Hi BP folks, As I'm looking for my next deal through a wholesaler (my first proprety was found on MLS) I'm searching for a hard money lender on the treasure coast who could do a least 85% LTV. 

-Duplex listed for $345K (two 3/1’s with yard .38 acre)-Now under contract for $325K (seller attempting to make $25K in deferred maintenance repairs)- My wife is broker- Currently rented for $2650 (7.1% CRate)- C+ to B- property in B to B+ location- We will manage- not much of a value add in near future, likey 6-8 years before any meaningful improvements- approx 170 MF units built 3 years ago and another 170 units starting now in very close prox.

You have to check every aspect of their business just like you check every aspect of a tenant application.You can start by going to www.narpm.org and search their directory of managers.

So, most large investors are doing what's called value-add, where you improve the property to raise rents.
