When Did Private Money Make the Difference for Your Deal?

[Margaret Steck]

I’m interested in hearing about the power of private money lending from this community. For those who’ve secured a deal (flip, rental, or creative project) using private money instead of a traditional loan:

- What was the key advantage for you?

- Was there a time private funds helped you move on a property you otherwise couldn’t have closed?

- Any unexpected challenges in sourcing or structuring private funds?

Would love to hear your stories—what worked, what didn’t, and advice for investors considering this route. If you’re open to sharing insights or want to talk through ideas, feel free to drop a comment or connect!
