Taken from our Series 65 Online Guide

2.12.1. Mortgage-Backed Securities

A mortgage-backed security (MBS) is a bond backed by the mortgage payments of a pool of mortgages. From an investor’s perspective, an MBS is similar to any other kind of bond, except instead of receiving a fixed coupon payment, the investor receives monthly interest payments that vary depending on how quickly homeowners pay off their mortgages. That is, an investor who purchases a $1,000 mortgage-backed security will receive monthly interest payments that are based on the interest and principal payments of the underlying mortgages.

I had my licenses but I let them lapse after I sold my firm. Now we're starting a new firm and I needed a refresher and studied your book and used the exam simulator. I passed the Series 65 and your materials were a big help. Now I am back for the Series 7 and I want your book, audio book and exam simulator. Thanks for an excellent product.

Very good material and well planned to help you pass the first time (Series 65). The audio tape structure is easy to listen to along with the reading material. Clear and to the point. Nothing dry about your material. Thank you. Highly recommend.

I passed my Series 65 today with an 80, first effort! Not only was the material well laid out, but if it's possible, the Solomon prep made the material palatable and understandable. Amazing!!! I have used Kaplan in the past as well as STC, which are both very good, but I chose Solomon because it had audio downloads. With an hour commute, I was able to study during that otherwise wasted time. Additionally, the "Ask the Professor" and live chat features were excellent!! Questions were answered virtually immediately by personal email and the author/owner Jeremy Solomon actually called me to help me and cheer me on! I didn't think this kind of customer service and general human kindness existed anymore. He even asked me to let him know personally my results which, thanks to this program, I am on the other side of this very difficult exam. Thank you Solomon Exam Prep!!!!!

I did so many practice exams with Solomon and never saw one question twice. The quality of study material is thorough, with a touch of humor, and gives it to you in many formats (visual both on the computer or in book format if you wish), as well as audio that you can listen to in the car, as well as the benefit of videos of actual lectures from professors. I felt as though getting the information in all those formats allowed me to really grasp the information using different senses and facilitated the learning process even further.
