At The Lyon Fund, becoming a private lender involves a thorough yet streamlined 10-step process designed to ensure safe and profitable investments. It begins with a real estate investor submitting a loan request, followed by your review and confirmation of interest. The borrower is then vetted through credit checks and experience verification. Once approved, you fund the deal through escrow, and an appraisal along with documentation is completed. Final approval is granted, and you receive a commitment letter before the loan officially closes. Post-closing, rehab funds are managed and disbursed as work progresses, ensuring your capital is used effectively and responsibly.
