Can you make money by investing in hard money loans?

Consider using a deed of trust investment. A deed of trust investment allows you to earn steady returns and interest payments on the loans distributed by hard money lenders.

Deeds of trust may be an unfamiliar concept for many first-time real estate investors. A deed of trust is a promissory note in which a borrower promises to pay back the lender (i.e., you the investor). Your investment goes to the borrower in the form of a loan, and the borrower's property acts as collateral in case of default. You earn both the interest payments and any portion of the principle the borrower manages to pay off throughout the term of the loan. Because a real property secures them, deeds trust are relatively safe and can offer steady returns to novice real estate investors.

Investing in a deed of trust is also a great way to diversify your portfolio. A deed of trust investment allows you to act as a passive owner and earn income from a property without owning it outright. You also save money because you will not need to purchase the entire property upfront and you avoid the hassle of maintaining the property yourself. Deeds of trust can also offer higher returns over an ordinary saving or an investment account.

Use a hard money lender to get the help you need when it comes to investing in deeds of trust

Trust deed investment companies (TDIC's) connect investors with deeds of trust and usually known as "hard money" lenders. The loans issued by these groups are secured by the value of the "hard" asset which the borrower wants to finance. Often TDIC's use deed of trust investments as a way to raise capital for the loans they issue to prospective borrowers.

Some may consider merely acting as private lenders on their own behalf. If you have the money and you want to earn interest, you could always lend the money yourself.

Working with a TDIC allows you to benefit from their knowledge and experience when it comes to the real estate market and the rules and regulations related to lending. The lender can underwrite the loan, take care of legal obstacles, perform the necessary due diligence and in some cases service the mortgage directly.
