Episode Details

Eddie Speed has closed 50,000+ note deals in 45 years — and says the next 3–5 years may be the best window for note investing he's ever seen.

In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss sits down with Eddie Speed, founder of NoteSchool, for a conversation 45 years in the making. Eddie has closed over 50,000 note deals, trained thousands of investors, and watched the real estate market cycle through every imaginable condition — and he's more fired up about notes right now than at any point in his career.

Topics covered include:

• Why the next 3–5 years could be the greatest window for note investing Eddie has ever seen
• How banks outperform landlords in inflationary markets — and why 2021 Facebook posts got it wrong
• The difference between confidence and arrogance — and why confidence is the #1 driver of investor action
• Eddie's origin story: starting in notes at age 20 in a 10x40 mobile home and scaling to 50,000+ deals
• Why people aren't buying information — they're buying confidence
• The note investing myth Eddie has been trying to kill for 25 years (seller financing without underwriting)
• Notes on blockchain — the innovation Eddie says is the most exciting thing he's ever worked on
• Why AI gets note-specific questions wrong and what to do about it
• How Eddie manages severe dyslexia while running a major training business
• The John Travolta story (you'll have to listen for this one)

This episode is essential for:

• Investors questioning whether notes make sense in today's market
• Landlords frustrated by rising expenses and compressed margins
• Anyone exploring seller financing as a strategy
• Entrepreneurs who want a masterclass in staying the course and reinventing when necessary
