Hi everyone! We are a husband and wife team working with my father David to build and diversify our small RE investing business in North Florida. My father has about a dozen rental properties and my husband and I have one. We have extensive experience at remodeling (between these properties and our own homes).

We have joined BiggerPockets because we are interested in buying and rehabbing properties as well as purchasing a few additional rentals, particularly multiple family units. We would like to learn more about (and possibly meet) hard money lenders so that we can partner with other RE investors and skip the traditional bank mortgage route in trying to meet our goals.

Hi @Zoe Mercier and Buddy, welcome to BP!

You'll find a lot of hard money lenders here, as well as plenty of great content on buying and renovating rental properties.

Since you're new to the site, here are a few tips to help you get the most out of BP:

Start here. You'll get a wealth of REI knowledge and learn how to take full advantage of Bigger Pockets (including how to connect with other local investors).

Listen to the podcasts , get active on the forums & set up key word alerts to be notified when people are discussing topics you're interested in.

Check out the webinars, they are very informative, and there’s usually a new one every week.

I'm an agent & investor in the Orlando area, so reach out anytime.  I wish you both all the best!
