Investment Info:Large multi-family (5+ units) private money loan investment.

Back o the original question assuming the 1st loan will allow a 2nd smaller local banks will be your best bet or a true Private Lender.

Agreed, the "Syndication", "Private Equity Real Estate" or "DST" model are all variations of the same theme: - Pay money to sponsor who is supposed to be an expert investor.- Give them complete control over your money in the context of the deal or fund. - Wait and hope that they deliver returns. 

But honestly with the private lenders, it is really just the rep you work with that makes a huge difference.

@Adaze FoltzI've been both a recipient and an originator of many private loans.Provided you are working with a legitimate and experienced private lender, I see TWO main benefits:1.

Hi Keri,When it comes to rehab projects, the qualifications can vary depending on whether you're dealing with an institutional private lender or a private lender investor.

Is it more because of a borrower not qualifying traditionally, property not qualifying, or they can get a better deal going private?

My returns also got a bit too complicated with niche REI stuff for the great tax guy I used for many years and still does my parents and sisters taxes.They handle other REI guys and attend some REIA groups I went to and knew about bonus depreciation, K1, cost segs, schedule E and HELOC junk used for investing and private lending.

If I decide to do this I have a private loan in place that would be for 250k at about 6%.
