Private Lending in 2026: How to Protect Your Money in a Slower Market
Details
Private lending worked differently in fast markets than it does today.
- Deals are taking longer to sell.
- Rents aren’t rising like they used to.
- Expenses keep climbing.
That means lenders who relied on loose underwriting, minimal paperwork, or “it’ll be fine” assumptions are now feeling the pressure.
That’s why MAREI is hosting this all-day, online Private Lending Masterclass for current and future private lenders who want to protect capital and make smarter lending decisions in 2026.
### You’ll learn:
- How today’s market changes private lending risk
- How to evaluate deals and collateral realistically
- What paperwork and insurance must be in place before funding
- Warning signs that a loan is heading toward trouble
- Smarter ways to deal with slow or distressed loans
- How to build a repeatable, safer lending system
This session is open to members and non-members, whether you’re brand new to private lending or already have money out in the field.
🎥 Recording included for all registrants.
