Let’s explore what happens when a deal doesn’t go as planned, addressing both the perspectives of the deal maker or borrower, and the investor. Our philosophy at Realty Lending USA is centered on achieving a WIN/WIN/WIN outcome, and we genuinely strive to make every deal work so that everyone benefits.
While we aim for all investments to be fully successful, the reality, especially in today’s economic climate, is that not all investments will be. In our underwriting process, we prioritize putting the investor in a position of high equity to safeguard their investments. To date, we have not experienced a financial loss on any investment, even when some deals have not gone as expected.

The Borrower or Deal Maker.
One of the critical components of our underwriting is the ‘4 Cs,’ including Character. This aspect becomes particularly relevant when challenges arise, such as missed payments or unforeseen issues in the transaction. We encourage borrowers to promptly contact us at South Wind Financial, INC to notify us of any problems. If the borrower lacks solutions, our team is ready to assist in devising a strategy to address these challenges.
The worst-case scenario for a borrower is to ignore the issues, leading to property foreclosure. We have systems to detect late or missed payments. If a borrower stops communicating, foreclosure becomes unavoidable due to our fiduciary duty to our investors.
Our approach is proactive; we work diligently to facilitate the deal and support the borrower, ensuring effective communication with the lender to make the deal successful.
In an ideal scenario, the borrower communicates transparently, allowing us to surmount any obstacles together.

The Investor.
Our primary responsibility is to the investor and the success of their investment. If negotiations and communications fail, we promptly initiate the foreclosure process, which, although time-consuming, is sometimes necessary to protect the investment.
In such cases, team members like Angel and John step in to manage the project. They foreclose on the property, take possession, and then evaluate the best possible use of the real estate to ensure the transaction is at least break-even or profitable.
This approach sets us apart from many private money lenders who might simply hand over a problematic transaction to an accredited investor and step away. Our values compel us to treat your investments with the utmost care, striving for a successful resolution in every situation.
Example: Lancaster, CA
A property in Lancaster, CA, exemplifies our approach. After foreclosure, the property is currently being inspected and managed by South Wind Financial. Angel and John have conducted a thorough inspection to assess its current condition.
The process from here involves strategizing and executing a plan that ensures the investor not only recovers the initial investment but also receives a return on that investment.
This comprehensive strategy underscores our commitment to integrity and excellence, ensuring that both borrowers and investors have robust support and viable strategies, even when challenges arise.
