Become a Hard Money Lender

What is Hard Money Lending?

Real estate investors secure short-term, high-interest loans in order to flip properties. As opposed to traditional lending, hard money loans are based on the profitability of the deal, not on the borrower’s job and credit history.

At The Investor's Edge, we find and train real estate investors, and then facilitate the funding of their deals from our pool of accredited investors. These financial investors typically do little work aside from providing capital. We do the work of vetting the borrower and the deal. We then see the project through to completion.

We Believe in Greater Freedom and Security

We believe in freedom from the stock market ups and downs, to stop working 80 hours per week, and to know that your children's children can live comfortably free from financial demands.

  • Maybe you're a working professional with a high salary and are tired of 6% returns.
  • Maybe you are nearing retirement and think your nest egg should have grown more by now.
  • Maybe you’re tired of paying commissions to Wall Street salesmen to manage your money poorly.
  • Maybe you’re ready to take back control of your financial future and get something done.
  • Maybe you’re a seasoned real estate investor and now want to start lending money instead of borrowing money.
  • Maybe you’re an experienced hard money lender and want someone else to find and manage deals for you.

No Experience Required

When we have a deal ready to be funded, we'll send out an email and text message to alert you. All you have to do is check out the deal, respond, and then wire the money at the right time.

While we approve each deal, we do provide you all the information you need to make an informed decision should you decide to dig deeper. You don't need any real estate or lending experience because we have plenty ourselves.

Industry-Leading Risk Mitigation

Each of the borrowers goes through an application and screening process, and then we thoroughly review each deal before sending it to you. Our borrowers are also required to create a special purpose entity for each deal to make any potential foreclosure process smoother and improve the chances of profitability in that scenario.

Furthermore, you’ll never wire money straight to us. All funds are sent to the title/closing attorneys and then directly from the title/closing attorneys back to you after reselling of the property. Most improprieties with other hard money lenders are a direct result of them holding your money. That’s not the case with us.

Financial Investor Property Review Videos

As an approved accredited investor, you're going to receive a lot of potential deals that you could become the lender.

We also send out property review videos so you can see how the deal went and to give you context on what to expect as an accredited investor with us.

Below is an example of a property review.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can fund deals? You must be an accredited investor, which means you’ve earned $200k ($300k for joint income) each of the past two years, or you have a net worth of over $1 million excluding your primary residence.
Why do real estate investors pay such high interest rates for their deals? Because they are short-term deals, high interest rates are expected because of the higher risk. A conventional bank charges low interest for long-term loans. Hard money lenders must charge higher interest or the return on a 6-month loan wouldn’t make financial sense. Our borrowers average $47,884 net profit per paid-off loan, even with the high interest rate.
What happens if a borrower defaults? In that rare situation, we’ll take back the property, finish the project, and then split the profit on the deal with you. Your money gets tied up a little longer than normal, but usually you’ll end up with double digit returns.
How do we vet the borrowers and the deals? Our borrowers go through a two-step application and a two-step interview process. Before they submit deals, they must pass a 17-step value certification course. We then evaluate the deal, after which a local, third party expert visits the property and confirms the values we’ve established. Our borrowers are then each assigned a former general contractor to work with them through the rehab process.
