Aspen Passive Income Fund

SECURED REAL ESTATE INCOME FUND

LEARN HOW YOU CAN EARN 9% PASSIVELY.

overview

Aspen Income Fund is a residential mortgage fund designed to provide current income for investors. This secured real estate Income Fund purchases and owns a diversified portfolio of income-producing mortgages, purchased at a discount, to produce above-market returns. The Fund is secured by residential real estate across the United States.

A key challenge for many investors is finding a passive investment that generates income. Our Fund is completely passive and pays investors in cash on a monthly basis, filling this gap in income investments. 

How Does The Income Fund Work ?

When we purchase a mortgage, we essentially become the bank. So, very simply, our fund works as follows:

We receive monthly mortgage payments from our borrowers
We receive profits for borrower payoffs from refinances or sales
We pay our investors a preferred monthly return

Read our Mortgage Note Case Study to see how this process works with an actual mortgage note owned by this fund.

create consistent monthly income. These notes are generally purchased at significant discounts which
provides additional capital protection.

evaluate. Prior to purchase, every note is individually underwritten using a proprietary model. Aspen
purchases three types of notes: loan modifications, as- set-based hard money loans, and seller-financed notes.

THE FUND PURCHASES BOTH LONG-TERM AND SHORT-TERM NOTES.
THE FUND'S STRATEGY IS TWOFOLD:

Buy & hold cash-flowing, deeply discounted, long-term first and second mortgages for yield and capital gains.

Purchase or originate cash flowing, short-term, hard money loans for yield and liquidity. Excess cash is continually reinvested into new assets.

I'm an accounting professor and real estate investor. In the past, I have not had much free time to oversee my portfolio. In early 2014, Bob Fraser contacted me to tell me about Aspen. I am impressed with the Aspen team. I will be investing more funds with Aspen as I liquidate my real estate investments.
