Raising Private Money with Jay Conner
Are you a real estate investor who’s tired of missing out on deals because you don’t have the money to fund them? Maybe you’re just starting in real estate, overwhelmed by all the conflicting advice, and wondering how to break through.
Or you’ve done a few deals, but your business feels more like a hobby than a reliable source of income. If you’re struggling to take your real estate business to the next level, this show is for you.
Welcome to The Private Money Show with Jay Conner, where we cut through the noise to give you the truth about real estate investing—and the tools you need to succeed.

What if you could fund every deal you wanted, eliminate your competition, and grow your business faster than you ever thought possible?
Each week, Jay Conner—the Private Money Authority—shares exactly how to raise private money to fund your deals, close more opportunities, and build a thriving, consistent real estate business. Jay has been in the trenches of real estate investing full-time since 2003, and he’s still doing it every day.

Raising Private Money with Jay Conner
The Power of Creative Real Estate Financing with Experts Melanie & Dave Dupuis
In the world of real estate investing, achieving financial success often hinges on the ability to skillfully navigate the complex arena of private funding and creative financing. Melanie and Dave Dupuis have mastered this art, acquiring over 240 apartments across multiple countries, notably without deploying their initial capital or forging joint venture partnerships. Today’s podcast hosted by Jay Conner sheds light on the diligent craftsmanship of real estate deals by this power couple.
Crafting Calculated Improvements
Dave Dupuis delves into the nuances of enhancing properties–a blend of minor cosmetic changes that significantly raise appreciation while carefully weighing the potential risks, such as increased vacancy rates tied to raised rents. His precision in projecting expenses illustrates the critical balance between improvement costs and rental price upticks.
Embracing the Mathematical Approach
The host, alongside Melanie and Dave, unearths the analytical framework essential in real estate investment. They collectively underscore the irreplaceable role of arithmetical strategies over emotional decision-making, crafting a pathway where clear logic and numbers craft success.
Building Relationships in Financing
The couple's journey to amassing their impressive portfolio started with their initial approach to raising private money, where they proposed mutually beneficial deals. They stress the importance of secure terms for lenders, articulating their practice in navigating owner financing, private and registered funds, and promissory notes.
Strategies for Growth and Stability
Melanie and Dave's philosophy revolves around deal-specific methodologies and stabilizing properties post-growth. Their 'buy, renovate, rent, refinance, repeat' (BRRR) strategy underscores the need for thoughtful exit strategies, illustrating their savvy and systemic approach to building a diverse and profitable real estate portfolio.
Social Media and Education
With a burgeoning social media presence exceeding 700,000 followers, the Dupuis duo harnesses these platforms to share their intellectual capital. They advocate the indispensability of networking, consistency, and educating oneself through meetups and actionable content, as found in their thoughtful book 'iLoveOPM' and free videos offering real estate investing insights.
Conclusion: A Call for Action and Engagement
The episode wraps up on an encouraging note, with Jay Conner inviting listeners to engage with content through various mediums and promoting his 'Raising Private Money' show. Melanie and Dave's parting wisdom is a clarion call to adopt the right mindset, pursue education, and take the actionable steps necessary to create wealth and realize real estate ambitions.
Real Estate Networking Tips:
"There's always things that you can go to to start learning for free. Start having conversations. You're going to meet property managers there who might have clients who are looking to liquidate. You might meet other owners that are possibly looking at selling and maybe their kids or their beneficiaries are not interested. You might be able to pick things up."
