What services pick up money these days?

You may be able to find a hard money lender that can do it without personal credit. 

They build and invest to help improve the area, bring in better tenant pool, improve the economy and hopefully at the end of the day make a profit on the hard work, time, and money spent on that new development.  

Reno offers diverse investment strategies, including flipping, medium-term rentals (MTR), short-term rentals (STR), and long-term rentals (LTR).
