About Eddie Speed

In 1980, a young Eddie Speed was living in a cramped 10×40 mobile home, working hard, dreaming of something better, and wondering what his future would look like. He had no idea that a simple invitation from his father-in-law to join the note business would change the entire direction of his life.

Eddie entered the industry with no capital and no safety net, relying instead on sheer work ethic, cowboy common sense, and a willingness to learn through trial and error. The world of real estate notes was unfamiliar and often unforgiving, but Eddie approached every challenge with grit. Each setback became a lesson, and each small win fueled his determination to keep going.

As he learned the business from the ground up, Eddie realized something powerful. Note investing allowed him to create consistent income without tenants, repairs, or the typical headaches that come with owning property. He found himself not only succeeding at the work, but genuinely loving the strategy behind it. Understanding the details, recognizing patterns, and finding value where others saw problems quickly became his passion.

Over time, Eddie’s expertise grew—and so did his results. He went from struggling to make ends meet to completing more than 50,000 note deals, including 6,000 in just the past few years. His ability to see opportunities others missed earned him a reputation as one of the sharpest minds in the industry.

But Eddie’s real turning point came when he began teaching. In 1999, he founded NoteSchool with one clear mission: to give other people the same life-changing opportunities that had transformed his own future. His teaching style was different from anything else in the market. It was built on real deals, real experience, and practical wisdom—not theory. It resonated with investors from every background.

As the industry evolved, Eddie did too. He became a trusted partner to hedge funds and institutional buyers, gaining access to exclusive deal flow that individual investors simply could not reach. He used this access to create new pathways for his students, opening doors that had never been available before.

Today, Eddie Speed is widely recognized as a pioneer in the note investing space. He has mentored more than 2,000 students, helping them build wealth, achieve financial independence, and rethink what’s possible in real estate. His influence has reshaped the entire landscape of note investing education.

And through it all, Eddie has stayed grounded. He has never forgotten where he started. He continues to innovate, explore new strategies, and share everything he learns with the community he helped build.

Eddie’s journey from a 10×40 mobile home to becoming a millionaire note investor is more than a success story. It is a testament to resilience, lifelong learning, and the transformational power of the note business. Through NoteSchool, Eddie is passing on a legacy of financial empowerment that will continue changing lives for generations.
