Traditional bank loans with follow a standardized process and will generally take 20-30 days to close. Private lending is all over the map - could range from nearly being a bank underwrite to literally a handshake with your cousin Jim Bob. The largest differences will be flexibility (aside from pricing and rate) and the ability to finance distressed assets.
