Fast Start Investor Guide to Get Private Money

Hi, this is Frank Chen with REIClub.com, the only site you need as a real estate investor. Today I've got a quick video overviewing the process of Getting Private Money.

One of the most common reasons why real estate investment deals go bad is the lack of funding. Unless you're independently wealthy already, you're going to run out of cash before you run out of deals.

How often have you found a sweet deal, only to realize that you can't finance it yourself?

Private money will open these doors for you in your real estate investment business.

How to Get Private Money?

Getting private money is different from traditional funding and other alternatives (hard money, lines of credit) because your approval process is based on your credentials and your track record of profit generation, not purely on credit and liquid cash.

• work with individual lenders not limited by sec rules
• more flexibility when you need money quickly
• more flexibility with deal structuring

Finding the Ideal Private Lenders

• not everyone with money is considered a good private money lender
• Know who you're looking for, be aware of your approach
• Opening questions “Where are you from?” or “What do you do for a living?
• Watch body language, don't judge by looks, watch for reactions
• Don't be pushy, be persistent don't be a used car salesman
• Looking For: Someone with savings, 401K, bad experience with stock market, tired of low interest returns

Fear of Public Speaking

• Anxiousness is a form of insecurity, and is cured by preparation.
