Great book for real estate investors

Great entry level book for aspiring private money lenders, flippers and even entrepreneurs. Gives you a peek behind the curtain of how lenders think and what drives them. Easy to read and not too dense. Highly recommend if you’re in real estate.

Life-changing book! And the people behind it are even better 🙂

Yes, the book is great. I actually reviewed portions of it as my boys were writing it. But what really sets this book apart is the people behind it. Dave and our sons actually, REALLY care. You can feel that on every page. They’re not just teaching a strategy (although private lending has absolutely changed our lives and made it so I’ll never have to work). But more that that, they’re helping people build freedom.

In a world full of grifters and sleazeballs, I’m soooo grateful I have my boys to lean on. They’ve given our family confidence, clarity, and a path forward we believe in. I’m blessed to have them.

Private Lending for those that want to increase their wealth

I’ve encountered countless financial strategies over the years—most are either overhyped or too boring to stick with. This book stands out. It’s strategic, grounded, and tailored for professionals like me who have capital but limited time. What sets it apart is the depth. It doesn’t just offer strategies for making money, it changes your mindset on wealth itself.
