To look at it from the other side, as a private money lender in my local market I need someone to find me the deals.

As a General Contractor myself here in east central Texas, I can tell you that connecting with local GCs via Facebook groups can be incredibly helpful.

Attend every local REI MeetUp you can.

Did you guys go to the local PD, DA, FBI, etc? 

Start by networking with local investors, identifying target neighborhoods, running numbers on potential deals, and lining up financing so you're ready to act when the right opportunity comes up!

Hi Michael, we're a national lender, so if you need financing in either locale, feel free to reach out!

Running numbers, networking, and talking to local investors will boost your confidence when it’s time to pull the trigger.
