Not all financing is created equal.
In this video, Scott from Goat Funding Group breaks down the real differences between bank loans, hard money, and DSCR financing for real estate investors. He explains why the real question is not just the cost of money — it’s whether the money is actually available in time to close the deal.
Scott covers:
bank loans vs hard money vs DSCR
down payment differences
credit and underwriting requirements
ARV-based lending
why speed matters in investment deals
when paying a little more can still make you more profit
If you buy investment properties, flips, or time-sensitive deals, this is a must-watch.
