Use Outside Closings To Sell Mortgage Notes!

Ready to sell mortgage notes?

Protect yourself with outside closings!

When an investor has performed their research and is ready to purchase a private mortgage note they will ask the seller to deliver original documents (note, recorded mortgage, etc.) and sign the transfer package.

The Note Buyer

The note buyer will want these original documents before the funds are released to the seller.

The Mortgage Note Seller

A note seller may understandably wonder,

“How do I know I will ever receive my money once I turn over the documents establishing ownership?”

The Note Buying Challenge

So the note buyer wants the documents before the money is released and the seller wants the money before the documents are released.

The Solution

Using an outside closing through a title company, attorney, or escrow company easily solves this impasse. The outside closer will act as an independent third party (or fiduciary) protecting the interests of both parties.

An outside closing is basically an exchange of money for documents. The outside closer will receive the proceeds from the investor into their trust account and also receive the documents from the seller. It is not necessary for either the investor or the seller to physically be present for the note closing with the use of overnight delivery and wire transfers.

The fee for outside closings average $200 – $400 and can be paid by either party or split equally. Any legitimate note buyer should be willing to participate in an outside closing through a licensed and bonded closing agent.

Outside closings offer protection and peace of mind to both sellers and investors when selling mortgage notes.
