Why Should You Even Consider Real Estate Lending?
I've been involved in Real Estate investing and loans for more than 25 years and I've seen it change over and over. In the current market it has become almost impossible to finance deals for everyone, but especially for real estate investors and the irony is that it is actually a very good time to invest in real estate. With the stock market the way it isinvestors are scared to invest.But with the number of foreclosures and short sales, there are lots of bargains available in real estate. People will always need a place to live, so the market will come back and real estate is a better bet than the stock market. But the banks have tightened their guidelines for lending so real estate investors are finding it harder to fund deals. This has created an opportunity for investors who are tired of the stock market. You can be a private money lender.
So Why Private Money Lending? Answer: AMAZING ROI !
Private Money Lenders Make Bank
If you are an investor in the stock market you have probably lost money this year. (You are not alone.) Well what if you could instead of losing money, actually make 10-12% on your money and have it secured by a first trust deed? Sound good? Keep reading.I have a list of investors and a list of property owners who need to sell at a huge discount for whatever reason. In years past, I would secure loans for the investors from what we in the business call hard money lenders. Hard money lenders loan on the value of the property and not the credit of the borrower and charge huge fees, their thinking being that if they don't get their cash, they will get the property back and re-sell it...but because of the panic that is gripping everyone these days, they have gotten so picky the rates are astronomical and in most cases, they have stopped lending all together.
Since the stock market is not paying, and the banks are paying ridiculously low rates of interest, a good option for making a high rate of return on your money saved is to finance real estate on a short term basis with real estate investors who are savvy and can get that money back to you quickly.
Is it risky? Of course there is always a risk with everything, but if done properly, the risk can be mitigated, and you can make a substantially higher return on your money than any stock or bond available these days, with much more safety.
Lend and Grow Rich
The Private Money Way
I have a list of investors who have experience buying and selling property and are able to find them for huge discounts and then resell them for a slight discount, making it a win for everyone concerned. The original seller gets his property sold, the real estate investor makes some money, and the end buyer still gets a discounted property ...so everyone wins. The only thing stopping this from happening right now is the reluctance of institutional lenders to help.This is where you come in if you are a private real estate lender.
If you have been stung by low returns in any market and would like to experience a higher rate of return, I can help. Your investment will be protected legally by iron clad recorded documents, and you will also be helping people own a home and real estate investors to make a living. I am a licensed mortgage loan officer and can explain much more about this and put you in contact with lots of investors with lots of real estate transactions waiting: In fact, I am a real estate investor myself, and I buy discounted properties to resell too, so I am very familiar with the process. When I do this, I resell the properties right away, so private money lenders who invest with me get their money back in 6 months or less.
If you are interested, you can email me at LFInvest@gmail.com and I will be able to explain more or put you in touch with investors ready to make you a higher return. Don't settle for paltry or nonexistent ROI. There is a better way!

- Thanks for the interesting info. I think that private lending is one area that many people should look into if they can trust the people they are involved with. Do your due diligence, be patient and let someone else do the dirty work of finding the properties, doing the legal work, fixing them up and selling them. YOU be the bank!
