Ep 117A Superpower You'll Need in this Market: No Risk Seller Financing!
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.

Ep 116Reverse Mortgages, Distressed Properties, and the Power of Note Investing
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.
