What’s your experience been like with traditional lenders vs. private options like ours?

You need to drive short distance on private street and then up ~150’ driveway.  

I will have people that expect to rent my nicely renovated 4/3 3000sf with private pool, fenced yard on a lake for $100/night because they saw some other dump a couple blocks down for that price.

There is a lot of misconceptions still, about what it is, how it is mined and how it could penetrate daily lives even more than the internet did and does. 100k is the low end...Mcafee ( the security software guy) is a coin miner and says that he bets bitcoin hits 1 million by 2020 or he will eat his own private parts.

Hi There - We have had several clients make the numbers work here in Chicago typically with either FHA 203k and home style renovation loans.I continue to remind everyone that a single or walk right now will be a double, triple, or even a home run down the road. 

You might study up on this Atlanta business that is growing their business with private offerings (funding)   padsplit.comThey have a shades of gray solutoin for the unrelated adults, and rooming house zoning that is sort of working in the Atlanta area.   

No, you’re free to do a private deal.

Would you be better putting the $100k in the stock market, or in a treasury bill at 4% or do private lending at 10-12%? 

You can take it to private massaging if you want to avoid posting about it.

I'd probably go back and listen to a year's worth of podcasts and see if you like his style and info.
