The Godfather of Hard Money, pg. 55
“That’s where the market is going,” said Rosen, “and that’s
what I specialize in, helping investors create real estate funds.”
Rosen said he’s seeing more and more investors deploy
capital utilizing different types of retirement accounts, such
as self-directed IRAs, and start (or join) these funds to enjoy
better returns and increased security; there’s little not to like.
“At the end of the day, the borrower gets to borrow
money,” said Rosen. “The investors in the fund get a good
dividend yield, secured by a good position on prime real
estate. The hard money lender gets the origination points, the
arbitrage spread – the difference between what you pay your
investors and what you charge your borrowers – and fees for
management and servicing of the fund. In a perfect world,
everybody walks away happy.”
And Rosen will continue to spread the message: Shifting at
least some of your investments away from the equities market
and into the real estate market by becoming a hard money
lender can increase returns and, done correctly, make your
investments more secure. And it’s just the right time for it, he
said. “I’m a big advocate for the private lending sector in this
economy,” Rosen said. “I think it produces jobs, it produces
commerce, it puts people to work. It does a lot of good things.”
