Yes, Kevin. I organize a group that meets primarily in Monmouth County. We should have our next meeting details posted in a few days. I'll let you know when it's up so that you don't miss it.

 Thank you Mark!

Post: NJ Lenders for rehab advice.

I am planning to do my first fix and flip in NJ and I am looking for financing.  From what I have been reading, to get private money can be a bit of a challenge for the first project.  I have been doing a bit of research on hard money lenders (and there are certainly a lot out there) but I do not want to get in bed with the wrong lender.  I have seen interest percentages and points run what I think to be fairly high. What are acceptable percentages in this market?  There seem to be quite a few shady companies out there, judging by their websites.(Being a web developer I look at website whois info to find out who the site is registered to and any company information behind it.)  For me when it comes to money deals I need to know who I am working with. Does anyone have any advice for me on this topic.  And please correct me if I am wrong on any of my assumptions.

Thank you!

Kevin

Just wanted to say hi to everyone!  I just recently joined BP to make new connections and start to move forward on a rehab project.  I just finished rehabbing my own house after it was destroyed and found a passion for the work.  I hope to get to work with some of you and look forward to learning from you all.
