There are some investors that will buy hard money mortgages. This is only for established mortgage lenders, not individuals.
Private money is for personal gain (12-15% and 2-5 points) if you are small scale. You can also tap into your IRA to do mortgages. It’s called a self directed IRA. You just can’t combine your cash and the IRA dollars.
I have an interest in private mortgage lending and I have a question for the pros. If after closing you decide to sell your mortgage, how do you make money if it’s sold at face value? My understanding is mortgages are bought at or below face value. Thanks in advance.
