Private Hard Money— California Trust Deed Investing and Expectations

Becoming an investor in private hard money California loans can be lucrative move, even for a newcomer. If you are a newcomer to trust deed investing, there are a few things you should know or rather expect when you make the decision to invest.

img_16-150x150Up until three years ago, many investors were not clear on how trust deeds played a role in private hard money. California, however, wanted to make sure that all potential investors understood the trust deed investing guidelines. Thus, it was not too long before the California Bureau of Real Estate decided to release new guidelines. In these new guidelines, it became apparent that in order to invest, one could not invest more than a fraction of their net worth—10% to be exact.

In addition to this new provision or rather clarification, it also became apparent that there were several advantages to this particular form of investing. For starters, trust deed investing meant more private hard money. California investors, brokers and borrowers all benefited from this fact. Another clear advantage was the fact that this particular form of investing meant a consistent income stream for investment portfolios in need. Furthermore, trust deeds are, in essence, separate from the stock market. The separation between the stock market and trust deeds means that there is less risk associated with this form of real estate investment.

Other important advantages were clear from day one such as the predictable principal and interest payments that you as an investor would receive. It is also very hard to discuss the advantages and expectations of trust deed investing without highlight the fact that your investment is secured via tangible collateral (the real estate or property). This not only means that you have a viable cause of action if the borrower does not live up to their end of the agreement; it also means that your investment has clear equity.

A Win-win Solution

With that being said, let’s not forget why you are really here—you came here to make a sizeable return. Well, the good news is when you choose to become a trust deed investor you more than likely will see a sizeable return. In fact, many trust deed investors have been known to earn double-digit returns all through investing. So, what does all this mean for you? It means that there is an opportunity to earn more while risking less and that is a win-win in really anyone’s book. Lastly, there are dozens of ways to invest wisely when it comes to trust deed investing. For instance, you should always determine a safe amount to lend and you should always make it a point to establish the property value. These are just two ways that you can risk less. Remember, all you have to do is just ask around and pretty much anyone will have a tip or two, especially when it comes to first trust deed investments.
