How to convert leads to loans - #293

In the hard money lending business, leads are everywhere—texts, emails, web forms, phone calls, social media. But how do you turn those inquiries into actual closed loans?

In this episode of the Private Lenders Podcast, Jason and Chris break down the exact process they use to respond, nurture, and follow up with leads so they don’t slip through the cracks. From fast phone responses to automated texts, emails, and CRM follow-up, you’ll learn how to stop wasting opportunities and start closing more deals.

We cover:

• Why speed-to-lead is everything in lending

• The biggest mistakes lenders make with new inquiries

• Simple scripts and strategies for first conversations

• Automations that keep borrowers engaged (without overcomplicating things)

• How to follow up with “maybes” and get to a yes or no

• Why consistent lead flow is the #1 growth driver for lenders

Whether you’re new to private lending or looking to scale, this episode will help you sharpen your process and close more loans from the leads you already have.
