Setting up

[Justin Murray]

Hi All, I'm curious.. I'd like to start finding a private lender, maybe hard money. but i'm wondering if i should have a business set up first? would i want an LLC? how do i set one up? any input would be appreciated. All investing i've done so far has been with my own money. I'd like to grow. any recommendations on what i should do first? before i reach out to hard money lenders.. ?/ thanks

P.S. this is my first post on BP..
