Some Logical Reasons Why the First Mortgage Real Estate Notes We Offer are Stable Investments They are safe at all times, during financial and business depressions, as well as in prosperous times. Our serial method of making a specified number of the. notes payable annually or semi-annually reduces the outstanding indebtedness without releasing any of the security. The reduction of the loan is more than sufficient to cover any reasonable depreciation in the property mortgaged. “

You will receive an unchanging income payable semi-annually. This income will be paid promptly and with no more trouble to you than cashing a check, regardless of where you reside. • Your investment will run for a certain number of years and then mature. The date when the note matures will depend on your selection when investing. The genuineness of each note is certified thereon by the Mercantile Trust Company, thus preventing forgery or over-issue. The Legal Department of this Company has examined and approved the title to the property securing the notes. The property mortgaged has been personally inspected and appraised by experts in our employ. The loan in each case has been closely investigated and judgment passed upon the same by the officers and directors of the Mercantile Trust Company. If the loan is approved, we buy the entire issue of notes and then offer them for sale so as to be in a position to make other loans. Our profit is the commission charged the borrower.
