Raising Private Money with Jay Conner
I’m Jay Conner, also known as the Private Money Authority. Did you know that as a real estate investor, you are missing out on 87% of the deals because you’re “not” leveraging private money? After two decades as an investor, I started the Raising Private Money podcast to help you unlock all the private money you'll ever need to fund your real estate deals - WITHOUT resorting to expensive hard money loans.
If you’ve ever lost out on a great off market deal because you lacked the financing, then you and I are kindred spirits. I’ve been there too, missing seller financed opportunities early on because I didn’t know any better.
On this podcast, we’ll walk through accessing private funding together. You’ll discover:
•How to position yourself to tap into flexible private money funding rather than restrictive, costly hard money loans
•Untapped funding sources like self-directed IRAs – and many others you may not be aware of
•Steps to build your own network of private lenders for repeat financing
I speak with wholesalers, flippers, rehabbers, and investors in every niche about where they were BEFORE private money, and how adding private money has EXPLODED their profits!
Whether you’re a new investor looking to quit your 9 to 5 job and finance your first deal or an experienced investor aiming to do more deals and generate bigger profits, private money is out there waiting for you.
You just need the right mindset, positioning and tools.
