Hi, I am loooking for suggestions for finding hard money lenders in Arkansas or surrounding areas. 

Your money is working for you in two places at once, you get insurance, and you can repeat the process with very competitive rates and flexibility (particularly for fix/flips).2.

I really want to get into flipping houses if not at least working on the in my own time, however; I am worried about the time and money aspect.

Can I charge my business as I am lending the money?

I think you might end up leaving quite a bit of money on the table.

We obtained a hard-money loan from Upright to help us fund this deal.

What you probably mean is that you think you can make enough money as a wholesaler to start investing, but that is 1 in 10,000 or more probably who start.

We used that money over time and saved up.
