What if there were a way to invest in real estate\u2026without investing in real estate? Scott Carson joins us to share how he buys mortgages. Banks struggle to evaluate loans because of their macro engines, and Scott sneaks into the crevasses to find opportunities to buy the loan from the bank and successfully turn a non-performing loan into a successful investment. He helps people stay in their home while also making money. How does it work? He\u2019ll explain how he identifies the loans that banks struggle with, buys the loans, and then works with the homeowner to get them back on their feet. He also covers what he does if he CAN\u2019T help the homeowner (and sometimes still makes money). We talk about the risks, upside, and mechanics of buying loans on today\u2019s show. Plus, in our headline segment, we dive into a Reddit thread focused on one big name\u2019s child\u2026who says that making money in real estate is super easy. We\u2019ll take a look and share some thoughts on taking advice from influencers on the internet. Plus, we\u2019ll take a question about HELOCs to Ruth\u2019s Rotary Phone AND we\u2019ll also share Doug\u2019s fascinating trivia (which doubles as a pop quiz!). All that and more on today\u2019s show!
