I've got to give him a shout out for finding Private Money.

Its across the street from a small private school that is buying houses all around it.

I've resorted to using the release method of wholesaling, but of course that works best with private sellers and doesn't work at all with REO's.

Look for a Hard Money/private note for 10k on a 12 month term.

This is very revealing and effective.

The airport was completely renovated and upgraded to allow for larger private jets.

I might find myself with $10k, and if I do, I want to be able to use $8K of it be a private investor because:a) I feel I can get the return in 90 - 120 day, if it's a rehab project.b) Duh!

After buying our first 2 properties with our own money, we are seeking to use OPM for our 3rd house that we just "bought" - pending inspection.We have a private money loan set for our down payment + closing costs which should be roughly $25,000.

Enter hard money lenders, as well as private lenders.A hard money loan might cost 7% of the sales price, versus 4% for a bank loan.

Are you paying all cash, using a regular loan, a HML lender, or a private lender??
