Why Inflation Changes How You Should Think About High Rates with Peter Hoff

Peter Hoff is a loan officer at LoanBidz who works with real estate investors daily on bridge loans, DSCR rentals, and fix-and-flip financing. Before landing in private lending, Peter laid underground power lines for new developments, worked construction with his uncle, and earned his Eagle Scout — a background that gives him a practical, problem-solving lens that translates directly into how he handles borrowers who are new, skeptical, or stuck on the wrong numbers.

In this episode of The Deal Vault, Greg sits down with Peter to work through the most common objections investors raise when they encounter private lending for the first time. From appraisal fees and rate sticker shock to the “lower rate” competitor that turned out to be a completely different loan product, Peter walks through exactly how he navigates each conversation—and why experience in this seat means catching one small word or phrase that can redirect an entire deal before it goes sideways.
