Hard Money and Private Funding
Hello all,
I am new to BiggerPockets and just wanted to introduce myself and let you know I have not purposely been shunning you all.
I have been very busy lately, getting my RE Investing biz starting, looking for properties, etc. I have become a Certified Affordable Housing Provider through Lou Brown's Street Smart program and set out to do a flip to raise more capital for investing. I located a good deal on HUDhomestore.com, but when I approached a hard money guy he wasn't interested.
Since then I set out to search the internet for hardmoney and private lenders, but am encountering some challenges.
I was wondering if anyone can steer me in the right direction to locate a "user friendly" source.
I am located in Tulsa Oklahoma, have flipped one property with a very modest profit - mainly because I had some bad advice from a mentor at the time, and worked with a local private money guy who I do not want to work with again - and I think the feeling is mutual.
(PS I currently own one rental property and my credit score is "fair")
Thanks for any feedback!
Harvey Altemose
