Private money lenders typically care more about the deal than they care about your credit score. They want to know you have a solid track record of flipping in order to feel good about handing you a six-figure check. They want to be protected by having a first deed of trust (mortgage) on the property, so their money is secured by a hard asset. Did I say track record? Because I’ve found that it’s the most important thing these savvy individuals look for in an investor. Where does this leave the new investor with little to no track record? Well, sometimes you have to start with some hard money loans before you can graduate to a better deal on your lending But that isn’t always the case, especially when working with people who know you and believe in you. If the deal is sound a hard money lender will take your deal and run with it!
