My best clients don't just borrow money. They build relationships.

And there's a real difference.

A borrower calls when they need something. A relationship calls when they find a deal — because they already know we can move.

A borrower negotiates every fee. A relationship trusts that we'll structure it fairly — because we always have.

A borrower disappears after closing. A relationship sends me their next three deals and two referrals.

In 35 years, the investors I've enjoyed working with most weren't the ones with the biggest loans. They were the ones who treated this like a partnership — because that's what it is.

When you win, I win. That's how private money is supposed to work.

If you're looking for a lender who thinks that way, I'd love to meet you.

The investor who waits for perfect conditions never invests.

I've watched people sit on the sidelines for years. Waiting for rates to drop. Waiting for the market to cool. Waiting for "the right time."

Meanwhile, the investors who were willing to move — even with imperfect information — built portfolios, created cash flow, and changed their financial futures.

35 years in real estate has taught me one non-negotiable truth: deals don't wait. Markets don't pause. Sellers don't hold.

The investors who win are the ones who move decisively — and have a lender ready to move with them.

If you're ready to stop waiting and start building, I'm ready to fund it.

A question I get all the time: "What's the difference between hard money and private money?"

Here's the honest answer:

🏦 Hard Money lenders are typically institution-based. They have set rates, set fees, and set guidelines. They're faster than banks — but they're still running you through a process.

🤝 Private Money is relationship-based. You're dealing directly with the person making the decision. Terms are flexible, turnaround is faster, and the conversation is different because it's personal.

At Chaja Lending Services, we're private money. That means when you call, you get me — Jackson — not a loan processor, not a call center, not someone reading from a checklist.

If that's the kind of lender you've been looking for, let's talk.

Just funded. ✅

4-unit multifamily. BRRRR strategy. $210,000.

Here's why this deal mattered:

The investor found a distressed 4-unit that nobody wanted to touch. The numbers worked — but only if he could move fast and structure the financing right.

We funded the acquisition and rehab in one loan. Closed in 11 days.

Once the rehab is complete, he refinances, pulls his capital back out, and keeps the asset producing cash flow. That's the BRRRR strategy working exactly the way it's supposed to.

Private money didn't just fund this deal — it made the whole strategy possible.

If you're running BRRRR, fix & flip, or any value-add strategy and need a lender who understands how the numbers work — call me.

By 2020 we had grown Chaja Lending Services to 50 loan officers.

I'll be honest — I got comfortable. I stopped pushing. And just like that, momentum slipped.

Out of sight, out of mind. That lesson cost me more than I care to admit.

But here's what those years — all 35 of them — taught me about real estate investors:
They don't need another lender who throws rates at them and disappears.

They need someone who has sat where they're sitting. Who has made the calls, taken the risks, and built something from nothing.

That's who I am. That's why I lend the way I do.

05/27/2026

Before you sign anything with a private lender, ask these 5 questions:

1️⃣ How fast can you actually close?
Don't take "quickly" as an answer. Get a specific number of days.

2️⃣ Do you lend on the deal or just the borrower?
A great lender evaluates the asset. A lazy one just pulls credit.

3️⃣ Are you the decision maker or a middleman?
Middlemen slow things down and add costs. Know who you're really talking to.

4️⃣ What are ALL the fees — upfront?
Points, processing, draw fees — get the full picture before you commit.

5️⃣ Have you ever invested in real estate yourself?
I have. Since 1991. That changes the entire conversation.
Save this post. Share it with a fellow investor. And when you're ready to work with a lender who can answer all five — you know where to find me.

Another one closed. ✅

Here's how last week's deal came together:

An investor had a single-family fix & flip under contract. Solid ARV, clear exit strategy, motivated seller. The bank had already passed. He needed to close fast or lose the deal entirely.

We funded $187,500 — covering the purchase and a portion of the rehab — and closed in 9 days.

No income verification. No 45-day wait. No runaround.

Just a real conversation, a deal that made sense, and a lender who showed up.

That's what Chaja Lending Services does. Every deal, every time.

If you have a deal on the table right now — don't wait. Call or DM me directly and let's see if we can make it happen.

The bank said no. We said yes. And we closed in 7 days.

Here's what happened:

An investor came to me with a $250,000 deal — solid property, great numbers, motivated seller. The only problem? The bank needed 45 days minimum to even give him an answer. The seller wasn't waiting 45 days.

He found us. We looked at the deal, not the red tape. Within 24 hours we had a term sheet. Within 7 days we were at the closing table.

That investor walked away with a deal that penciled out beautifully — and a bank would have cost him the whole thing.

This is why private money exists. Not because banks are bad — but because deals don't wait, and opportunities have expiration dates.

If you have a deal that needs to move fast, call me directly.

Thousands of multifamily loans are maturing in 2026 — and many owners are discovering they can’t refinance under today’s higher rates and tighter lending standards. Rising costs, lower valuations, and stricter DSCR requirements are pushing more owners to consider selling before their loan comes due.

Read the full CPI blog to see what’s driving this trend and how Chaja Properties, Inc. helps owners navigate these challenges with fast, fair solutions.

5 things real estate investors get wrong about private money loans:

❌ "It's only for people who can't get bank loans."
Speed is the real reason serious investors use private money. Banks take 45+ days. We close in 7–14.

❌ "The rates are too high."
Tell that to the investor who made $60K on a flip a bank took 90 days to deny.

❌ "You need perfect credit."
We lend on the DEAL — the asset, the numbers, the opportunity.

❌ "Private lenders are hard to find."
I'm right here. Have been for 35 years.

❌ "It takes too long to close."
We close in 7–14 days. Most banks can't even return your call that fast.
