“I thought I needed them more than they needed me and what turned out that I learned very very quickly is the opposite is true. They actually need us, the real estate investor, to borrow that money more than we need them.”  Private lending isn't a mystery—it's a strategy. When traditional banks slam their doors shut, savvy entrepreneurs don't whine… they pivot. By learning how to attract and manage private capital, you shift from being at the mercy of gatekeepers to becoming your own underwriter. This episode breaks down exactly how everyday investors can raise private money ethically, safely, and with integrity—without begging or pitching a single deal.  Jay Conner shares how he raised over $2 million in just 90 days from people who had never even heard of private money before. “You don't need a credit score. You don't need a bank's approval. You need a teacher's mindset and a rock-solid program.” Conner breaks down his referral method, his “good news” script, and why trust, not desperation, fuels every successful transaction.  Jay Conner is known as The Private Money Authority. He's a national speaker, author of Where to Get the Money Now, and host of the Raising Private Money podcast. After being cut off by banks in 2009, he discovered private lending and has since done over 500 deals using over $8.5 million in private capital.  Expert action steps:  Join a mastermind group – Surround yourself with like-minded people.  Read great books – Your destiny is shaped by the people you meet and the books you read.  Take care of your health – Sleep, hydration, and sunlight matter. He recommends starting the day with 16 oz of water with Himalayan salt and getting outside within 5 minutes to regulate circadian rhythm.  Lean more & connect:  Where to Get the Money Now: How and Where to Get Money for your Real Estate Deals Without Relying on Traditional or Hard Money Lenders by Jay Conner  https://www.jayconner.com/book  7 Reasons Why Private Money Will Skyrocket Your Real Estate Business and Help You Build Incredible Wealth (Free ebook)  https://www.jayconner.com/moneyguide  Podcast:  Raising Private Money Podcast with Jay Conner  Available on all major podcast platforms  https://www.jayconner.com/podcast  Visit https://www.eCircleAcademy.com and book a success call with Nicky to take your practice to the next level.
