With more of the public turning towards hard money lending in Florida, it's sensible to check with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) before doing business. The BBB keeps track of all sorts of businesses, like a guard of quality compliance. Before getting a hard mortgage loan always check with the BBB to make sure you're doing business with a quality mortgage lender. If you're not in the know, private money is a loan from an private lender compared to a bank. People are turning towards hard money lenders because the economy is in shambles and banks are not lending. To help keep construction on the rise, higher populated areas are turning towards hard money and private lenders with greater numbers. bank loans and hard money loans are not regulated the same, which is a blessing and a curse. With some private mortgage brokers you can get a loan without a credit or employment check, which is great if you are self employed or have poor credit. On the other hand you must be sure you're dealing with a responsible broker. I recently worked with a hard money broker named Franklin Karr and I'll use this company as an example. This is the same process I used when deciding on a Hard Money loan to purchase an investment property in Miami, FL. After viewing their website, I went to the BBB and researched the company. I saw that he has the highest rating available (A+), no complaints, and also had a good review. I knew that an A+ rating was a very good sign and urged my to take the next step to contact him. There is no better way to check your hard money broker's record then with the Better Business Bureau (BBB). The first step is to open the Better Business Bureau's national database. you'll see a list appear of possible matches. Click the one that matches the company and a new window will open. In the middle of the page is a clear letter rating, just like your favorite science teacher would give you. These grades are based on a number of factors, the most important of all is client satisfaction. To the right of the letter grade is an explanation of the grade and below that more information on the business. When choosing a hard money lender always keep the BBB in mind. A good rating equals out to many factors including proper licensing and government compliance. Keep in mind that any business with a bad rating or not listed could possibly cause you problems. Finding a business with an A+ rating.
