Holding a Texas Mortgage Note? Here’s What You Should Know

American Funding Group has been purchasing private mortgage notes since 1989. We buy Texas mortgage notes and deeds of trust secured by residential, commercial, and land properties, including both performing and problem notes.

Every note is different. Its value depends on the terms of the note, payment history, property and equity, remaining payments, lien position, borrower and documentation. We’ll review those details and explain the options available to you.

Depending on what you’re trying to accomplish, that might mean selling the entire note, selling only a portion of your future payments, or deciding that keeping the note makes more sense.

💬 Why Texas Note Holders Consider Selling

Every situation is different. Some note holders want access to cash for a specific purpose, while others simply want to explore whether continuing to receive monthly payments still makes sense.

  • 🧠 Reduce the responsibility of managing a privately held note
  • 🚫 Avoid dealing with late payments or servicing issues
  • 💡 Reinvest in another property, business, or opportunity
  • 🧾 Raise cash while keeping part of the note through a partial sale

What Kinds of Notes Do We Buy in Texas?

We purchase many types of privately held Texas real estate notes, including performing and problem notes secured by residential, commercial, and land properties.

Residential Notes in Texas

If you sold a Texas home using owner financing, we may be interested in purchasing the mortgage note or deed of trust. We buy notes secured by owner-occupied homes, rental properties, condos, townhomes, and other residential real estate.

Owner-Financed Deeds of Trust

Seller financing in Texas is commonly secured by a deed of trust. If you’re receiving payments from the buyer of a property you sold, we can evaluate the note and deed of trust and explain your options for selling all or part of the remaining payments.

Land Contracts & Contracts for Deed

We also evaluate Texas land contracts, contracts for deed, and other seller-financed real estate agreements. Because these transactions can be structured differently from a traditional note and deed of trust, we’ll review the documents and circumstances before determining the available purchase options.

Commercial Mortgage Notes

We purchase seller-financed notes secured by many types of commercial real estate, including multifamily, retail, office, and light industrial properties. Commercial notes are evaluated individually based on the note terms, payment history, property, equity, borrower, and documentation.

Partial Notes (Sell Part of Your Payments)

You don’t have to sell your entire mortgage note. If you need cash for a specific purpose, a partial sale may allow you to sell a portion of your future payments while keeping the remaining interest in the note. Once the purchased payments have been received, the remaining payments return to you according to the agreed structure.

A Real-Life Texas Partial Note Sale

We recently worked with a Texas family who held a performing seller-financed note secured by a ranch. They wanted access to some of their equity before the note’s future balloon payment, but that didn’t necessarily mean selling the entire note.

We evaluated both a full sale and a partial sale. After understanding the alternatives, the family chose the partial-sale option that better fit what they were trying to accomplish.

Non-Performing Notes (Texas)

A late-paying or non-performing note isn’t necessarily unsellable. We evaluate problem notes individually, looking at the payment history, property and equity, lien position, borrower circumstances, documentation, and other factors that affect the note’s value. If you’re dealing with missed payments or another problem, we’ll review the situation and explain whether purchasing the note may be an option.
