I think you are a little confused… you don’t “Create a Note” to go and bid and buy foreclosed properties at a foreclosure auction.
However if you are dealing in the pre-foreclosure, foreclosure auction/ sale, or POST-foreclosure arenas then your investor friend could LEND you the funds to acquire some of these properties and simply secure his loaned funds to you by recording a mortgage (or Trust Deed) against the property. This is your investors collateral security for the loaned funds provided to you.
A competent Real Estate attorney, title company, etc. can handle these transactions for you. Don’t be “pennywise and pound foolish” and try and do these forms, etc. by yourself the first several times through. It is far better to enlist the assistance of competent personal who are familar with the paperwork involved in these types of loans and then have them hanlde the transactions for you UNTIL you have it down cold.
Best to your success,
