Investment Criteria
Investors can consider several criteria to evaluate potential private lending opportunities, including creditworthiness, property type, and loan-to-value ratio (LTV).
- Creditworthiness is a critical factor in private lending. This includes assessing their credit history, debt-to-income ratio, and overall financial stability.
- Property type is another important consideration in private lending. Properties with a clear and marketable title and a strong potential for appreciation are preferable.
- The loan-to-value ratio (LTV) is a measure of the amount of the loan compared to the value of the property. LTV is calculated by dividing the loan amount by the appraised value of the property. A lower LTV signifies a lesser degree of risk associated with the investment.

Private lending can provide several benefits to lenders. Here are some of the key benefits:
- Higher Returns: Private lending can provide higher returns than traditional investments, such as stocks or bonds.
- Diversification: Private lending can be a way to diversify an investment portfolio. By adding private loans to a portfolio, investors can spread their risk across multiple asset classes and potentially increase their returns.
- Collateralized Investments: Private lending often involves collateralized loans, meaning the loan is secured by a valuable asset, such as real estate. This can provide greater security for the lender in case of default.
Private lending, like any other investment, comes with risks. Here are some of the key risks associated with private lending:
- Default Risk: The borrower may fail to repay the loan, which can result in a loss of principal for the lender.
- Collateral Risk: If the loan is secured by collateral, such as real estate, there is a risk that the collateral will decline in value or become difficult to sell.
- Interest Rate Risk: If interest rates rise, the value of existing loans may decrease, as borrowers may seek out cheaper financing options. This can result in lower returns for the lender.

Peer-to-peer (P2P) lending is a type of private lending that involves individual investors providing loans to borrowers through an online platform. It is crucial to understand the associated risks and carefully evaluate potential investments before engaging in this lending practice. We recommend working with a professional team like ours if you are interested in doing this kind of lending.
Investing in private real estate can involve various strategies, such as direct ownership of properties, real estate investment trusts (REITs), or private real estate funds. If you have specific concerns about this type of private money lending or real estate-secured lending, we’re happy to answer your questions.
Peer-to-peer (P2P) lending can be a good investment for some investors, but it also carries risks that should be carefully evaluated. For example, P2P loans often provide higher returns than traditional fixed-income investments. However, P2P loans are not insured, and borrowers may default on their loans, which can result in the loss of principal. To learn more about the pros and cons, reach out to our team!
