We all know banks are not lending money.

We also know that the few opportunities that may exist from borrowing are made much more difficult by the banks requiring better credit than ever, and many of you have suffered credit hits because of the current downturn, reduced revenues and increased overhead expenses. Thus, it is even harder to get a loan.

This is a problem.

Aside from normal operating requirements requiring lines of credit, and the desire to make acquisitions of many sorts, there is also a great need for capital to fund workouts. Workouts reduce debt paying small amounts in consideration of large reductions of debt. But you must be able to support the cash requirement or it cannot be done.

Frequently this becomes a critical issue as a workout may mean you remain financially alive so the capital required to fund a workout is critical to your emergence and survival.

So what does one do when loans are generally unavailable and with an upside down situation even with good credit banks are reluctant to lend to you.

The answer, hard money. Non bank lending, private lending, high points, high interest, low loan to value ratio but flexible terms.

Currently we are arranging a hard money loan with 10 points and 14 – 16% interest…Wow! Who would believe this? Not all hard money lenders are this steep but this situation is.

Why would someone do this? Simple, the nest savings will be many hundreds of thousands of dollars, about a million, and the actual cost of the loan for the first year is about $50,000. Steep? Yes. But compared to saving his business and reducing his debt by a million, the $50,000 is a bargain. It facilitated huge gain and survival, all for a mere $50,000.

This here is a place for hard money even at its hardest. Especially when supporting a workout…
