Hard Money Lending For a New Investor

[Garrett Hicks]

Hey guys.  As a new investor, I am looking to make my first deal.  I have zero money up front and will be able to save $1000 a month beginning Sept.  However, I am eager to start now and want to be creative and won't take no for an answer.  So, I am looking into every way possible to get my first rental (if best option for me) as soon as I can.  Then I want to start the ball rolling towards long term wealth.  That brings me to hard money lending.  I am not very learned on the issue, but want more information.  Can you lovely people share with me some info, links, resources, people, etc, to help me build my knowledge and potentially get me going?

Thanks in advance for your response.
