Tired of tenant calls and surprise repairs, but still want the security of real estate-backed returns? What if you could profit from the housing market without ever owning a single property?

On this episode (Ep 60) of the 5-Minute PRIME Podcast, host Martin Maxwell pulls back the curtain on one of the most powerful diversification plays for savvy investors: real estate note investing. Discover how you can "become the bank," collecting mortgage payments directly and trading the headaches of being a "Land-Lord" for the quiet efficiency of being a "Lien-Lord."
