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. Most investors lose out on 87% of real estate deals simply because they don’t have access to the money to fund them. But what if you could change that? 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. He knows what works, what doesn’t, and how to help you stop chasing bad advice from so-called “gurus” who haven’t done a deal in years.
In every episode, you’ll learn:
- How to find and raise private money to fund your real estate deals on YOUR terms (no banks, no hard money lenders).
- Strategies for creating consistent deal flow and turning your investing business into a reliable source of income.
- How to structure deals with private lenders and create win-win relationships that benefit everyone involved.
- Real-world, step-by-step advice from investors who’ve been where you are and completely changed their game using private money.
This isn’t theory or fluff. It’s the real deal. Jay and his guests break down real-world deals, showing you the numbers, the challenges, and the solutions, so you can see how to apply these lessons to your own business. Whether you’re brand new to real estate, struggling to find consistency, or a seasoned investor looking to scale, this show is your blueprint for success.

Diversifying Investments for Passive Income: Brian Davis Explains His Strategies
In an enlightening episode of the 'Raising Private Money' podcast, host Jay Conner is joined by Brian Davis, a seasoned real estate expert. Having founded the innovative Spark Rental, Brian shares invaluable insights on how both novice and experienced investors can achieve financial freedom through co-investing and private money. Coupled with his advice on intentional lifestyle design, Brian presents a blueprint for transforming how we perceive work, time, and investments.
The Concept of Co-Investing: A Gateway for Middle-Class Investors
The cornerstone of Brian's approach lies in making real estate investments accessible to middle-class investors. His Co-Investing Club offers a compelling solution, allowing members to pool resources and bypass the traditionally prohibitive entry costs of real estate syndications and equity funds.
Unlike conventional investments, which require significant capital, the club invites members to engage with just a $5 minimum investment. This model not only opens doors for those with limited resources but also offers diversification for those with larger investment capabilities. Through collective vetting of high-return, low-risk opportunities—deemed "asymmetric returns" by Brian—the club democratizes access to quality real estate investments.
Demystifying Asymmetric Returns: High Gains, Low Risks
Brian introduces the idea of asymmetric returns, challenging the traditional assumption that high returns are inherently tied to high risks. Instead, he encourages a more nuanced view, recognizing investments as multifaceted opportunities influenced by factors beyond risk and return.
For instance, liquidity, time commitment, and investment minimums play pivotal roles in crafting a balanced portfolio. By understanding these dynamics, investors can seek opportunities that offer substantial returns with controlled risk exposure. Brian’s investment club is a testament to this, strategically positioning its members to tap into diverse, high-performing assets without conventional barriers.
The Role of Lifestyle Design in Financial Freedom
Beyond investments, Brian advocates for conscious lifestyle design—a principle that resonates deeply with his life as an expatriate. With his family, Brian has crafted a lifestyle that prioritizes experiences and financial efficiency over traditional job constraints. By leveraging international living, they enjoy significant cost savings while accessing rich cultural experiences.
Lifestyle design is more than a trending concept. It’s an intentional process where individuals identify their core values and align their life decisions accordingly. Brian emphasizes the importance of financial planning, location independence, and work flexibility in this journey. By focusing on what truly matters, individuals can design lives that are not only financially sustainable but also deeply fulfilling.
Steps to Your Ideal Life: Embracing the Five Freedoms
Brian outlines a practical framework called the "Five Freedoms" to aid listeners in mapping their ideal lives:
- Financial Freedom: Eliminate financial stress by establishing a sturdy monetary foundation—encompassing budgeting, savings, and emergency funds.
- Time Freedom: Adjust your work schedule to gain control over your hours, enabling a healthier work-life balance.
- Location Freedom: Decide where you want to live and work, embracing opportunities that might lie beyond your current locale.
- Work Freedom: Pursue work that aligns with your passions and values, recognizing that true satisfaction often comes from doing meaningful work.
- Comprehensive Financial Independence: While complete financial freedom is desirable, achieving work freedom allows for a balanced fulfillment between personal dreams and financial responsibilities.
