  • EP169 | Inside Private Capital
    Jan 19 2026

    Jay Conner joins host Mark Monroe on this powerful episode of the Real Estate Power Play Podcast to break down one of the most misunderstood, and profitable, aspects of real estate investing: private money.

    In this episode, Jay shares how the 2009 financial crisis forced him to rethink traditional bank funding and led him to raise over $2.15 million in private money in less than 90 days, without pitching deals, begging banks, or asking for money.

    Inside this episode, you’ll learn:
    • Private money vs. hard money (and why the difference matters)
    • How to fund 100% of your deals without banks
    • Why “get the deal first, the money will show up” is a dangerous myth
    • How to structure private lending safely and securely
    • The exact script Jay uses to get deals funded every time
    • How self-directed IRAs unlock capital from everyday people

    Jay explains why you should line up the money first, how desperation sabotages deals, and how to position yourself as the opportunity, not the borrower.

    If funding has ever been your bottleneck, this episode will completely change how you approach real estate investing.

    Tune in now and learn how true power players control the money before they control the deals.
