John Ford is the founder and CEO of Bel Air Lending and a seasoned real estate entrepreneur who has facilitated over 550 loans totaling more than $120 million since 2018, and who has rehabilitated 50+ homes and built 60+ residences. In "Bel Air Lending — How I Did: Raising $44 Million in 8 Years," he outlines a repeatable fundraising system centered on a concise "Credibility Kit" of track record documents and investor materials. He will walk through step-by-step outreach tactics and practical checklists, including how to build a prospect list, contact top targets, mail the packet, solicit feedback, and use referrals, plus sample materials and scripts. John also explains how Bel Air protects investor capital through an attorney-managed trust and layered net worth between borrowers and lenders, and supports his approach with the company’s performance record of over $126 million in loans originated, a reported minimum 10% annualized return for eight consecutive years, and no principal or interest losses passed to investors.00:02:45 – Why Investors Choose Private Lending in SDIRAsConnect lending strategy to retirement investing goalsCHAPTER MARKERS00:04:00 – What This Session Will Cover About Private Lending00:05:00 – How the Lending Business Model Works00:08:00 – The Two Keys: Experience and Capital00:09:45 – Building Credibility With a “Brag Book”00:11:59 – Improving Marketing and Investor Communication00:14:00 – Creating the Entity and Becoming a Lender00:15:28 – How Funds Move Through a Trust Attorney00:23:07 – Track Record and Protecting Investor Principal📈💰 Begin your Self Directed Retirement Journey today at AmericanIRA!https://go.americanira.com/self-directed-ira-fees-yt/🎧💬🚀 Subscribe to our IRA Cafe Podcast:https://bit.ly/4mvb5Y3
