buy and holds

[Ronnie Neal]

Are their prvate loans for a purchase plus rehab for a buy and hold?

[Ned Carey]

Yes of course. There are private loans for anything if you can negotiate them. 

Your question makes me think you are confusing a private loan with a hard money loan.

A private loan comes from a friends, family or associates that loan to you because they trust and respect you. I would not consider anyone who has a specific lending criteria to be a "Private lender" They are a professional lender and would fall in the category of Hard money lender. 

In my area it is very hard to get a Hard money loan for rentals. The reason is it is very hard to get a commercial loan to refinance the hard money lender out when the property is up and running. That used to be a common strategy and may work in your area.
