Quote from @Chris Seveney: For those experienced in private lending: This question was posed to me in my membership group from an investor:What strategies have been most effective for scaling your loan volume to $5M+ per month?

My cost they said i could do $2,000 up front and then next couple months more payments with cold calling they offer and fee would be $9,800 plus the cold callers Virtual assisant that would be working with me.

I'm thinking of doing this myself and trying to determine what this is going to cost me.

You can expect turnover costs, losses due to vacancies, and other expenses.

The costs are not trivial, but they are less than you would pay for a nice used truck.One of the main reasons I am considering this route is the leads that are provided.

I would connect with other investors and go to a few free/low-cost meetups to start and learn from them the strategy and how they learned to do what they did.

While the right program can provide a strong ROI, it’s crucial to evaluate whether the cost fits within your budget and aligns with your current investment goals.2.

However, you have to be extremely careful financing 100% of the transaction as you still need reserves, closing costs, etc. and make sure it cash flows.You didn't mention if this would be a rental or owner occupied. 

Another costly item for them to evict us.

this is a direct relation to lack of inventory.. new construction on many markets is as robust as its ever been.. we have had spectacular years the last 3 years of course during covid was tough with supply chains but my 500k house I am now selling for 700k and my build cost have gone up by maybe 100k.. so record profits for us..
