In the world of real estate investing, success often comes to those who are willing to learn, adapt, and seize opportunities.

For Gabriel Vega and his father Albert, their journey into creative real estate financing has been nothing short of transformative.

Thanks to their involvement with NoteSchool and their decision to start investing in notes, this dynamic father-son duo from Corpus Christi, Texas, has not only expanded their knowledge but also significantly increased their deal flow and financial prospects.

Let’s take a look at their success story…

Albert Vega, a retired UPS area manager, had always believed that real estate held the key to his family’s financial future. However, it was his son Gabriel who took the initiative to explore creative financing strategies and ultimately discovered note investing.

“We always believed that the future for us was real estate because of the dynamics and opportunities,” Albert explains. “Gabriel and his wife Amanda were a big part of helping to convince me that this is the way we want to go as a family.”

Gabriel’s journey to into note investing began when he watched an interview with Eddie Speed on a podcast hosted by Mitch Stephen, a respected figure in the real estate industry. Intrigued by Eddie’s expertise in creative financing, Gabriel saw an opportunity to take their family business to the next level.

“We come from a background of subject-to deals and seller financing,” Gabriel shares. “Once we realized that Eddie’s team and network really specialize in creative terms and looking at deals differently, we thought this would be the logical next step for our continued education in real estate.”

Before joining NoteSchool, the Vega’s faced several challenges:

1. Uncertainty about creative financing terms
2. Limited network of like-minded investors
3. Difficulty finding quality deals
4. Lack of access to capital for acquisitions

NoteSchool addressed these pain points by providing:

1. In-depth education on creative financing strategies
2. Access to a vast network of experienced investors
3. Deal flow opportunities within the NoteSchool ecosystem
4. Insights on structuring deals to attract investor capital

“We wanted less stress regarding our real estate endeavors,” Gabriel explains. “Through understanding how to take down a good subject-to deal using proper paperwork, like Jeff Watson’s forms which we discovered through NoteSchool, we’re more confident in our ability to acquire properties creatively.”

One of the most surprising and valuable aspects of their NoteSchool membership has been the quality of connections they’ve made. Albert was particularly impressed after attending his first NoteSchool Summer Summit.

“The backgrounds that people come from are extremely diverse,” Albert notes. “From hard money lenders to commercial investors, single-family specialists to large real estate brokers – it’s just amazing.”

These connections have already paid dividends. Gabriel shares an exciting anecdote: “We just picked up a deal from a NoteSchool student who lives in Peru. He had an assignment contract for a property on the next street over from my residence. We’re turning it into a home for my parents to live closer to the family.”

While the Vegas have maintained their retail business for the past 20 years, they’re now focused on transitioning fully into real estate investing, specifically with notes. Gabriel explains, “This transition really allows us to have more freedom to do the things we want to do, as opposed to the day-to-day managing that the retail business requires.”

With NoteSchool’s guidance, the Vegas are not just creating income from real estate – they’re building lasting wealth. Albert reflects on their decision to join NoteSchool: “I can’t tell you how many different advantages – I’d say I’d probably categorize them more as blessings – that NoteSchool has brought us.”

For the Vega family, NoteSchool has provided:

1. Cutting-edge education on creative financing strategies
2. Regular market updates to inform investment decisions
3. A supportive community of like-minded investors
4. Increased deal flow and profitability
5. A clear vision for their family’s financial future

Albert sums up their experience: “The vision we had to start with was razor-sharp and clarified for us. This is where we’ve got to be, this is the direction we need to go in, and this is the team and partnership we need to align ourselves with.”
