I am new to the idea of notes, I understand what the note is, but I am trying to find out if they can be used as a derivative instrument to boost the profitability of real estate deals or to even hedge against the inherent risk of the real asset. I also would like to know if note cash flow can be used to finance deals. Currently I am trying to put together a strategy for an individual who wants to purchase a very expensive piece of property, but is pretty risk averse. Are there any suggestions as to what I might want to look at doing?
