Where do I find Hard Money/Private lenders?

[Jack Phillips]

I'm in NJ and I'm just getting started in RE. I am buying land, going to build the house from scratch and sell it. Basically RE Development. My Dad has been a contractor for 30+ years so thats why I'm going this route. 

My only question is how do I find hard money/private lenders for this sort of thing. It would be a 2-3 month project I'd assume to get everything built and sold. Are there lenders who do this? Where do I find them? Thanks

a new build in 2 to 3 months ?? thats some pretty quick time lines .  Most construction loans are written for 12 months or longer and most new build to sold and closed average closer to 9 months or more.. I would use those figures when you run your pro forma i dont think many lenders are going to buy off on a 2 to 3 month start to finish.. just sayin.
