A straightforward way to sell your mortgage note
Mortgage Note Capital is a direct buyer of private mortgage notes, owner-financed notes, and land contracts. We built the company around a simple idea: selling a note should be clear, fair, and free of pressure.
Who we are
Mortgage Note Capital was founded by Adam Lambert to give note holders a transparent, direct alternative when they want to turn future payments into cash today. We are a direct buyer — we purchase and hold the notes we buy rather than acting as a broker who marks them up and re-sells them. That means when you work with us, you're dealing with the actual decision-maker, not a middleman.
Our roots are in real estate and data-driven valuation, and that shows in how we operate. We believe a note holder deserves to understand why a note is worth what it's worth — so we publish a free note value calculator, write plain-English guides and a glossary, and explain the reasoning behind every quote we make.
How we value notes
We price notes the way the math actually works: a note is worth the present value of its remaining payments, discounted at a yield that reflects its risk. From there we weigh the interest rate, the payment history (seasoning), the equity behind the note (loan-to-value), the lien position, the property itself, and the foreclosure process in the note's state — because a fast non-judicial state and a slow judicial state produce very different recovery risk. We explain this openly in our how-it-works guide. There are no secret formulas.
What we buy
We purchase a broad range of private paper — residential and commercial mortgage notes, non-performing notes, land contracts, and promissory notes — both performing and in default. We buy nationwide, with particular depth in Texas and the Southeast, where the most owner-financed notes are created.
Our approach
Transparency
We show our math. You can estimate your note’s value yourself with our calculator, and every quote we send explains how we arrived at the number.
Fair pricing
We price notes on real present-value math and the factors that genuinely drive risk — not on lowball tactics. We encourage you to compare our offers.
No pressure
A quote is free and carries no obligation. We’d rather you make an informed decision than a rushed one, even if that means walking away.
We do what we say
A direct buyer with a single point of contact. The person you talk to is the person who gets your deal done.
