Recommendations for Hard Money Lenders in New Orleans, LA

[Nicholas Settoon]

I am looking for recommendations for Hard Money Lenders in the New Orleans area.  I would like to hear from others that have had personal experience with lenders that lend to this area.  I am from here and am looking to get some funding for my second overall deal.  I was planning on going with traditional financing but due to some rehab issues that need to get fixed, I can't find a company that will insure on it until the issues get taken care of.  Any recommendations or advice is welcome.  Thanks so much!
