about to get out of the service and at a crossroads. I have saved up a pretty nice chunk of cash that I want to put to work. I'm trying to decide between buying my own rental properties and being a landlord, or giving out private loans. I feel being a hard money lender is going to make me more cash quicker which would be my goal. Anybody have any experience lending and have you had any success?
