About Yoav Gilad
Yoav began investing in real estate in 2007, just in time for his first rental purchase to lose half its value. Fortunately, he hadn’t quit his day job just yet. After the recovery, Yoav and his wife and partner, Marcia, flipped houses, wrote land-contract deals, and BRRR’d other homes. When someone coincidentally approached the Gilads for a loan, they incorporated Green Block and wrote their first loan. They are now full-time private lenders in 44 states, with investors across the country. Additionally, they have participated in multiple syndications and were key partners in their first deal, a 98-unit, last year. Yes, the rate is locked (at 4.25%) and the property is performing well.
