In fact, New Jersey law prohibits you from listing personal identifiers on the form. 

I need all the friends I can get since I currently only know one person (who I don't really know).

Hello @Yvonne Wang,The scope of work should include the following:- Basic info: Property address, client name, contractor's contact info, address, license#'s, signed general/operating agreement b/w contractor and client- Specification of repairs: Repair item, Quantity of items needed, total & per unit cost of items, taxes (if applicable), Completion hours, title of the person responsible for the repair item, written summary describing the work- Add'l info: Schedule of repairs, additional payment schedule details i.e. disbursement schedule, method of disbursement, deposits, holdback amounts, etc.The screenshot below highlights a couple of repair items.

Does anyone know stats on this or have personal experience in this region?

You absolutlely need to be direct to seller or have close, personal relationships with wholesalers and active agents.

It's important to understand that a person can sue another person, but that doesn't constitute a judgment.

Not worth it if you have to feed the thing.But again, what are your personal goals to investing.

Unrelated persons ordinances are common. 

I haven’t personally had a bad experience yet, but I know it’s definitely something that can happen in private money lending.

@Nicholas Nakamura can you make a trip out there in person?
