Hedge Funds - Banks - Mortgage Lenders

[Rob McLaughlin]

Without a doubt 2014 is the beginning of a new era in the Real Estate Lending Industry. Can anyone clarify the relationships of these three lending institutions. I think we have to determine this before we can attempt to understand the new concept of "Institutional Crowdfunding".

It sounds like Institutional Crowdfunding of Loans is just a new name for the same old players but may now include Hedge Fund Operators that have made themselves "accredited" and without "accreditation" you can not participate in buying into your slice of the Institutional Lending Pie?

The only new twist is that now with all the hundreds of thousands of homes that these have, ah-em, acquired(?) Institutional Lenders are now REO Owner Financing if not rehabbing to owner finance.

Does Instutional Crowdfunding = a Super PAC?
