Why should you attend?
Although the regulatory compliance landscape is well-defined for mortgage lenders making loans to consumers, these implications can be less straightforward when it comes to private money lenders. A private money lender is a non-institutional (non-bank) individual or company that loans money, generally secured by a note and deed of trust, for the purpose of funding a real estate transaction. Private lenders typically fall into three broad categories, which include individuals, seller finance transactions, and hard money lenders. A common misconception is that these types of loans are exempt from the federal and state laws and regulations that govern consumer lending. However, as the market for these loans continues to flourish, it is important to remember that “business purpose” does not actually mean “consumer compliance exempt.”
