the life of the note, or until the mortgage is paid in full
Real estate is just one example of cash flow streams that can be generated to create a monthly income for private individuals and investors
In following post, we will discuss other contracts and transactions that are also cash flow notes and income streams
We partner with an extensive list of Invoice Factoring Firms providing your company with a reputable firm with competitive rates
Someone requiring start-up cash for a business will usually seek out loans, which then require him or her to sign business cash flow notes
Also known as promissory notes, these papers set out repayment terms of the loan, establishing a promise to pay that debt
When a person borrows money from a non-commercial lender, business cash flow notes are still highly recommended, though not necessarily required
When signing promissory note forms, the parties usually agree on a specified repayment schedule
Amortized payments are especially common, particularly amongst commercial lenders
With amortized payments, the borrower pays equal monthly installments of both interest and principal over the course of several years or months
When the final payment is in, the entire debt is paid off
A balloon payment following smaller monthly payments is another repayment option
Here, the borrower pays either interest-only during the smaller monthly payments, or a combination of interest and principal
At a specified time, the borrower is required to pay the remaining balance in full
For less formal loans, such as those from friends or family members, the business cash flow notes may designate a date in the future for a single payment in full
Many people end up choosing to sell cash flow notes for immediate cash in their pockets
In fact, there are many companies and individual investors who are specifically cash flow note buyers
Since business cash flow notes are always sold at a discount, savvy investors will factor in risks and purchase notes that are likely to produce a good return on investment

28. Sell Cash fFow Notes 3 Some people don't want to sell entire cash flow notes because the security of having a monthly income is comforting, but the holders still need a quick cash infusion
For example, a man has sold a three hundred thousand dollar plane and is holding the note for it
The man runs into tax problems and needs forty thousand dollars to clear a lien on his house
The guy offers a buyer of notes the next sixteen monthly payments on the airplane in return for most of the money upfront to cover his liability
The investor agrees to a seventy cents on the dollar lump sum to the note holder for those sixteen months of monthly payments
The note holder gets the forty thousand, and the investor makes almost ten thousand dollars on the deal
Not a bad deal for both and the man get back to his monthly income in a year and five months
Not everyone has an annuity, which can certainly be considered in the family of cash flow notes, but many people have life insurance policies that, because of a terminal illness, can be put on the market and bought by an investment business
Such a business transaction, called a viatical, could be considered the same as the purchase of cash flow notes
These types of sales get very low ratings from financial experts and the business is fraught with those looking to take advantage of someone in a very sad condition
The best advice is to try and get through this hard time without being battered by a viatical agreement
There is a sizable amount of people making a good living buying and selling cash flow notes
There are even infomercials offering courses on how to do the business just described
But hold on; do a lot of checking because there have been complaints about the way these advertised companies do business
And while the traditional financial world has had its grocery cart full of maggots, anytime business is done outside the traditional box, such as the buying and selling of these notes, the breeding ground for unethical practices is enhanced almost exponentially
We need to be wise as serpents and gentle as doves
Real estate notes are probably the most common in the cash flow note business, or probably the most discussed for both business and conversational purposes
Almost everyone that has purchased a house understands the concept of a mortgage and what their responsibilities are for paying the "house note"
On the other hand, someone that is holding a note as a private individual may not be aware that it is possible to sell this note to someone else for a lump sum of cash
Many individuals, when selling property, decide that they can act as the bank or traditional lending institution and provide the financing for the buyer
In doing so the owner acts as the note holder and the buyer pays the owner/note holder in monthly installments until the entire amount is paid off or in this case, sells the real estate note to a private investor or company

From Note to Cash is a Franklins Cash Flow Note Sales that helps private individuals to: Liquidate Cash Flows
Few people know that they can sell cash flow notes TODAY for cash
Our network of investors is standing by, waiting to make estimates on notes of all varieties
So whether you need to cash out for legal reasons or you know someone who needs some extra cash up front, we can help
If the owner of a property is holding the mortgage for a buyer who couldn't get financing on his own, that owner would be holding a cash flow note
If someone is a participator in a trust and is receiving or will be receiving monthly income, he is holding a cash flow note
Lottery winners, those who have an annuity and those with court awards paying out monthly or yearly, are all holders of these notes
There is a whole business dedicated to buying cash flow notes from people so that they can have a lump sum of money immediately (relatively speaking) rather than wait for years or decades for the entire amount
Let's take the case of the man who tried for three years to sell his parent's house in a large Eastern city
Look, the place was not exactly the Ritz and five realtors tried and failed, so the man decided to sell to a couple who wouldn't have passed the bank's sniff test, but the owner liked them and really liked the idea of selling the place
So the guy is now holding the mortgage
Five hundred dollars a month of steady income for thirty years, but the guy's sixty eight with a bad heart, and the wife is begging for an African safari
So the man puts an ad in the paper that he is willing to sell cash flow notes
And soon the man has a prospective buyer
When the two got together to talk turkey, the buyer set down the ground rules
His offer for the note would be based on the new owners' credit score, the value and condition of the house as well as its location
When all the facts were assembled, the notes buyer was willing to pay the man forty five percent of what the owner had originally asked for the house with a realtor
While it was a real disappointment, the man had an epiphany
Since the value of the dollar seemed to be dropping every year and inflation climbing, the realization came that in ten years the five hundred each month might be worth four hundred dollars and by the time the thirtieth year came, the five hundred could easily be worth a hundred dollars
Better to get money while it still had a value of five hundred in today's economy
The note was sold and the new mortgage owner was now paid by the couple each month
A contract specifically laying out the amount of the loan to purchase an object, the interest rate, the amount and frequency of payments and any penalties for late payments or early payoff is a cash note
Airplanes, cars, boats and mobile homes are all ways that a cash note can be secured
And if the cash flow notes holder longs for credit card relief or a medical treatment or for any reason, there are investors ready to buy the note, but it will be at a tidy profit for them, not for the note holder
After telling us that the greatest commandment is to love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength, Jesus added, "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself
There is none other commandment greater than these
" (Mark 12:31) Christian business people should approach each customer with this commandment in mind

31. Sell Real Estate Cash flow notes 7 A real estate note is just the loan document created when you financed the sale of your house or investment property
It could be a mortgage note, or a land contract or contract for sale
The point is that the buyer is making payments to you, and you want to cash in
You can sell the entire contract, or just a certain number of payments if you want
The buyer of your property will have the same terms and payments
Hell just be making those payments to somebody else
Selling real estate notes can be an intimidating process
You know you wont get the full face value for your note, but will there be other fees you have to pay too
How do you know if the buyer is reputable
What is a normal discount on a note
Here are some guidelines to follow: No upfront fees
Eddie Franklins cash Flow Note Sales does not charge upfront fees for credit checks or initial appraisals
No other fees, with a couple exceptions
The buyer has already figured his expenses before making the offer, so there are only a couple fees you should have to possibly pay
First, you may have to pay for the title policy, if there are problems with the title that prevent purchase
Second, if the property appraises at less than the sales price, you may have to pay for the appraisal
You should only pay exactly what these cost the note buyer though
We will always give you a written purchase agreement with the purchase price and contingencies
Ask questions about anything that isnt clear Eddie Franklins Cash Flow note Sales checks the credit of your property buyer upfront
Unscrupulous buyers can quote one price initially, and then lower it later, using the excuse of the property buyers bad credit score
This is called bait and switch, and it isnt ethical
Youll need to provide information like the type of property, sale price, payment amounts, current balance, etc
They should respond within a day or two
When you get a quote you like, youll have to send copies of the Mortgage or Deed of Trust, the Note, the closing or Settlement Statement, and the Title Policy
If there is no recent appraisal, they will usually arrange for that
Usually, once you agree to the offer and send the documents (if done by mail), you can expect to receive a certified check or electronic transfer to your account within two to three weeks
Notes with a balloon payment get a higher price
Those are notes that have had payments made on them for a while
Some note buyers will buy new or unseasoned notes, but if you can wait until six payments have been made, youre likely to get a much better price
Higher interest rates and shorter loan periods will get you more money too
This is something to consider before you sell the house, if you think you might sell the note in the future
You can sell second mortgage notes, and other second-place real estate notes as well
Note buyers will look at these differently though
The first and second place notes cant add up to much more than 70% of the value of the property, or youll be looking at a steep discount

32. Sell Real Estate Cash Flow notes 6 EDDIE FRANKLINS real estate note sales get cash now
A real estate note is just the loan document created when you financed the sale of your house or investment property
It could be a mortgage note, or a land contract or contract for sale
The point is that the buyer is making payments to you, and you want to cash in
You can sell the entire contract, or just a certain number of payments if you want
The buyer of your property will have the same terms and payments
Hell just be making those payments to somebody else
Selling real estate notes can be an intimidating process
You know you wont get the full face value for your note, but will there be other fees you have to pay too
How do you know if the buyer is reputable?
What is a normal discount on a note?
Here are some guidelines to follow: No upfront fees
Eddie Franklins cash Flow Note Sales does not charge upfront fees for credit checks or initial appraisals
No other fees, with a couple exceptions
The buyer has already figured his expenses before making the offer, so there are only a couple fees you should have to possibly pay
First, you may have to pay for the title policy, if there are problems with the title that prevent purchase
Second, if the property appraises at less than the sales price, you may have to pay for the appraisal
You should only pay exactly what these cost the note buyer though
We will always give you a written purchase agreement with the purchase price and contingencies
Ask questions about anything that isnt clear Eddie Franklins Cash Flow note Sales checks the credit of your property buyer upfront
Unscrupulous buyers can quote one price initially, and then lower it later, using the excuse of the property buyers bad credit score
This is called bait and switch, and it isnt ethical
Youll need to provide information like the type of property, sale price, payment amounts, current balance, etc
They should respond within a day or two
When you get a quote you like, youll have to send copies of the Mortgage or Deed of Trust, the Note, the closing or Settlement Statement, and the Title Policy
If there is no recent appraisal, they will usually arrange for that
Usually, once you agree to the offer and send the documents (if done by mail), you can expect to receive a certified check or electronic transfer to your account within two to three weeks
Notes with a balloon payment get a higher price
Those are notes that have had payments made on them for a while
Some note buyers will buy new or unseasoned notes, but if you can wait until six payments have been made, youre likely to get a much better price
Higher interest rates and shorter loan periods will get you more money too
This is something to consider before you sell the house, if you think you might sell the note in the future
You can sell second mortgage notes and other second-place real estate notes as well
Note buyers will look at these differently though
The first and second place notes cant add up to much more than 70% of the value of the property, or youll be looking at a steep discount

Note A promissory note, mortgage note, trust deed note or cash flow note is a document in which one party, the maker (payor), promises to pay an exact sum of money to another (the payee) at a fixed or determinable future time
Mortgage A mortgage deed is a written instrument that creates a lien by pledging real property as security for a debt
Deed of Trust A written instrument that transfers bare legal title to real property to a trustee to be held as security for a debt
Land Contract A security device used in the sale of real property
The buyer agrees to pay the purchase price in installments
The seller agrees that when the purchase price is paid in full, he will deed the property to the buyer
Until the purchase price is paid in full, the seller keeps legal title
Also called conditional sales contract, contract for deed or contract of sale

Every facet of the note purchase process was dealt with quickly and succinctly
Never once did I feel that the sale of our [pool of] notes was in the wrong hands
Eddie Franklins experience and know-how showed through in every phase of the process
The full purchase is our most popular option for buying real estate contracts for several excellent reasons: Provides the largest amount of cash right now
Eliminates the risk & hassle of foreclosure
The partial purchase is also an exceptionally popular option with note sellers because of it's extreme flexibility and because in many cases it is possible to receive MORE MONEY than the original selling price
Also, note holders frequently don't need to sell their entire note, they just need to access some of it's worth, so we buy mortgage note payments instead of the whole note
This enables note sellers to generate a specific amount of cash by selling just a portion of their payments and keep the rest
The note seller receives cash at closing to achieve their immediate goals and has the option to sell the remaining payments later or begin collecting payments again in the future
The split partial balloon note sale is an option when a mortgage has a certain number of payments and a balloon payment due at a later date
We can buy the payments leading up to the balloon and a portion of the balloon when it comes due
The note seller gets a lump sum of cash at closing and receives the other portion of the balloon split when it gets paid off

Often referred to as mortgage buyers, note buyers, trust deed buyers, mortgage investors, real estate note investors or real estate contract buyers, these companies all purchase real estate secured promissory notes and discounted mortgage notes

Economists insist a recession is in full swing
That, combined with $4 a gallon gas prices, inflation, rising food costs, the war on terror, the upcoming presidential election and a nationwide unemployment rate of 9
All in all, it comes as no surprise that millions of folks are tightening their belts, liquidating their riskier investments, stockpiling their cash and bracing themselves for what many believe could turn out to be quite a storm
Once upon a time, seller financed real estate notes were considered among the safest, most secure income producing assets you could get and mortgage backed securities were, until very recently, a Wall Street mainstay
Now they're seen as risky by most note holders (and even by many would-be real estate note buyers and private mortgage note buyers too) because the combination of the sub prime meltdown, plummeting property values, a stagnant real estate market and rising unemployment make their future payments much less certain
In turn, the prospect of foreclosure and financial loss becomes much more likely
To add insult to injury, none of the major investors who used to buy private mortgages and package them into mortgage backed securities for sale to Wall Street will touch them anymore
Even huge loan servicing companies like Countrywide, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and IndyMac are in serious trouble or have been taken over by the US government
With no major outlets to sell to any longer, holding a privately owned mortgage note is suddenly a much riskier proposition
At TCF, we buy & hold; we don't package & sell to Wall Street
That's why we're STILL BUYING and STILL paying TOP DOLLAR for good quality private mortgage notes
Given the choice, it's no wonder millions of people who are currently receiving payments on a real estate note, mortgage note or deed of trust feel like the clock is ticking
It's also not surprising that millions of them are searching for an exit strategy (real estate note investors and/or private mortgage investors) and have begun converting their notes into cash now, before the market declines further and especially before their payments stop or there is a problem that causes their note to lose even more value
And while the days of getting 95 to 99 cents on the dollar for private mortgage notes are long gone, it's still an excellent time to sell your note; at least for the time being
But hindsight is always 20/20; and if history has taught us ANYTHING, it's that "he who hesitates loses his shirt", so don't wait too long to contact a mortgage note buyer like TCF

35. Sell Real Estate Notes 3 Creative home sellers who offer seller financing to potential buyers can often sell their houses more quickly (and at a higher price) in a slow market
While applying seller financing techniques isn't more difficult than traditional real estate sales, it is important to recognize that the buyers looking for seller financing represent a different target market than typical bank-financed customers
Similarly, the process for obtaining a large cash payment for the seller after a note is created varies from the conventional real estate closing technique as well
In some seller-financed real estate situations, the property owner may have an immediate need for more cash than is available from the scheduled principal and interest payments
This situation often comes about when the seller needs to have enough money to use as a down payment for their next real estate purchase
In order to quickly obtain a large proportion of the money due from the loan they just created, the seller could sell the monthly note payments to a buyer for a lump sum of cash
By locating someone willing to buy the note payments, the seller will have ready cash for a down payment or any other pressing financial need
In order to streamline the seller finance sale situation, it is advisable to have potential buyers for the newly-created cash flow at the ready
A seller can start looking for buyers before the note is created, or even before a seller-financed buyer is "lined up"
This way, the property seller could have a buyer for the payment stream ready to make the purchase as soon as the new private mortgage is created
But what is the best method to find these note buyers
In stark contrast to locating seller-finance buyers for the real estate itself, a classified ad in the paper is not the best option
Most people looking to purchase a stream of monthly payments do not look in the newspaper for potential cash flows to add to their portfolios
An alternate marketing strategy is required for finding note buyers
In recent years, the Internet has become the best place to find cash flow purchasers
Using keywords such as "buy monthly payments" or "buy mortgage payments" at a popular search engine website should lead to many interested buyers
Sometimes there are so many potential buyers, it can be difficult to figure out where to start
Also, cash flow buyers tend to have distinctly different financial parameters; an opportunity that meets the needs of one person perfectly may not be attractive at all to another
Therefore, it is often best to work with someone who could give the seller a general idea about how notes should be structured
In the secondary finance industry, a unique group of individuals exists who specialize in locating note buyers
These finders are happy to work with agents and their clients
Many of them utilize online marketing and have Internet websites to facilitate the buyer location process
The best of the bunch also look in the newspaper for property sellers offering financing, so sometimes a good finder will contact the seller if their property is advertised as FSBO
Finders specialize in helping property sellers locate buyers for secured notes
Once in contact with a finder, the seller should explain the details of the situation
Most importantly, note finders will be able to help locate a buyer for a newly-created cash flow
Remember, these finders are not note brokers, meaning they will not "show" the seller's note to buyers or act as a representative
They will only pass the information along to someone who would be interested
Once a commitment to purchase the cash flow has been established, the buyer will step in and complete the deal
When working with a property seller who needs a lump sum of cash immediately after selling their real estate, contacting a finder early in the process of creating a real estate note makes sense
By involving a qualified note finder BEFORE a note is created, the property seller can receive invaluable input about the payment characteristics that note buyers prefer
Without this knowledge, the property could sell quickly with the creation of a new note, but the seller might end up collecting the payments long-term instead of being able to quickly "trade" the future payments for an upfront cash settlement
If the property seller will need a large amount of cash quickly, it makes sense to plan ahead for a buyer to purchase the cash flow and involve the services of a note finder

If you want cash for your business note or mortgage note, Eddie Franklins Cash Flow Note Sales can help you
We work with some of the top business and mortgage note buyers and investors
Perhaps you've recently come across a great investment opportunity
Or, maybe you need some extra cash flow to pay down debt
Whatever the reason, you have heard that you can sell your real estate note (more often called a mortgage note), but you aren't quite sure how it works or how to ensure that you get a good deal
Let's say that the note has now been completed, you have received at least one payment from the property buyer, and now you've called us about selling the note
The first thing that most note sellers think about is selling the entire note
If that scenario fits your financial situation and the note is likely to fetch a high value, you may want to go down that path
But wait, you should at least understand other options in order to choose the one that is the best fit
Sometimes, note sellers like the interest rate that they are receiving on the note, but just want to obtain some amount of cash now
Or, It is possible, and often to your advantage, to just sell some of the payments
This is called a partial, and it can often provide you with a much higher rate of return
Assume that you sold a house for $120,000, the buyer gave you $20,000 as a down payment, and you have a $100,000 note at 7% for the next 15 years (180 months)
You enjoy getting the income each month but need $30,000 for another investment or to pay off debt
We could give you that $30,000 in exchange for buying the next "x" number of payments, after which the note reverts back to you for the remainder of the term
There are also other ways to structure the note to meet your needs, such as getting a lump sum of money now plus receiving a part of the payment each month thereafter
A knowledgeable note buyer will be able to explain these to you in more detail
The items that are described above and apply mainly to 1st liens
