Hard Money Lending for Flips

[Connor Lewis]

Hello BP! 

I have a goal to complete my first flip this year. I don’t have all cash in hand, so I’m looking for a hard money lender. Does anyone in the Kentucky area have any recommendations for hard money lenders that they’ve worked with? I could go online and find someone, but I prefer to rely on referrals first.

Following that question, for those who have done flips with hard money, what should I be aware of? I understand the basic premise, but is there any advice you’d give to someone starting out? I appreciate any and all responses. Thank you!
