Individuals Become Private Banks In US - Business News You Can Use

Someone once said if someone offers me a guaranteed return then it guarantees they will make more. And if both parties are satisfied then it's not a bad arrangement. Individuals need to be savvy with their money.

When I first began to investigate this thing called private lending I was concerned that it was a scam. Yet the more I looked at it I realized that anyone who has ever opened a savings account at a bank, invested in a CD, or has an IRA is a private lender. In each of those instances there is someone or some institution that will pay us an interest rate so they can use our money to make more for themselves. As I said before, that's not a bad arrangement but it did beg the question, could an individual safely make more for themselves.

Banks have existed for centuries for a good reason - they are profitable. Individuals can do this and participate in some of the same benefits through something called "private lending."

What is a Private Lender? Private lenders are individuals with money to lend for investment purposes. They may or may not be wealthy, but they do have excess cash or assets available over and above what they need to live on. These individuals are willing to lend for a higher return than they can get with bank CD's or money markets. They usually lend against assets but will, at times, lend unsecured.

Private money lending became very popular as interest rates on traditional Money Markets and CD's dropped below 5%.

People with extra cash started looking for higher interest rates. So if they could get the high interest rate and enough security (collateral) they were willing to do loans without personal credit or the need to be worried about credit scores. That started the revolution that you see today where private money lenders are as big and popular as other types of lenders were 10 years ago. This trend toward private money will remain as long as the rate of return is greater than bank interest rates.

Though a private lender can be found in the art world, the auto industry, the antique's arena it is most often found in the real estate market. I will confine my investigation to the real estate industry.

One warning that I must immediately give is you should never give your money directly to the real estate investor. Instead send it to a 3rd party like the closing attorney or title company. If someone asks you to give him or her your check directly then do not even consider doing business with him or her. When the funds are distributed at the closing table to the investor it assures you that all the proper documents were signed and recorded for your protection.

There are 5 items that must be required by every private lender.

1) You must have a promissory note, which will state the amount borrowed and the terms for repayment.

2) You must have lenders title insurance, which will protect the lender in case something happened within the title somewhere along the line.

3) You must have a mortgage or deed of trust, depending on your state, recorded in your name in the county of the real estate.

4) You must get an After Repair Value Opinion; this can come through an appraiser or a real estate agent, they both access the same information. You need this because the total loans on the property should not exceed 80% and preferably 70-75%. This protects you regardless of the number of mortgages on the property

5) And lastly, you must be listed as a beneficiary on the Hazard/Fire/Property Insurance, which will protect you completely if the home is destroyed or damaged.

One of the benefits of Private Lending is that your funds will be earning the stated interest from day one, the day the investor closes on the purchase. The downside is that once the property is sold the real estate investor should return your money. When that happens you will no longer be earning the high rate of return. Yet, in most cases, the real estate investor will borrow your money again shortly.

Statically, the annual average rate of return for real estate private lending is higher than other investments. If you were to earn 10% on your money for 4 months or 3% on your money for 12 months, the 10% earns more.

Another area where private lenders can become their own bank is in the area of bridge loans. A bridge loan is a bit riskier but is a common entity. Bridge loans are borrowed funds to get the time required to sort out the issues of a specific transaction and meet rigorous timetables or when the sale of one property overlaps with the purchase of another. When bridge loans approach their maturity deadline, they are paid off either through refinancing or the sale of the other home. Some bridge loans are hours long but most are for months.

Private lending offers a good rate of return yet you should not put your last penny into it. Diversification is critical to any investment strategy. When adding to your wealth you need to have different items in your portfolio.

For many individuals private lending is more comfortable because it is much less affected by repeated marketplace fluctuations. In reality, throughout times of economic turbulence in the stock market, private lending transactions are looked upon in a favorable light. It is a stable investment that can return monthly income or lump sum income like a zero coupon bond.

Nonetheless, the possibility of foreclosure is real. A private lender is more protected than a bank in a foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure situation. A private lender will have more of an equity cushion than most banks. A private lender should have at least 20-25% equity in the property, or they shouldn't become a lender. Maintaining that cushion allows a private lender to become involved at any level of mortgage, whether it is a 1st mortgage or a 5th mortgage.

There is a long a history of private money lenders investing their own money in real estate investments. Like many things, private money comes and goes depending largely on interest rates and the demand from real estate investors and other investors.

Many homeowners are able to become private lenders through the help of their own bank. They arrange an Equity Line (HELOC) with their bank on their home. Then borrow the cash at a rate of 3-4%. When you lend those funds you will be very much like your own bank (you are paying the bank interest to use their money to lend to someone else, sound familiar).

As a private lender you will be earning 8-10% or more from the real estate investor. Your net return, or "spread" as the banks call it, is 5 to 6 percent; that is your profit. At a 5% spread, on a $150,000 loan, you will earn $20.54 per day or $7500 for the year. The other benefit is that when the investor pays back the loan, the equity line stops charging interest as well.

Working From Home - Why Running Your Own Business Can Be Great News for Parents

Setting up a business that you can run from home can bring many advantages. Many parents embrace self-employment after the arrival of their children - the coining of new phrases such as 'mumpreneur' are testament to the growing interest in parent-run businesses. Having said that, self-employment can be hard work and may not always bring in a steady income. So why take the chance? Read on for some of the reasons why running your own home business can be great news for parents.

Cost of childcare

This can be the deciding factor in parents giving up work for employers and deciding to work from home for themselves. If you run your own home business, you'll have a degree of freedom that you just won't get with employment and may be able to adjust your working hours to work around your family commitments, meaning you might not have to pay for childcare.

No commuting

Every day, millions of people leave their homes, head out to their workplaces and travel for miles and for hours, in some cases to sit at a desk and do work which could just as easily be done from home. Then at the end of the day, they turn around and do it all again in reverse. And for this constant, day-in-day-out source of frustration, misery, discomfort and danger (more cars on roads mean more accidents), they pay through the nose for petrol, train tickets and bus passes.

Obviously, not every parent-friendly business involves working from home but if you do manage it, cutting out your commute time can give you back several hours a day. Not to mention saving you money on tickets and petrol. What's not to love about that?

Increasing your income

Running your own business can give you the opportunity to earn much, much more than you would by taking a job. But having said that, it's not going to happen overnight.

Creating your own job stability

This might sound a bit strange as self-employment is notorious for being somewhat fickle in providing a steady income. It might be 'feast or famine' when you're running your own business, but who's to say that being an employee is going to be any more stable in the long term? You just have to look at the unemployment statistics to realise that having a permanent job is no guarantee of an income for life.

If you run your own business, you'll develop a lot of new skills all of which can be leveraged to help you create the kind of life you want. You should also develop a more tenacious mind-set that is bound to stand you in good stead as you progress through life. You'll learn how to diversify your assets and (hopefully) create multiple income streams that don't involve swapping time for money, so you'll be able to spread the risk of something going wrong with one of your sources of income.

Staying Updated With the Latest Green Energy News Is Critical for Businesses

As petrol and other biodegradable fuels continue to get depleted, it is high time to look for alternative resources. Countries have woken up to the danger and begun to look for ways to harness richer and more viable resources such as water, sunlight, or wind. Sustainability has become a specialized field as top minds put their heads together to work on strategies to introduce more green processes in businesses. If you are a sustainability energy expert, or involved in the green technology aspects of your company, or if you are looking for ways to bring sustainable practices into your business, you need to be abreast of the latest energy news.

Green business practices not only help your company stay at the cutting edge of your field, they also add to the productivity levels by cutting down on wasteful expenditures. According to latest reports, companies are losing millions every year because of inefficient practices. Global businesses are fronting the movement for change, and thinking of innovative conservation practices. Energy news and information can keep you abreast of these developments.

Corporate houses are tacking wasteful expenditure and excessive energy consumption on a war footing and strategizing how to cut down on energy losses. Telecommuting, electronic data management, green chemistry processes in the pharmaceutical sector-these are all strategies being used to move towards green business processes.

To be with the times, you also need to be know what governments and groups are doing to explore non-traditional resources such as geothermal, solar, hydel power, and wind. With oil and gas reserves steadily getting depleted, recyclable sources such as geothermal energy are predicted to be the energy sources of the future. Similarly there is hydel electricity, a natural source of energy generated by tapping rivers. Many countries have dams to generate hydel power, and they are using this power for various purposes. There is also solar energy, with the power to generate huge quantities of heat with the aid of solar batteries and panels.

The best part about recyclable energy resources is that they do not generate harmful byproducts. Also, unlike biodegradable sources, they are not likely to run out anytime. With government debates on managing and using energy resources taking on new dimensions every day, access to the latest information is critical to stay with the times.

Reading latest articles and real-time energy news can give you fresh ideas for green practices that set your business ahead of the competition.

How to Break Into the News Photography Business

We now live in a world where people choose to get their news from their iPhones, Blackberrys and online, the newspapers taking big financial losses. Newspaper subscriptions and advertising revenues are way down and some newspaper are even closing up shop altogether. For those newspaper that are still operational upper level management are cutting back staff at a remarkable rate. Many professional photojournalists, editors and reporters are being laid off or forced to do twice the amount of work they were originally hired to do. However the demand for quality news photos and videos remains high. With reduced amount of staff photographers newspapers must still provide photos for their newspaper daily, but it isn't always that easy.

As newspapers continue to struggle to provide the best news coverage with their reduced staff they often turn to freelance photographers also known as Stringers to fill the pages with breaking news photos as well as video clips for their website. These newspaper Stringers earn anywhere from $75-200 per photo and sometimes even more for video content that is used on a national television show.

Breaking into the news photo business isn't as hard as it may sound and you can actually get started today if you have the proper equipment and motivation.

What are some of the things you will need to get started?

    Digital SLR camera
    Police Scanner
    Cellphone
    Laptop with wireless access
    Reliable vehicle
    Long zoom lens 70-200mm is fine

As a Stringer you will be spending a majority of your time monitoring your police scanner and listening for major car crashes, fires, shootings, SWAT stand offs and even severe weather such as brush fires and tornadoes happening in your town.

The objective is to get to the scene and make dramatic photos of the scene before newspaper or television photographers get there. The best time to hunt for news is late at night from 12am-4am as this is when most of the news staff is off, meaning no competition for you. It is possible to get exclusive content during the day but is usually more difficult because of the increased competition and traffic.

A reliable stringer with proven results can also accept photo assignments from newspapers, magazines and TV stations around the world adding to the money you make nightly chasing spot news.

Good News For the Home Based Business Opportunity Seeker

For many people, the idea of getting wealthy from a work at home business is just a dream. For the serious home based business opportunity seeker, there's good news. These dreamers are wrong. It's easier than they ever imagined.

Breaking into Internet Home Business-Easier than IRL

There are several reasons why it's easier to get started with an Internet home business than getting things going "in real life." You may or may not remember when you got your first job. Specifically, the job hunt may be vague in your memory.

Chances are, you were turned down several times before you landed that job. Even more poignantly, you may have recently been in the job market, and have been frustrated with how hard it is to land a job. Opening a business on the Internet skips completely over the job interview process.

If you've tried starting a brick and mortar business, then you know all too well how hard it is to get it off the ground. The saying goes that during your first five years, you can expect to operate in the red. "In the real world," this is more often than not the case. On the Internet, you don't have to wait nearly that long to get in the black.

Starting an Online Home Based Business is Cheap

Nearly anyone can get started with an online home based business. Unlike brick and mortar jobs, it doesn't take a huge investment to get started. You don't have to rent an office space; you don't have to buy initial inventory and supplies.

You can find free web hosting at sites like WordPress. You can order your products after your clients buy them. For that matter, you can sell electronic products, that don't really take any money to inventory. If you have a computer and an Internet connection, you can get started. If you're really strapped for cash in the beginning, you can work at local Wi-Fi hotspots like Starbucks.

You Don't Need a Budget for Marketing Campaigns

Another place Internet business blows "real world" business out of the water is in expenses for marketing campaigns. While brick and mortar businesses are shelling out thousands of dollars to get an ad in the phone book or a billboard, you can spend next to nothing on marketing on the Internet, and have fun while doing it.

Social media sites are fertile ground to implement Internet marketing strategies. You could buy advertising space on these sites, but if you know how to work the social media sites, you don't need to. Groups betting that they can get a million members are all over Facebook right now, and most of them reach their goals. Now imagine if you could harness this potential into a marketing campaign.

Overall, the Internet is the best place to start a business if you're dedicated to the idea of reaching success. It costs much less than "real world" business, and you start making money much sooner than you could ever dream of on Main St. Forget Main St. and get on the Information Superhighway!

How To Strategically Use The News To Identify & Create New Business Opportunities

Fortunately I have been a very avid reader and follower of "the news" during my entire professional career. I pay special attention to the business sections of various media and look for trends, and opportunities within the articles that are printed there. I have made a commitment to stay abreast of business news and can tell you that this has been a key strategy for my marketing efforts over the years.

You may say to me, "So What?" Well I can tell you that business opportunities for consultants and others are out there if you know how to identify them. I also know that most consultants do not use the news because they never used some strategic thinking to connect the events in the news to potential business. I am saying to you that once you know what to look for in the news, the opportunities will become apparent. And then those opportunities must be acted upon.

What is it that I look for when I am reading the newspaper, business journal or trade publication and when I visit a website? The basic answer is that I am looking for any event that might create opportunities. Some of these events may be happening within the company (new strategic alliance, expansion to other geographic region, rapid company growth, high employee turnover) or outside the company (new regulations, acts of God, mergers, acquisitions, plant closings).

Here are some examples of opportunities that could be created from events reported in the news.

+ A merger or acquisition may create sales training opportunities for new product lines; marketing opportunities for re-branding of products, PR support, new marketing campaigns; HR opportunities for team building, compensation issues, employee benefits; IT opportunities for planning, system integration, new technology acquisition; and leadership opportunities for strategic planning, team building at executive level.

+ Poor financial performance creates opportunities, especially if there are 2 consecutive quarters with poor results.

+ Layoffs at companies may require outside HR assistance.

+ Struggling companies may be opportunities for new leadership.

+ Rapidly growing companies may need help with additional staff.

+ Companies that are stagnant need assistance also to deliver results to grow.

+ Companies that bring in new executives often need outside help to accomplish their goals.

The key is to capitalize on the news. Watch for and identify the changes that will create business opportunities for you. And after you identify that "trigger event" you must commit to follow through by developing an offering that meets your prospect's emerging business need. And always talk to your prospects about business results and outcomes. Be sure to share your understanding of their critical business issues and the results you can deliver as specifically as you can. Develop and implement a strategic action plan to capitalize on the identified business opportunity.

Global Newswire

A newswire, sometimes also referred to as a news agency or a wire service specializes in offering news reports to newspapers, magazines as well news outlets on radio and television. The first news agency, Agence France-Presse, was founded in 1835 by Charles-Louis Havas - it was initially called Agence Havas. For decades after the establishment of the first news agencies, news reports had to be sent through ships, post trains and carrier pigeons. Reuters, founded by Paul Reuter, one of Havas' employees relied on carrier pigeons for decades until the telegraph links were established. Agence Havas, Reuters, and Wolffs Telegraphisches Bureau, founded by another of Havas' employees, Bernhard Wolff, remained the most important news agencies in Europe for over 75 years.

Today, there are dozens of news agencies relying phone, fax and the Internet to receive and distribute news from almost anywhere in the world. Indeed we've come a long way from the age of the post trains and the carrier pigeons with the global newswires able to convey the news of even a minor incident happening anywhere to almost every part of the world in the blink of an eye.

Global newswires today are used by the academics and the researchers in addition to the media outlets, reporters, bloggers and journalists who want to find out more about a topic. They offer news reports ranging from everything from politics, business and finance to showbiz, weather and sports etc.

For businesses who have something newsworthy to report to their customers as well as the people at large, global newswires are the best way to reach their target audience. Product launches, upcoming events, personnels change at the company, awards and honors etc are only some of the things that companies create press releases for and send to the newswires. Quarterly reports as well as news that the shareholders of a company might find interesting are also disseminated through the global newswires.

While some of the newswires require their users, which usually include newspapers, magazines, TV channels and other media outlets, to pay a subscription fee, others rely on a slightly different business model to generate their revenue. They use the traffic that is attracted by the great content on their website as their revenue stream. Some newswires also require a subscription fee from the organizations and businesses who want to send their press releases to the journalists, bloggers and media outlets etc.

Home Business News - A Cell Phone Store and Virtual Franchise Opportunities

There's something revolutionary to report in the home business news field. T-Mobile and a company called Liberty International have teamed up to create a home based business in the cell phone market. Competition between wireless carriers is fierce. This has forced some mobile phone companies to become more imaginative in their approaches to attracting new customers. One of those ways is to turn customers into small business owners.

Up until now, the only start up businesses available to consumers in the wireless industry have been via the retail phone stores route. These opportunities are valid in the own right, but few people can afford the investment required or the costs involved in operating one. A virtual franchise opportunity, on the other hand, has access to the same kind of phones, gadgets, and phone service plans as the retail shop and the major carriers themselves.

Entry into the home business opportunity from T-Mobile and Liberty International is done by enrolling in one of their special unlimited wireless plans. From there, if you can refer three people to the same plan you will get your cell phone bill free. Commissions and residual income are earned by building a network of customers and other small business owners. There is no rent to pay, employees to hire, accounting to calculate or paperwork to file. All business transactions are done online. The internet has now become the method of commerce for much of the world's business. Maybe it's time for you to get a piece of the financial action, too.
