Private Money

Broker Certification

All Private Money Broker Certification classes are held at least quarterly. The basic class is held in major metropolitan areas, and the Senior and Master Broker classes are held in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.

Become certified as a broker for thousands of Private Money Lenders throughout the country. Get into the world of alternative real estate financing, and completely change your finances, and the finances of people in your circle who need or have private money.

Why Certification?

A private money broker is an intermediary who brings non-owner occupied real estate investor borrowers and private money institutions together. The broker’s essential function is to gather paperwork from these borrowers and oversee the loan and packaging process for submission to the lender for underwriting, approval, and funding. The mortgage funds are then lent in the name of the private money institution. Upon closing, the private money broker receives an origination fee from the private money institution as compensation for the services provided.

There are people all over the country begging for returns on their money higher than the paltry amount paid by banks for CDs and other deposits. They want to lend to smart real estate investors, but don’t know how to find them.

Brokers don’t need sales pitches because there are so many folks in the marketplace looking for funding right now. There is no overhead, no receivables, no refunds, and no losses. This is a service well accepted and revered by borrowers as well as lenders.

As an Independent Certified Private Money Broker, our sister company, Cogo Capital, performs the underwriting, approval, and even the funding — providing you with a direct private money source. Our program offers 3 levels of certified training: Basic Certification, Senior Broker, and Master Broker options. Each certification level earns 1-3 percent in origination fees, respectively. This means if 1% in origination points is paid out of closing (loan amount x 0.01), a basic-level Certified Broker will earn $1,000.00 on a $100k loan.
