Nathan Turner- Building wealth with real estate

Nathan Turner is known across the U.S. as “The Canadian Note Guy.” After running several businesses, including fix-and-flip real estate, he discovered mortgage notes and the opportunities they provide in the U.S. in 2009. Since then, he has become a leader in the private investment sector of the mortgage note industry.

Nathan is the President of Earnest Inc. and the manager of the U.S.-based Earnest Investing LP note fund, where he actively manages assets for accredited passive investors. His focus is on purchasing both performing and non-performing first-lien mortgages throughout the United States.

He is also the owner and host of the Diversified Mortgage Expo, a leading annual note conference known for its education-first, no-pitch environment. The event brings together investors who want to learn, network, and grow within the mortgage note space.
