Learn How Banks Create Monthly Income and How Individual Investors Can Do the Same
Most investors spend their lives on one side of the transaction. They save money, buy stocks, or own rental properties while banks collect payments and earn interest from mortgage loans.
What many people don't realize is that individual investors can participate in this same asset class.
Join this free 5-day challenge and discover how mortgage note investing works, where notes come from, and how investors generate income from residential real estate without owning the property.


I'm Mario Pienaar. My wife Lorinda and I have been investing in real estate since 2006, and today we invest in mortgage notes ourselves through Ritsel Notes. We're not a course company that teaches and disappears — we put our own money in this asset class, and we built this challenge to show you how it actually works.
Day 1: What you're actually buying (hint: it's not the house)
Understand the difference between owning real estate and owning the debt secured by it, and why many investors focus on the loan rather than the property.
Day 2: The one difference that changes your risk — performing vs non-performing.
Learn the two primary categories of mortgage notes, how they work, and the different opportunities each can create.
Day 3: The real numbers on a real deal — risk, equity, and return.
Review a real-world example and see how note investors evaluate risk, equity position, and potential returns.
Day 4: Where these deals come from — and how to spot a good one.
Explore how notes enter the secondary market and the factors experienced investors review before making a purchase.
Day 5: Your 90-day plan to your first note.
See the practical steps many investors take to continue their education, review opportunities, and move toward their first note investment.
