Most people have been told the same thing their entire life, put your money in a 401k, invest in the stock market, follow the 4% rule, and hope you don't outlive your money. In this episode of The M.O.R.E. Show, Justin Colby sits down with Zach Richards, co-founder of REI Capital and private lender to real estate investors, to break down why savvy investors are moving money out of volatile markets and into real estate-backed private lending, how hard money lenders are failing borrowers at the worst possible moment, and exactly what real estate investors need to qualify for and successfully use private money on their deals.
