You're listening to TIP.

0:02.3

And honestly, once we tell you that we approve this deal, we're going to do our best to make sure it closes.

0:07.1

Whereas for the commercial side, there are many reasons why they can just cancel on you last minute.

0:11.8

And I've seen that happen.

0:15.8

On today's episode, I chat with Sean Pan to talk about what hard money is, the approval process,

0:22.8

its difference from traditional financing, its common fees, and red flags to avoid in a potential

0:28.3

lender, and much more. Sean is a real estate investor and hard money lender based in the San Francisco

0:34.3

Bay Area. He invests in single family flips flips, out-of-state rental properties,

0:39.5

and is the host of the Everything Real Estate Investing Show and one of the Bay Area's top

0:44.7

real estate meetups. We've touched on hard money loans briefly in quite a few episodes in the

0:50.8

past, but we hadn't done a true deep dive into them yet. So my goal with this

1:01.9

that you can refer back to any time you have questions or want to learn more about hard money.

Also, a quick reminder about the fee for this show. We do not run ads to promote the podcast.

1:14.3

The show only grows if you guys share it and tell your friends. So the fee for the show is exactly

1:19.8

that. For every episode you like, share it with one friend. You don't have to share it with a million

1:26.1

people. I mean, that would be awesome,

1:28.4

and I'd love it if you did. But you can pay the fee by sharing each episode you like or get

1:33.5

value from with just one person. And I'm confident that that'll be every episode. So don't forget

1:40.4

to pay the fee, guys. It really helps the show grow and allows me to bring on the best guests for you all.

1:46.4

And it allows me to keep producing content that is completely free.

1:51.1

All right.
