What should you know about Private Lending?

You Choose the Terms

Although your account is technically the “lender,” as the account holder, you have the power to qualify buyers and make final decisions on loan terms and interest rates.

Secured or Unsecured

As the account holder, you can negotiate with the borrower to determine whether the loan will have security or not. Typically, security instruments will include a deed of trust, a vehicle title, etc.
