I hated doing the engineering and would have preferred being RE, but there were some MAJOR advantages to doing the engineering while I did it:- Had a steady paycheck while I 'figured out' real estate and where I fit in with it, and benefits of course- The company was contributing to my 401K while I was there which ended up being free money I used later to buy real estate- It gave me time to really figure out my niche in real estate.

If you're talking about a hard money lender (who may prefer to be called private money lender), they will lend the money into the LLC once the deal has been reviewed and approved, taking a security interest in the property (mortgage or deed of trust), and most likely a personal guarantee from at least one partner in the LLC.if you're talking about actually taking on an investor partner in a deal, then they would be a member of the LLC and how the money comes into the partnership would be negotiated up front and dealt with in the partnership agreement.
