Creative Finance & Private Money in Central Oregon
Most people assume real estate takes a big down payment and a conventional loan. The investors in our Bend meetups buy and hold a different way. They put lines of credit to work, structure lease options, borrow against their own capital, and use private money to move when a deal is right. These are the financing strategies Suzanne and Sarah teach at the monthly Central Oregon Investor Network meetup and inside the PRIMO Private Money Academy. The guides below break each one down in plain language, with the real numbers and the kind of investor each one actually fits.
