I received a free copy of this book from an investment advisor who handles these transactions.
This book talks about bridge loans. These are temporary loans secured by real estate. They typically run 12-18 months. You receive your principal plus a contractual rate of interest. The author advertises these as alternatives to the stock market, 401(k)s, and IRAs. He says the fees brokers take out for managing the money can cut the return in half.
The book is a sales pitch for investing in these loans. They need investors to provide money for these loans. The risk is lessened because real estate secures the loan. The risk is not zero, however. The book says that even some funds that were around before 2008 have tightened their requirements, so that not as many properties are available.
If you're thinking of investing in these, the minimum amount necessary is $25,000. There are no guarantees, except that the loan is secured by real estate. This would be a good book to read to get some basic information. As always, though, invest your time before you invest your money. Remember, too, the book is written to sell you on the idea of bridge loans, so that is its point of view.
