What is Private Money in Hawaii?


Private money lending is a commonly used term to refer to hard money lending. Hard money as opposed to more traditional soft money comes generally from private local individuals that have a strong knowledge base in local real estate. Private money is for the most part more expensive that institutional, conventional or government backed mortgages because there is a higher risk to the lender. However, there are also many benefits to a private lender such as flexibility, speed, and experience. What may take a bank 60 days to fund a loan can take a private lender less than a week with little to no credit checks, references, bank statements and so on.
