Most people don’t lose money in real estate because they picked the wrong house…
They lose money because they didn’t understand the financing strategy behind the deal.
This week on the Exit Strategies Radio Show, host Corwyn J. Melette sits down with William Harvey, founder of Harvey Capital, to unpack the realities of private lending, hard money financing, house flipping, hospitality investing, and what homeowners and aspiring investors need to understand before jumping into a deal.
From common mistakes that cost people money to understanding risk, equity, and financing strategy, this conversation is packed with practical insights for anyone looking to build wealth through real estate while protecting their financial future.
Will shares how he went from a double college dropout to building a real estate investment and hard money lending business — while also discussing the importance of faith, stewardship, and legacy-building.
