I hear a lot about Hard money Lenders, Private money, etc etc
What are some things or requirements that I should keep in mind or make a check list of before pursuing a hard money loan or private money?
Hopefully I’ve worded this correctly.
Thanks.

Private doesn't look at income and is fully based on credit and the property. They're typically long term, while hard money is short term. Hard money is usually 12-24 months and at a much higher rate. Private lending can be low 5's while hard money is usually 8% - 12%.
