The private loans I create have escrow accounts set up on ALL loans after realizing that MOST borrowers will not pay their taxes and insurance when due each year without an escrow account.  

Private lenders charge 9-18%, with 0 to 8 points.  

My short term goals are to start introducing people to Private money.

Simply put you will need to buy the home from her as-is all cash or private money, make your repairs and then sell for profit. 

I never mind if a tenant/owner is around I just talk a little less, and hold my thoughts till I'm in private with my client.

The plan is to purchase the properties with private or hard money, rehab and refinance out of the initial loan using standard 30 year fixed mortgages.

Start trying to network with some private money lenders and start chatting up your circle of influence if you're interested in finding a PML.

I have a hard time trying to find a private Leander. 

If you double close you will have to actually have the total amount to close on the property or you will need a short term private loan for the double close. 

I will send you a private message so we can discuss more.Thanks!
