About Vince Jacobs and Tar Heel Private Money

At Tar Heel Private Money, we understand the unique challenges real estate investors face because we've been in your shoes. As someone who has experienced the ups and downs of the fix-and-flip business as both a borrower and a principal investor, I, Vince Jacobs, saw firsthand the difficulties in maintaining a reliable network of lenders. The lack of true service-based firms made it clear there was a need for a better way to access capital without compromising time and focus.

Things changed when I decided to shift gears from investing in properties to funding them. In 2019, Tar Heel Private Money was founded to help other investors navigate the financial landscape more efficiently. Our mission is simple: provide fast, flexible, and reliable funding so you can focus on what matters most—finding the right properties and executing your vision.

Inspired by the history and legacy of North Carolina’s “Tar Heel” spirit, our firm embodies resilience, tenacity, and unwavering dedication to helping our clients succeed. Just as the brave soldiers of North Carolina stood firm in battle, Tar Heel Private Money stands firm in its commitment to offering competitive, cost-effective loan solutions, faster closings, and personalized account management.

Whether you’re a seasoned investor or just starting out, we offer real solutions to help you leverage your investments, maximize cash flow, and achieve your goals. From fix-and-flip projects to rental acquisitions, we provide tailored funding options designed to fit your needs. As real estate investors ourselves, we understand that your success is our success—and we’re here to support you every step of the way.

At Tar Heel Private Money, winning is in our blood, and we’re committed to making sure you win, too.
