Let’s talk about the importance of paying for licensed servicing companies to handle your loans.
There are some dangers that are involved with self servicing your loans. I know that a lot of note investors do, so let’s back up a little bit in case you might not know what servicing companies and servicers do.
Servicing companies are an integral part of your exterior team. They are licensed debt collectors, and they handle not only communication with your borrower, but they are the company where the borrower sends their monthly payment. The servicing company takes that payment and records it against that borrower’s loan, and then disperses that money, that payment, out to you every month.
It’s not illegal to self service your loans. However, sometimes you get a borrower that is going to challenge the accuracy of your records, and that can become complicated. When you have a servicing company that is a licensed debt collector, they have well documented records that will protect you.
Avoid the “he-said-she-said” situations that can cause you to lose the argument by servicing your own loans, and instead work with a licensed servicing company to secure your invested dollars.
