GSP REI is a diversified real estate investment company based in the Philadelphia area.

I have some exposure to real estate investing as I work as a commercial lender.

Hi All,I’m excited to join this platform and connect with other professionals in the real estate industry.

I've helped people with SBA loans to purchase real estate for a business, but for buying rental real estate, the DSCR loan is a much better option.

I’m new to real estate investing and looking for input.

We host a free real estate meetup the first saturday of every month if you are interested in coming and meet some awesome real estate investors who are looking to do their first deal to savy seasoned investors.
