Private money lending is a completely different way to invest in real estate. Instead of flipping houses or owning rental properties, you become the lender. You provide capital to real estate investors and secure the loan with real estate.

I walk through my experience starting with $50,000, how I find borrowers, how private money lenders make money through interest and fees, why I focus on short-term real estate loans, and how I think about protecting principal and managing risk.

I also cover some of the most important parts of real estate lending, including first-position mortgages, promissory notes, personal guarantees, property insurance, lender's title insurance, borrower underwriting, ARV, comparable sales, rehab budgets, and loan-to-value considerations.
