New to BiggerPockets - Looking to connect with investors seeking hard money loans

Drew Griffin
Posted May 8 2023, 22:10

Hi everyone - my name is Drew Griffin, and I recently exited a small business venture and looking to engage motivated investors who are seeking a hard money loan for their qualified deals. I'd be looking to lend in the 50-100K range depending on the deal structure (e.g., preferred rate of return, split, fees). Looking forward to the conversations.

Drew

I've given a few private loans myself, and I met each of the borrowers at local meetups. Many people post them on the events tab - https://www.biggerpockets.com/...

Have you ever loaned money before?

 Hi @Dawn Brenengen - I appreciate your message. I have not before but looking to do so.

Lenders usually specialize initially until the get their feet wet. Sometimes they are the capital investor on a joint venture, sometimes they provide gap funding, sometimes they provide fix & flip funds. If they want long tern steady income they do provate lending.

Normally they have to build a track record in order to attract borrowers, which also gives them time to learn the ins and outs of lending. 

Which are you trying to accomplish?
