Publisher's summary

This book is written as an introduction to the concepts and benefits of private lending in the real estate space.

In this book, you’ll discover:

  • Private lending is a lucrative skill in the real estate sector.
  • Real-life stories from ordinary people doing extraordinary things.
  • Private lending gives a speedy turnaround on your investment.
  • Actual case studies from all over America.
  • Being a private lender is easier than flipping houses or being a landlord.
  • Returns are much higher with lending money privately.
  • Know the language of real estate investing.

My name is Steven VanCauwenbergh and I have been a real estate investor for over 20 years. I haven't seen a book written that clearly sheds light on private lending for people seeking a return on their money and for you to play a role as a passive investor.

Our retirement accounts are too volatile not to take notice of the power of real estate investing from appreciation, diversification and letting other investors do the heavy lifting.

Participating in private lending, I’ve found it is difficult to explain the process. This book helps solve that issue. This quick listen will give you a clear-cut viewpoint to make the right decision if private lending is for you and the benefits for your portfolio.

In private lending, there is an immediacy that benefits everybody.
