About this episode

Dawn Rickabaugh discusses a real-life case study on profiting from a 0% owner-financed note.

In this episode of Property & Paper Live, Dawn Rickabaugh walks through a real-life partial note purchase involving a unique church property financed at 0% interest. Using actual numbers, she demonstrates how investors can create strong yields through properly structured partials—even when the underlying note carries no interest. Along the way, Dawn explains how she solved a seller's urgent cash-flow problem, discusses underwriting considerations, and illustrates why understanding amortization and deal structure is far more important than simply looking at the note's interest rate. It's a practical case study that shows how creative note investing can create win-win financial solutions for everyone involved.
