Mortgage Loans Made Easy through Hard Money Lending

Mortgage Loan Approval HintsDo you need help getting a mortgage loan for your income property?  Do you need help getting a mortgage loan on property for a business startup loan?  Or, do you need help getting a mortgage loan on a piece of property that you are buying for your business or for an investment?

Have you ever considered the most efficient and easiest way in which to get your money?  Do you enjoy going through the complex and lengthy bank process to get your answers which are mostly turn downs in this market?

Hard money loans use an entirely different approach than banks are required to utilize.  The bank looks carefully at you as a borrower and makes its decision based upon your collateral, your income, your credit, your cash balances, your income tax returns, and so on.

Have I exhausted you yet?  I’ve exhausted myself as I’ve been through the process all too often and usually come out wasting time and being very angry at myself for believing that a bank is there to help me solve my need for money fast.

Hard Money Saved My Client’s Business Let it Save Yours!

Photo of a Small Business OwnerHard money loans can make the difference between success and failures in today’s economic marketplace. Without banks as lenders, the sources of capital are few and far between. There are no viable sources of business capital to fall back on and therefore, the most exciting resource about which you can learn, is hard money.

Hard money might sound risky for you, the borrower. It may even sound kind of exotic as few people understand how it actually works. It might actually sound like a back alley loan in Brooklyn where you will meet Vito if you don’t pay the loan back in a few days or a week.

In reality, however, hard money is as legitimate and respectable as is any other loan resource. In fact the loan process is the same in some respects, but very different in some important ways that make it perfect for you when you need FAST MONEY!

Obama’s State of the Union Leaves Businesses Still Needing Money

Obama's State of the Union Leaves Businesses Still Needing MoneyThe President bravely put himself in front of the American people this evening stating that the key to job growth is tax incentives. The key to job growth was to bring American jobs back home. And, the key to job growth is to raise taxes on the wealthy (this one completely escapes me, by the way).

Why oh why is it so hard to understand that the key to a strong economy is to build a dynamic small business climate that encourages innovation, invention and entrepreneurism?

Small business doesn’t care one bit about tax incentives. What small business needs is access to capital. The concept of tax incentives building a strong job market is a big business view of life; one that only politicians can view from their 10,000 foot look down at life as we know it.

Tax incentives don’t allow you to hire people. Tax incentives don’t allow you to lease a space to do business within. Tax incentives don’t assist you one bit to purchase equipment. If you don’t have the capital to pay for these and other items necessary for business development, all of the tax incentives in the world won’t help.

How the 2012 Iowa Caucus Impacts Potential Hard Money Lending

I must admit that I’m truly excited about the prospects of hard money for our country going forward after watching the returns last night in Iowa.

None of these candidates have expressed any thoughts or ideas whatsoever about how they would address the banks bad debt problems, the lack of bank loans for small business, or any way to avoid the prospective problems of higher oil prices, inflation and foreign debt problems.

I see a bright future for hard money as the only viable source of funds for business start-up and growth both in the short and longer term.

The banking system in this country will be imploding due to a swing of the pendulum towards more conservative lending policies to insure the long-term strength of the overall financial system. The unintended detriment is that it leaves new and growing businesses high and dry when it comes to funding.

Start a New Business in 2012

Did you ever think that you could follow your dreams of financial independence into the New Year? The most important factor holding you and most others back is the lack of capital. Finding the money to start a business is one of the most difficult parts of the entire process.

The business planning process, which all good business people should complete (even if only in summary form), will generate a schedule of the amount of money needed for your initial expenses, including working capital.

If you were to go to your bank in order to obtain the funds that you believe that you need, the process would take anywhere from 30 to 60 days to either be accepted or denied. During this time, a great location may be taken by someone else, a great deal on inventory or services may be gone, and what might be the worst part of the entire process, your enthusiasm may wane.

Hard Money Blog Launches

Welcome to the Hard Money Blog featuring news and trends along with my own personal ideas and advice on hard money and alternative business funding sources.

My name is Steve Replin and I’be been in the business of hard money lending for 30 years. As you can imagine, I’ve seen businesses succeed with proper funding while others burn at the stake when they run out of money. I’ve also seen where companies are awarded funding but from the wrong sources resulting in a similar negative outcome.

Half the battle in getting money for your business is knowing what options are available in the first place. Typically, business owners turn to their local bank when the need for money arises. But, you are correct to assume from what you’ve heard on the news that bank loans are very tough to come by these days.
