Are non-performing mortgage notes for sale your answer to beating out stagflation and ensuring a healthy income in retirement?
Stagflation is kicking the country’s backside. Some experts predict that inflation will soar another 50% by October, real unemployment rates will likely throttle at well over 14%, and choked growth is expected to continue to be a major issue. In fact, even though small businesses, individuals, and giant private equity funds are sitting on a ton of cash, it isn’t moving anywhere.
At the same time, many are realizing that even though they may finally be recovering some capital in the wake of the economic whirlwind of the early 2000s, they are poorly positioned for retirement. Even those who have more than a decade before they would like to retire and half a million in cash in the bank are finding it hard pressed to envision a comfortable retirement with the current returns on bonds, projected stock market returns, and a potential gold bubble ballooning.
When stagflation strikes as it is now, real estate investing immediately becomes more popular as the masses rush to housing as a safe haven. However, rolling up your sleeves and spending your weekends rehabbing homes isn’t everyone’s cup of tea.
However, taking a look at non-performing mortgage notes for sale may just be the solution so many Americans are desperately searching for.
At the current discounts, these non-performing property notes for sale offer plenty of security, especially as the real estate market continues to improve. Select wisely and the returns and passive monthly income could definitely be the most attractive available today, at least for those not wanting to gamble on another tech IPO debacle.
Even in the few cases where investors may end up taking a property back, rental income properties offer a great hedge against inflation and will certainly be invaluable for additional tax deductions–especially for those who double up with the compounded advantages of investing through self-directed IRAs. Plus the resale market is so hot for short sales and REOs right now that well priced property is looking tastier than a leaked photo of the Kardashian sisters.
