Edwin Epperson
Edwin Epperson created and managed two prior close-ended mortgage funds for 2018 and 2020. He currently manages a private crypto trading fund and a customizable real estate debt and equity fund. He designed and developed underwriting criteria for private loans secured to single-family residences, allowing him to keep his default rate under 0.04% annually of all loans deployed. He has processed and underwritten over 150+ loans and deployed over $30,000,000 in loans secured to single-family real estate and investment borrowers since 2014. Strategic partnerships and creative deal structures have allowed him to create and share joint ventures with his partner investors as well as a low leveraged 2nd lien position. Through his dedication to low-risk, high-return investment loans, his capital partners have enjoyed annual returns between 7.50% to 15.00% over nine years of lending. Edwin is the creator and developer of a first-of-its-kind private lending course, which takes capital investors with no knowledge of private lending to be able to make their first low-risk, secured real estate loan within a matter of days. This has allowed capital investors to utilize their retirement accounts, as well as other capital accounts, to make secured investment loans while also providing more lending opportunities for Edwin and his capital partners.
Edwin served in the United States Military U.S. Army from 2002 until his honorable discharge in 2015. Finishing his career as a combat diver with the US Army Green Berets, he personally was responsible for over $30,000,000 in military hardware and communication equipment. He oversaw and led the training and cooperation with the foreign military in military high-frequency and satellite communications training, unconventional warfare, foreign internal defense, and direct kinetic operations in permissive and non-permissive environments. He personally trained and conducted operations with Iraqi, Afghani, Egyptian, and Colombian special operations forces.
He is an active member in his local church, married for 10 years and has two sons. He enjoys a good bourbon, cigars and diving in his free time.
