Conventional lenders won't / can't lend if there is a seller carried component to a transaction...you'd have to look to private money...or avoid the bank altogether...

I had a few questions about Private Lending and what it would take to be a Private Lender.1.

The idea is to stage, to decorate a place to sold it much more quickly.

Contractors and developers where building spec homes left and right and not waiting for someone to buy them first before building because they would get sold the second they where finished.

I certainly wouldn't do this with high interest private or hard money.

My wife and I sold our house and moved into my in-laws so we could get this investment thing going. 

I'm in the Chicago area, does anyone know maybe some hard money/ private money lenders who can help me out????

I also bought my first property at the height of the market, and it has since returned to that price; though, I would still lose money in closing costs if I sold today. 

I'm looking at doing a flip and wondering what the options are for Private lending/Hard money here in Utah. 

If this is correct the answer is that value is based off of either comparable properties that have sold, or the income that the property produces.
