1st Point Lending Inc. provides the highest risk adjusted return to our investors. We offer a safe investment secured by real estate collateral. Investing in our fund is a smart choice that can generate significant returns for your portfolio.

  • How safe is it to invest with you?

    It's important to take note that all investments are inherently risky. Nevertheless, unlike other investment options, trust deed investing is a unique program that allows the private lender to own a real estate via a first trust deed, which in turn ensures safe investment secured by real estate. As an investor in the fund, you will personally own a fraction of every deal the fund invests in. All the deals will be secured by at least 40% equity stake in a particular property.

  • How often do you make distributions?

    Dividends are distributed monthly.

  • Do you offer distribution reinvestment?

    Yes.

  • Traditionally, the broker is the third party that handles transactions between buyers and sellers. There are also many types of brokers, which range from investment brokers to real estate brokers. In terms of a private mortgage fund or private money loans, the broker is the one who takes investor money and uses it to make a loan that's a safe investment secured by real estate. An ever-growing list of borrowers, investors, realtors, and brokers has discovered how easy it is to do business with Alex Nelson and his team 1st Point Lending, Inc.

    If you're a broker who brings a borrower to 1st Point Lending Inc., how do you get paid? 

    In order to get paid by referring a borrower, you need to first be licensed as a California Real Estate Broker. Furthermore, we will pay you as a referring broker, depending on the policies stated in our Broker Agreement.

  • Why should you work with 1st Point Lending Inc.? 

    We aren't like institutional lenders. An ever-growing list of borrowers, investors, realtors, and brokers has discovered how easy it is to do business with a seasoned veteran like 1st Point Lending Inc.

  • Do we cooperate with brokers? 

    In order for a private mortgage fund to work, there are times when we'll have to deal with mortgage brokers (who handle all mortgage loans), investment brokers (who handle the best interest of the investors who fund the loans that 1st Point Lending Inc. offers), and real estate brokers (who handle the buying and selling of a piece of real estate on behalf of a buyer or seller).

A realtor—also known as a real estate agent or a real estate broker—is the intermediary between buyers and sellers of real property or real estate. Realtors trust us because we are much faster to act than the typical bank. 1st Point Lending Inc. will consider the following properties for funding as well as eligible security for a loan: apartments, special purpose property, non-owner occupied houses (single-family residential), school property, industrial property, commercial property (retail/office), and church property.

  • What are the advantages of using a hard money loan in funding a real estate purchase?

    Aside from the aforementioned fact that we can act quicker than the average bank to close a loan, we are also collateral-based lenders who focus mostly on our lien's equity position, so we scrutinize borrowers less heavily. Even if a borrower has bad credit or cannot document income, we'll still consider these loans because you're only lending a small part of a real estate's value.

  • What type of properties will we consider?

    As mentioned elsewhere in the site, 1st Point Lending Inc. will consider the following properties for funding as well as eligible security for a loan: apartments, special purpose property, non-owner occupied houses (single-family residential), school property, industrial property, commercial property (retail/office), and church property. We will consider land loans for infill locations and coastal locations (under a lower loan-to-value structure).

  • What's the typical property 1st Point Lending Inc. loans on?

    On average, we lend on Californian non-owner occupied homes that are vacant. We mainly
    concentrate on single family homes.
