If he is into reading books, I would recommend reading two books; Investing in real estate with no (and low) money down by Brandon Turner and Raising Private Capital by Matt Faircloth.If he is into podcast, then I would recommend listening to Private Money Explained: 5 Simple ways to Find Private Money Today (Part 2) and The Rookie’s Guide to Finding Private Money for Your Next Property.Lastly, if I were his prevate lender, I would like to see how my investing will return, and I made this table that explains to my private lenders what they can expect from me (how much do you need to invest, how much interest do you get from the investment, and when do you get paid).Good luck finding several quotes, and let me know how it goes!

I was there with my wife and kids.Imagine that same scene, but with your name and business on a large banner, along with custom drink coasters with your business, and a nice color flyer on each table- with your business on it.

Even a few days ago apparently there was an extra $500 sitting on the table with my current rate and all the seller concessions allocated so I asked if the appraisal could be reimbursed so now I'm am confused as to why these latest numbers have me bringing ~ $1,400 more than my down payment to closing.Any advice is appreciated as I wait for an explanation from the lender.
