Owner Financing & Note Investing Podcast with Dawn Rickabaugh

In this episode, Dawn shares her passion for owner financing and note investing as a way to create financial freedom outside traditional banks and Wall Street. She emphasizes that a private secondary market for mortgage notes allows sellers to offer financing and still access liquidity, creating a parallel real estate system that keeps more money within communities. One of the case discussions highlights how investors can structure deals without banks, benefiting buyers, sellers, and investors through flexible, win-win arrangements. One investor (Ken) shares his strategy of selling properties via owner financing to reduce management responsibilities while generating steady income, even offering favorable terms to help buyers succeed. The conversation reinforces that many real estate deals can be done creatively without traditional lending, and that fairness, flexibility, and real-life circumstances often drive why people choose owner financing.Listen to the rest of the episode over at CitizensOfTheRealm.com

This podcast episode focuses on how real estate agents and buyers can use owner (seller) financing as a powerful alternative to traditional bank loans, especially in a slower market where deals are falling through. Dawn emphasizes that agents can close more transactions (and avoid price reductions!) by introducing seller financing as an option, particularly for higher-end listings and buyers with strong profiles--for example, self-employed individuals with 20% down who can refinance later. She explains that sellers can benefit by receiving their full asking price, earning ongoing income, and potentially reducing tax burdens, while buyers gain access to properties they might not qualify for through banks. Overall, the discussion highlights seller financing as an underutilized strategy that creates win-win solutions, unlocks deals, and opens new income opportunities for both agents and investors.

In this episode of Property & Paper Live, Dawn Rickabaugh discusses current shifts in the real estate market and why seller financing and private note investing are becoming increasingly important as traditional lending tightens. The conversation covers real-world scenarios from investors, including a burned property tied to a reverse mortgage and how lenders may claim insurance proceeds. Dawn also shares insights on reverse mortgage timelines, distressed assets, and opportunities that arise when institutional lenders offload problems. As market uncertainty grows, she explains why investors who understand both property and paper (especially the secondary market for notes) are uniquely positioned to create solutions and profitable deals outside the traditional banking system.

In this episode of Property and Paper Live, Dawn Rickabaugh breaks down a real-world note deal she sourced from Craigslist and explains how understanding seller financing, time value of money, and human dynamics can turn an “uninvestable” situation into a high-performing asset.If you'd like to take advantage of the limited time offer for 50% off her book, 'Note Investing for Newbies' click HERE and use the code NEWB50 at checkout.
