I'm interested in networking with other investors and private lenders.

You might bump into some money guys there, know they aren't "private lenders" they are hard money lenders fishing in the waters.You'll also find leaches there, (not a derogatory term) it's very acceptable practice in RE for an experienced person to team up with inexperienced players to get a deal done, these experienced types just leach onto newbies and work deals, there are some who do nothing but leach deals providing themselves with more opportunities with less effort.

For some reason Biggerpockets isn't letting me message you privately from my iPhone but I'd be happy to talk if you send me one back.Cheers.

I am just starting trying to learn as much as possible about real estate investing.would be interested in all facets but would concentrate on wholesaling and possible private lending.

If everyone's credit is really that bad (the only way to know is to actually go to a few banks for HELOC's and have them tell you no) then getting private or hard money would be an option.

But, since I didn't do that I will now need to use a 25% down loan for my next property and I am looking for private money much earlier than anticipated!  

I close on my 5th house in about 5 days and It will be funded by a private investor.

Originally posted by Account Closed:I wondered. how could I structure this instead Finding a money partner, a "private lender" is a personal, one on one matter, they need to be people known to you and who you have had business with or introduced to you by an associate, friend of family.

Namely; a CPA can talk about how the IRS views things based on their Private Letter Opinions/former controversy before the USDC, or before administrative tribunals.
