@Scott Tennell there might be two different definitions here to the PML term.So, if you mean you are reaching out to PML that lend money all the time and have experience doing it - then they will tell you what their requirements are.  

I’ve been involved in lending for a while and know that financing can sometimes be a bottleneck.

I'm excited for the opportunity to be apart of the community with BP, I reside in the state of Virginia and started my investment journey many years ago at 22 doing fix and flips, I stopped when the market crashed in 2007/2008 and didn't like the way the market looked and I left the investing world, I became a mortgage loan officer, and then processor and later underwriter and learned the backend of the conventional lending world.

its funny how this changes with time and the market on BP  if you asked this question 5 to 7 years ago you get drowned out with the cash flow is the ONLY thing and appreciation is for gamblers my self I have always been about making appreciation games in RE.. by either value add building a new product or buying foreclosure and flipping or lending money and getting instant 12% plus returns . 

Bird dogging is a way to make money but its not gonna get you rich.WE have had many do some birddogging for us on the private lending side to find qualified people that need a loan and its interesting how many last a few weeks - I sense the same holds true for real estate bird dogs.

Currently have 3 rentals and conventional lending has been my norm, but all the local lenders are predominantly 25% down. 

I prefer small Strip malls or self storage.I need advice on how to find the deals, how to get lending on them and then how to set up the structure.I have flexibility to fly out next month is there are peers who can meet and help me out in their local markets.thanks,Paul 

By private money, Im assuming you mean local people lending out their IRA funds and personal funds.

The lending type doesn’t matter.

DLP lending fund and DLP preferred credit fund = In solo 401k (roth or traditional) because they are tax inefficient.
