Any reputable private lender / hard money to recommend in the New Jersey area? 

When you have an OOS property with a reputable Turnkey provider (or a truly solid, reputable PM, if you go the DIY route and assemble your own team) it cuts out the possibility of driving by, checking on tenants, etc.

I do have one investor whom I have worked with on previous flops as his buyer And listing Agent willing to finance with @ 65/ 35 split but I’m wanting to explore other option before committing.

Associating with those of low reputation may not only lower your own but also lead you astray by the faulty assumptions, premises and data of the unscrupulous."

I haven't explored hard money lenders because I can't handle the high percentage rates and balloon payments.

I am an active note buyer and would appreciate any feedback that the community can offer.Are they reputable, reliable, etc...Heres a link to their websitehttps://www.trustdeedresale.com/marketplaceThanks!

I'm wondering if there are any reputable ratings/reviews of the places. 

Unfortunately Kyle, my colleague, is in Portugal at the moment, but everyone says they should know a reputable person to get that job done.

An FHA allows us some flexibility which is nice because we can lay down a lower down payment and keep some of the money in reserve in case of emergency, but the appreciation of a home in Detroit with a conventional loan is much higher.One other option that we have explored is buying a rental for the purposes of Airbnb in a different state.

I've got a feeling that the truth lies somewhere in the middle, so I plan on exploring further.
