Investing Trends

Looking for private money for real estate investing? Well then, you're already in the right place… the internet! If you have spent much time online, browsing or doing concentrated searches, you have probably already found several websites that focus on using private money to fund your real estate deals.

One search you should do immediately is "private money for real estate investing." You'll be amazed at the number of sites that are returned. One recent search on Google yielded 6,150,000 results. Of course, not all of them are tightly focused on the topic – in fact, MOST probably aren't – but the top 20-30 were very relevant. Some of those also proved to be quite informative.

You could shorten your search term to "private money real estate investing" or simply "private money" and see what kind of results you get. A recent MSN search on that term yielded 36,543,981 web page results. Wow… try surfing those in an evening!

The great thing is, you really only need the first page or two of results to gather some top-notch information, much of it free or low-cost.

Many of the search results also include the term "hard money lender" so don't get confused. Hard Money is definitely NOT the same as Private Money for real estate investing purposes. Hard money is usually a very high cost option focused on higher risk, short term rehab transactions. Private money, on the other hand, is simply using a network of private, non-institutional lenders to fund various types of real estate transactions. The cost is often LOWER than conventional financing alternatives.

Don't be fooled by hard money sites masquerading as private money lenders. They're NOT the same.
