#3 – Mastering Private Lending

1 DVD – 4 hours. Intermediate-to-Advanced level



Want to make 10%-18% return by lending your money for real estate deals? You can! You can also lose your entire investment, and some investors did. Which is the reason we teach this class. Learn how to protect your money!

It is very easy to give someone a loan. It is not as easy to ensure that you will get paid in the end. Likewise, if you are a borrower, protecting your business interest requires knowledge and effort.

Real estate attorney Steven Newsom will:

  1. discuss some of the more important legal issues to consider with private money loans, whether you are a borrower or a private lender
  2. walk through the most common and important loan documents and identify various options for structuring the loans
  3. identify some of the risks and explain how to mitigate them.


Then comes the IRS. Both lenders and borrowers need to understand the confusing tax rules that govern private lending. Otherwise, your lucrative lending deal can turn into a costly disaster.

Here is a partial list of the topics you will learn by watching this seminar:

  • is private lending interest deductible?
  • are lender’s fees deductible?
  • two ways private lenders can treat their business for taxes
  • minimizing tax impact of private lending
  • private lending with partners and entities
  • private lending within self-directed IRAs
  • what reporting is required by the IRS
  • how to avoid IRS audit flags with private money



Protect your business! This four hour seminar will show you how to properly structure your private lending deals, save money and avoid IRS problems. We have a combined 40 years of real estate and business experience, which can save you from a lot of trouble and lost money.
