EP330 Special RPOA Expert Panel on Performing and Non-Performing Notes with Donna Bauer and Gene Chandler

This note buying panel discussion was recorded during RPOA's 2022 conference. We were joined by two incredible experts who helped us understand the difference between performing and non-performing notes, the challenges of investing in notes, and specific examples of wins & losses. After the discussion, we opened up the floor for Q&A from the audience.

I'd like to introduce our experts…

She's also done every type of note deal whether it be performing, non-performing, seller-financed or anything in-between, and she will tell you that hands-down she prefers paper over property any day of the week.
