But checking other markets, TN, NC etc… we don’t have the connections. 

@Kris Langlois thanks for the recommendation I will check it out!

As to the original question where to get the data  I highly recommend Property Radar  check it out.

I will check out the find a lender tab.

In many instances like this one - by the time it gets investigated damage is already done Ever try FINRA broker check?  

Do you both leave all your money working and double it each year?

Now keep in mind I had already done my own title search and a date down so I knew the state of the title. 1.Cashiers Check to Seller in exchange for the Notarized deed  You do this at a notary and the amount of the check is the sellers equity and what you negotiated. 2.

Hello Neil,I recommend checking for companies that invest in themselves by being members of local realtor boards , local and national associations like NARPM (National Association Residential Property Management). 

Plan on 65% LTC, at least one sponsor/borrower that has done a similar project in the past in terms of scope and dollar amount (inclusive of if you add a new partner willing to share in the risk/reward), 10% post-close liquidity (can't use loan proceeds to check this box), net worth equal to or greater than the requested loan amount not including subject property in net worth calculation (adding the other sponsor/borrower can fix this, too).
