Good warning - there is a lot of variability out there with hard money lenders (and by that I mean that a lot of scammers/bad apples out there), quick perusal of their website shows no google reviews and their social buttons (facebook, twitter) were dead links - IMO in this day and age you should never go with a lender that doesn't have a rock solid reputation and track record that can be confirmed with a 5-minute google search and perusal

And, FYI, simply doing the screening makes most bad apples self-select out, so you don't have to deal with them.

So believe it or not it's the "Apple" of Real estate at this point .

I like to change things around (such as modifying the ROE in your case) so I can compare apple to apples.

Mail with a lump in it, pen, magnet, fake key, use your imagination, the lumpier the better.
