The Creative Deals We're Doing Now - #291

Hard money lending is changing — and savvy private lenders are pivoting. In this episode, Jason and Chris break down the creative real estate deals they're closing in today's market, from small-balance commercial loans to construction completion loans, bridge financing, and more.

🔑 When traditional capital dries up or becomes harder to access, private lenders have the flexibility to structure unique loans with strong collateral, even for borrowers with lower credit scores — as long as the numbers make sense.

👀 Listen in as we discuss:

• Why creativity matters more in uncertain markets

• How we're structuring low-LTV bridge loans on free-and-clear rentals

• Lending to nonprofits and non-recourse deal structures

• When it does make sense to lend to a low-credit borrower

• Building capital stacks creatively for small commercial deals

• Common-sense lending strategies in a volatile market

• Why private lenders have a competitive advantage right now

Whether you're a new or seasoned private lender, you'll walk away with practical insights into underwriting smarter and finding opportunity in overlooked spaces.
