Welcome to iFundRE.net

With changing markets, the time to build is now! There is a reported shortage of available homes for both new and repeat buyers across much of the U.S.A. today. Builders are struggling to find good quality workers and the availability of materials seem to be fluctuating. Land values have and are increasing rapidly and raw land around major metropolitan areas are being scooped up by both large and small developers. iFundRE.net has been tuned and continues to offer specialty financing for both land purchase and construction. Some borrowers already own the land and are seeking funding for entitlement and and soft costs including plans, permits, engineering and even breaking ground for utilities, roads and pads. Each project and developer although approaching the same basic procedures, we found have unique circumstances. To overcome these challenges, we have available quite a range of financing. From the most aggressive and flexible (Private money) to more traditional financing such as bank and funds managed capital.

Let’s touch on these a bit more in detail:

Private money or hard money allows flexibility such as cross collateralization. In other words, we can lend on different properties with equity in addition to or instead of the project itself. Also it allows for more than one borrower to apply together, pooling their strengths together to reach the goal they might not attain separately. Also this funding is normally much faster to close and provide the capital ready to go. This type of financing can also enter into Joint Venture Agreements and profit share agreements when the collateral is limited and the borrower short on some areas of strength alone. The cost is more than traditional financing since it is more flexible and faster.

More traditional financing requires much more paperwork, stricter underwriting guidelines and takes more time to actually fund. They usually don’t cross collateralize other properties and have less flexibility but they offer more attractive terms such as lower interest rate and lower up front costs. They always require full appraisals that can consume weeks to months to obtain. Especially when the market is busy.

If you would like to present a specific project then it would be best if you could put together a simple 1 or 2 page overview or summary of the details. (Photos, maps or supporting data sometimes helps)

However, if you just want to discuss a deal, reach out to me and we can set a time to talk together. My email is the best way to reach me but if it’s more urgent or convenient, just call my office.

Whether you’re looking for a safe investment for retirement or you’re simply trying to find a promising opportunity with low risks and high rewards, trust deed investing is an excellent choice for astute investors.

Why First Trust Deed Investing with Us?

• Your money is secured with real estate, a liquidable asset and perhaps the most stable collateral available. You are vested on each note and deed of trust.
• Your money is secure whether the borrower pays on time or not, based on the equity in the asset and the low loan to value ratio at the time of originating the loan.
• You dictate which deals you are interested in. You only give money for specific deals that you are interested in when the deal you choose needs funding. We do not require you to invest any funds prior.
• You dictate the terms of the investment you are interested in, including types of property, location, period of time for payback, interest rate, etc.
• We offer conservative loan to values with a maximum at 75%. For example, if a property is appraised today for $500,000 then we will not lend more than $375,000. That way if you are the investor on this property you will not only look forward to collecting high interest on your money, but also in the case the borrower can’t pay back you may acquire a property worth $5000,000 for less. Otherwise you will collect all principal and interest owed you via trustee’s sale. Either way you Win!
• Your money is not mixed with other people’s money into a pool unless we fractionalize a note or investment. You have a choice of course!
• We do all the diligence and hard work for you to make it easy for you to decide if the investment works for you. We spend time researching, underwriting, and verifying every aspect of the loan file for you. You will receive from us the following at minimum to review an investment opportunity: loan application, preliminary title report, credit report, and appraisal.
• You know your (ROI) return on investment, before making your final decision to proceed. It does not change like the stock market or other investments based on factors outside of your control.
• This is a proven type of investing that has been around longer than the stock market.
