What does it take to walk away from a stable job and build a multimillion-dollar lending business? Avery Robertson pulls back the curtain on his remarkable journey from cattle rancher to capital provider in this riveting conversation.
Avery's story begins in the wide-open spaces of one of America's largest cattle ranches before transitioning to agricultural lending. All the while, a passion for real estate investment simmered beneath the surface. Despite years of attending investor meetups and analyzing potential deals, Avery found himself stuck on the sidelines – until a pivotal moment when he realized his lending expertise could become his competitive advantage.
The path wasn't straightforward. There were nail-biting moments of committing to loans before having all the capital lined up, the constant balancing act of finding quality borrowers while raising investor funds, and eventually, that heart-pounding day when he finally quit his stable job. Now, with over $18 million in loans facilitated, mobile home parks in his portfolio, and an RV park under management, Avery shares the unfiltered truth about hard money lending and real estate investment.
What makes this conversation particularly valuable is Avery's transparency about both the challenges and strategies. He reveals his criteria for evaluating borrowers, red flags that make him hesitate, and his approach to structuring deals as win-win scenarios. For those curious about real estate lending, his explanation of the differences between joint venture partnerships and debt funds provides crucial insights rarely discussed in public forums.
Perhaps most compelling is Avery's reflection on the psychological journey – overcoming fear, developing grit, and finding the courage to take that next step forward. As he puts it, "Don't let fear rule you... use it to make sure you're making a wise decision, but jump in." His straightforward advice to take whatever opportunity stands directly in front of you serves as a powerful reminder that entrepreneurial success isn't built through giant leaps but through consistent, determined progress.
