Title: Thru the eyes of an investor
Post by: BmoreBirds88 on August 09, 2019, 11:00:00 PM
Hey ladies & gents,

I'm currently in the process of getting a prosper loan funded & this experience has made me extremely interested in the mindset of investors. I've watched videos + read articles about P2P investment strategies & what parameters investors typically like to set when searching for investment opportunities on both Prosper & LC but wanted to see if anyone here would be willing to provide some personal insight.

As I search thru the loans listed on Prosper I see many similar style loans being funded at different speeds. When comparing the borrowers profile some are vastly different which makes sense why the funding speed & overall interest would vary. On the flip side, when comparing nearly identical profiles, loan amount & terms the level of interest in funding seems to vary widely and I'm just curious, from the viewpoint of investors,  why this may be?

I hope this inquiry is clear. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. If you need me to clarify my question(s) or have any follow ups please do not hesitate to let me know!

Thanks everyone!
