Banks and hard money lenders seem like the obvious go-to, but what happens when those sources dry up, as they once did for Jay Conner? The answer, as Jay Conner discovered, is private money—and embracing it doesn’t just solve a financing problem, it can dramatically accelerate business growth. Early Days and the Banking Roadblock Jay Conner didn’t start his career in the realm of single-family rehabs. Raised in the manufactured homes business, he was surrounded by affordable housing from a young age. But when financing for mobile homes disappeared in the early 2000s, the transition to single-family investment was a natural next step. Going full-time in 2003, Jay Conner began as many do, relying entirely on traditional banks and mortgage companies for funding his rehab deals. This process seemed rock-solid—until the financial crisis of 2008 hit. Suddenly, with deals under contract, Jay Conner found his bank had shut down his lines of credit overnight. He was left with deals he couldn’t close, earnest money at risk, and no warning. This kind of scenario is exactly what keeps new investors awake at night. Discovering the Power of Private Money Rather than give up, Jay Conner made a choice to pivot—and it changed his life. Asking the right questions, he turned to a friend and learned about a new world: private lending. Unlike banks, private money involves borrowing from individuals—those with investment capital or retirement funds, people you may already know through your own network. Rather than applying for money, Jay Conner began to teach people what private lending was and how they could earn secure, above-average returns. This education-first approach put him in a position of offering opportunity, not asking for a favor. Within less than three months, Jay Conner raised over two million dollars—enough to fund his deals and more. Why Private Money is a Real Estate Gamechanger For Jay Conner, private money isn’t just about having cash to close. It fundamentally shifts who controls the transaction. When working with banks, you’re subject to their rules, rates, timelines, and risk tolerances. With private money, you set the terms: interest rates, note lengths, and payment schedules. Your credit score becomes irrelevant, and approvals aren’t based on a rigid box of qualifications.
