Private investors don’t want to gamble—they want security. That’s why the number one rule for attracting private money is simple: the deal must have equity in the buy. You should be locking in at least 35% equity from day one. This isn’t just a safety cushion—it’s proof you know how to buy smart. When a deal has built-in profit from the start, it speaks for itself.

Be the Trusted Authority

People invest in people. To raise capital consistently, focus on becoming a trusted local expert. That means sharing your insights on social media, in conversations, and at investor meetups. You don’t need to brag, just be helpful and consistent. Confidence, transparency, and humility go a long way.

Make the Right Connections

Stop cold-pitching and start building relationships. Some of your best funding partners may come from casual conversations in real estate groups, community events, or even your existing network. Show up where investors are, and lead with curiosity instead of a pitch.

Document and Share Your Journey

Even if you’ve only done one deal, that’s something to share. Post project updates, celebrate your wins, and highlight your learning moments. A simple before-and-after photo or a quick breakdown of your ROI builds social proof and positions you as someone who gets results.

You don’t need to beg for money when you’ve got solid deals, a reputation for doing good work, and the ability to communicate it well. Private capital will follow people who are prepared, professional, and playing the long game.

Start building deals that attract capital—without ever chasing it.
