Key takeaways:
Note buyers spend days for title checks because verifying the title is a critical step in the due diligence process when buying real estate notes. Ensuring that the title is clear and free from any legal issues or encumbrances is essential to protect the buyer's investment and avoid potential legal complications in the future.

Traditionally, note buyers perform a title check and request a BPO report after the bid has been declared victorious at the auction. Why? The fact is that it requires time and money costs, and why bear them if you do not become the future owner of this debt.

What does the existing approach lead to - a bid first, a due diligence later?

Most often, this leads to the fact that the buyer loses in the auction, because he cannot objectively assess the quality of the notes. And it has to discount an offer. Or maybe the downside is that the price is too high, and when checking it is revealed that, for example, this property has a large tax lien. Then the deal just falls apart.

Who holds a mortgage note?

The mortgage note is the legal document that proves ownership of the mortgage loan to the lender or investor. A mortgage-backed securities investor is one potential buyer of a note that has been sold by the original lender. Payments due from the borrower are to be made to the note holder, who may also opt to sell or transfer the note to another person. The capacity to collect mortgage payments or foreclose in the case of default is dependent on the lender's ability to track down the note's current holder.
