Steven Loewer, founder of Lion’s Den Capital, joins Dave to share how he helps high-net-worth individuals and families invest in private mortgages that are backed by real estate. Learn how Steven carved out a niche in short-term, rural-market lending—where banks typically won’t go—and built his business by connecting ready capital with borrowers who need flexible solutions fast.
Steven explains why his firm works exclusively through mortgage brokers, the typical underwriting process they follow, and how his team evaluates risk and opportunity. He also dives into how Canadians can leverage self-directed RRSPs and TFSAs to grow wealth passively—without becoming a landlord.
Whether you’re a curious investor or a real estate pro looking for smarter financing options, Steven’s insights are practical, actionable, and eye-opening.
