Common Mistakes Anyone Can Make!

  • Mistake 1

    Thinking you need to spend a lot of $'s on note training.

    SPOILER ALERT: You actually don’t.

    The good news is there are options for learning notes that won't require you to break the bank or take out a loan.

    Note Launchpad will get you up and running faster and with more confidence than other options that are more than 10X the price.

  • Mistake #2

    Assuming it will take a long time before you can start buying notes.

    FACT: You can learn to buy notes in under 30 days.

    You need to do your homework before buying notes. But that doesn't mean you need to spend months going in circles and being unsure if you are missing something.

    The truth is that with the right process and step-by-step system you can be ready to start doing note deals in 30 days.

  • Mistake #3

    Believing that pricing notes is either one size fits all or extremely complicated.

    REALITY: Rules of thumb aren't going to cut it, but it's not that difficult either.

    Some note investors take an overly simplified approach or overly complex approach to pricing.

    The reality is that you can price notes in a way that is fast, yet accounts for the primary factors that determine value.

  • Mistake #4:

    Buying the deals that have the highest potential ROI.

    TRUTH: Risk and reward go together. If you only focus on trying to achieve eye-popping returns, you are setting yourself up to take on excessive risk.

    A balanced approach is the better way to go. Don't get drunk on yield!

    You can use the Note Scorecard to keep track of the positive and negative risk factors for each note, and use this to come up with a risk adjusted target return.

  • Mistake #5:

    Assuming there aren't enough deals out there and that note pricing is too high.

    REALITY CHECK: There is an abundance of high-quality notes available at prices that will give you higher returns with less risk than many other real estate investments.

    You just need to know where to look. Plus, the COVID pandemic has created a backlog of distressed assets.

    Now is one of the best times to get started in notes, right before the new wave of assets hit the market.

Imagine!

  • If there was a way to become an active note investor within 30 days!
  • Your retirement savings could be put to work earning higher returns with less risk!
  • You could quickly and accurately price both performing and non-performing mortgage notes!
  • You had all the systems and processes you need to build a scalable notes business!
  • There was someone with you to show you the way step by step!

About Me

Hi, I'm Dan!

I'm an active note investor who teaches real estate investors how to invest in notes so that they can find more deals with less competition, earn better returns, generate cash flow streams, and grow a business.

When I got started in notes I signed up for an expensive 'mastermind' program. While it was very helpful in getting me up and going, I found there were lots of details that were left out, and I had to learn a lot of lessons the hard way and figure out a lot of things on my own.

AND EVERYTHING CHANGED...

Since then, I built out the systems and processes needed to run a scalable notes business, and turned my note invesing into a full time business. I currently manage a multi-million dollar portfolio of >60 notes. Teaching has always been a passion of mine, and I love helping fellow investors learn how to get become active note investors.

I'm a former aerospace engineer with an MBA, and product manager in the tech industry who has been an active investor since age 19. I live in Colorado and have 2 amazing girls, and suffer from a serious golf obsession.

Why I created this:

I wanted to package up what I learned and share it with more people.

I chose to create this course because for far too long note investing has been a small niche within real estate investing, with access limited to people who were either fortunate enough to get exposed to the industry through a prior career, or spend exorbitant amounts of money on training.

I also believe that the ability to earn higher returns, help borrowers, and grow a notes business should be accessible to more people.

What people are saying about Note Launchpad

Great step by step manual

Kamila T

Dan put together great step by step, easy to follow manual to get going in Note investing. His engineering background really shines in the organization of the course. His teaching style is straight to the point and he explains the ups and downs of the Note investing. He brings up the big earning potential with Notes but also cautions about the down falls which sometimes gets forgotten with other courses. Course includes variety of spreadsheets which will save you time in evaluation of the Notes. The last section about Funding your Growth is really eye opening for all the possibilities out there with Note investing. I would really recommend this for someone looking to get started. Following his steps will help you dot your I's and cross your T's.

Not a 40,000 foot view of notes

Joey P

Dan is extremely experienced in the notes industry, not only through constant study and education, but also real world experience. This course is not a 40,000 foot view of the note industry, but an in-depth, step-by-step, first hand account of what the note industry is and how you can play a successful part in it. I strongly recommend the course.

Much more than an investing course

Brett B

The Note Launchpad Course is an investing course and so much more. The biggest takeaway is something that’s rarely covered in detail - systems. Knowing how to buy is great but knowing the system post-sale is gold.

Well organized and extremely useful

Derek L

In note investing, Dan is one of the good guys. His ethics, background, investing approach, and experience stand to benefit new and experienced note investors alike. I've personally invested with Dan, and feel the knowledge he's providing is extremely high-value.

Very useful to a beginner

WIlliam L

I found Dan Deppen`s Note Launchpad course to be very useful to me, a beginning note investor. The course is well organized and offers extremely useful information to individuals that are ready to invest and become a part of the Note business niche. From tips on launching a business website to a wide range of contact information for Title companies, Loan servicers, Insurance companies, BPO vendors, Mortgage loan originators, Attorneys and Note sellers; Note Launchpad has everything a note investor needs to feel confident starting their note business. Those already familiar with the note business will also find the the course very useful. Dan freely shows his methods for evaluating performing and non performing notes and offers common sense advice and encouragement.

Note Launch is EXACTLY the program I have been seeking

Catherine B

I met Dan at a Guru’s Mastermind a couple years ago and left those events inspired and better connected to vendors, but lacked the critical foundation I needed to buy a note let alone launch a note business. Over the years, Dan has done the heavy lifting to figure-out the note industry and he is sharing what he’s learned! I now have a road map with actionable steps, systems and processes, do and don’ts and insight into who to contact for what in this business. All of this has removed the fear and overwhelm that has prevented me from getting started in the first place.
