For one, it takes forever to get the money you need, try private lenders.</p><p>I once had to wait over five months on a home without a furnace because the bank wasn't sure if they wanted to lend me money on the type of house I was rehabbing. The bank just didn't understand that you buy them ugly and cheap, then fix them up and sell them for a profit.</p><p>If only I would have used a private lender on the deal. By the time the bank got around to closing, I could have had the home fixed and sold if I'd of used a private lender.</p><p>The beauty of using private lenders, sometimes called hard money lenders, is that I have the finances I need, when I need them. There is no time lost waiting around for the bank to evaluate every aspect of my loan and dissect why they shouldn't give me the money.</p><p>This way, when a great opportunity comes my way, I can snatch up the deal before my competitors because the money is there for me and I don't have to scramble around for bank applications. Then my crew can swoop in and rehab the property before anyone else can get a loan from the bank. That is the beauty of have private lenders.</p><p>Another reason having private lenders is so beneficial is because of the flexibility you can have with loan terms. When I started using private lenders more frequently for my real estate investments, I learned that some of my lenders were willing to be flexible when it came to loan terms and payments.<br /> <br />The benefit is HUGE. Imagine that instead of monthly payments, you structure a loan so that you repay when the property is sold. As a result, cash flow is improved.</p><p>Clearly, the benefits of having private lenders is pretty remarkable. Not only do you not have to wait around for a bank loan (if you can even get one nowadays), private lenders are often flexible with loan terms and can improve your cash flow.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>Thu, 03 Jul 2008 12:36:44 ESThttp://www.trcb.com/real-estate/real-estate-investing/real-estate-investing-the-benefits-having-of-private-lenders-74.htmTRCB.comReal Estate / Real Estate Investing
