Hello everyone, I have recently gone under contract on a property and was able to agree to a private loan with a family member to purchase and renovate.

Now we are mostly scaling our business with larger communities but I've used many different creative finance strategies including seller finance, private lending, hard-money, collateral from other properties, and lease-options. 

We do not have contacts with private lenders at this time.

I first got started in real estate investing working for a real estate private equity firm in NYC.

In our still relatively limited experience, seller financiers are usually looking to get a higher asking price in exchange for the favor of the private loan. 

Credit cards have the same limitation on the amount you can borrow and will likely end up costing more than private lenders.

I am interested in utilizing space again for group meetings, workshops, and for clients who may still desire private space.

I'm in a number of social groups for private lenders and have run into a lot of scams.

I should have elaborated in how the utilities are handled.Septic is the only private utility, and thus is my responsibility.

If you’re looking to connect with private lenders, start by tapping into your existing network—friends, family, and colleagues can often be a great starting point.
