How Getting Run Over by a Boat Led to Investing in Hard Money Loans with Jean Klinkhamer Kingdom REI : The Real Estate Investing Podcast for Kingdom Leaders

Jean has worked with real estate investment properties in Arizona since 2002 and has been involved in hundreds of transactions, and has financed over $50 million in private money loans.

As an investor, Jean has fixed and flipped many homes himself and owned and managed rental properties. He brings that perspective to the table as a lender and knows from experience what investors want and need in terms of smooth access to capital for their transactions.

On this episode of the Kingdom REI podcast, Jean shares his journey with me and my co-host, Nick Stromwall, and talked about how he started from from ministry work to real estate investing, explaining that he initially started with fix and flips and lease options before transitioning into hard money lending.

He further explained the benefits of hard money lending, highlighting the ability to secure loans with real estate and the potential for consistent monthly income. Jean also emphasized the importance of thoroughly vetting borrowers and properties to mitigate risks which includes running credit and criminal background checks on borrowers, checking property values and loan-to-value ratios, and verifying the borrower's experience and connections.
