Four Steps to a Private Hard Money Loan

Date: 29 May 2010 Comments: 0

There’s no enigma to getting a loan from a private hard money lender.   Ever wonder why successful real estate investors are able to do 1 or 2 deals every single month ?

They copy success.

There are four basic steps

Step 1-
They don’t just sit out the game.

Investors who are getting it done are submitting loan packages to private hard money lenders. They might submit the same property to several lenders to get it closed. They might submit several deals each and every month.  They make a couple of good offers a week, week after week

Step 2-

Try not to become obsessed with the property.  rather, fall in love with getting regular deals done.

Spending month after month trying to find a lender who will fund that one property that you think is so great.  Swinging for “home runs” for $100,000 instead of going base for hits like $10,000, $20,000 or more.  Working against the grain.  none of these approaches work. Instead, learn lender conditions and what kinds of properties they are lending on, including for rehab hard money, and go choose the right properties that fit .

Step 3-

Do your homework.

Sloppy loan packages with incomplete documents usually don’t get approved, and if they do get approved , sometimes it just takes too long and you’ve already lost the contract.  Lenders can usually help you get your loan closed in just a few days once they get a complete package.  Some can do it in as little as 24 to 48 hours.

Step 4-

Keep your eye on appreciating geographical areas so you can establish a database or card file, of qualified, buyers already to go with their conventional loans .

When buyers begin to know that you can source property they tell others who are looking for property now, you can flip your property faster and get on to your next deal. The private hard money lenders will love you! And all the time you’ll be building a bigger and better file of qualified buyers . And you’ll be building solid relationships with private hard money lenders who will back you .

You cannot allow “analysis paralysis” to cause your business concern bogged down.  Don’t “out-think” yourself. Not every offer you make is going to get accepted  and not every loan package you submit is going to get approved and if you model the successful investors you’ll also get more deals and , many offers approved and many, many loans approved, and many, many properties sold.
Successful investors are consistent .  And they make a lot of money doing it. The Hard Money Loan Blueprint shows you package a loan request to a private hard money lender and to submit for a private hard money loan .  Once you understand the process and what the lender needs, you will have much more success, because you’ll be doing it the right way, without guessing .
