Private Lending 101: How to Earn Passive Income Backed by Real Estate πΈπ
Private lending is one of the most powerful passive income strategies in real estate β and you donβt need to be a millionaire or own any property to get started.
This guide will walk you through what private lending is, how it works, what makes it safe, and what kind of returns you can expect.
ποΈ What Is Private Lending?
Private lending is when you loan your money to a real estate investor (like us) to help purchase, renovate, or refinance a property. In return, you receive:
A notarized promissory note outlining the repayment terms
A fixed interest rate (ours is 10% annually)
Quarterly payments (or interest paid at maturity)
Collateral (your loan is backed by the real estate asset)
Think of it like becoming the bank β without the stress of managing tenants, toilets, or contractors.
β Why People Choose Private Lending
Hereβs why itβs so attractive to busy professionals, retirees, and anyone looking for better returns than a savings account or bond:
π Steady Returns: Earn 10% annually on secured capital
β° Predictable Cash Flow: We pay quarterly like clockwork
π° Passive: You donβt manage the property or deal with real estate headaches
πΌ Secured: Your investment is protected by a legal note and real estate collateral
π€ Relationship-Based: You work directly with us, not a giant faceless fund
π€ How a Typical Deal Works
We find a flip or BRRRR property
You loan funds for purchase or rehab
You receive a promissory note + repayment schedule
We renovate, rent, or sell the property
You get paid interest quarterly (or at the end)
Principal is returned at the end of the term (typically 12β18 months)
π‘ What Makes It Safe?
We protect our private lenders with:
Notarized legal agreements
Conservative deal analysis (ARV, rehab, exit strategies)
Real estate as collateral (recorded lien or deed of trust, if applicable)
Regular updates and full transparency
πΆ What Kind of Returns Can I Expect?
Standard rate: 10% annualized
Payments: Quarterly (ACH or check)
Minimum investment: $25,000
Term: 12β18 months
So a $50,000 investment could return $5,000 per year, paid in four $1,250 installments.
