Private Money Lender

[Anthony J Robinson]

I'm new to real estate investments, just have a question and would like as much feedback as possible.

I found a motivated seller who wants out of their property. The property will cost $45k to purchase and needs about 65k-70k for the total rehab the ARV is $180,000. I have a contractor that agrees to use his own money to complete the rehab. The seller wants the purchase to be cash but I don't have access to a private money lender. What is the best route to take to get this project complete?

(I'm not looking to wholesale the deal)
