LOCAL TOMS RIVER MARKET KNOWLEDGE

A Toms River Market We Know From the Ground Up

HardMoneyMan.com is located just across the bridge from mainland Toms River on the barrier island in Ortley Beach. Toms River isn't a market we simply lend into from hundreds of miles away — it's our backyard.

We understand the investment properties, neighborhoods and unique characteristics that make the Toms River and Ocean County market different. From mainland areas such as Silverton, North Dover and downtown Toms River to the barrier-island communities of Ortley Beach and the surrounding Jersey Shore, we know the local market because we live and work here.

That local perspective matters when you're evaluating an investment property, estimating renovation costs, considering an exit strategy or trying to move quickly on a deal. When you work with HardMoneyMan.com, you're dealing with a direct lender physically located in the Toms River area — not a lender trying to understand the market from a map.

Ken Vesely
Direct Lender, HardMoneyMan.com — Based in Ortley Beach

Ken has been funding real estate deals since 1998, closing more than 25,000 loans in that time. But when it comes to Toms River, this isn't just a market he lends in — it's home. Ken lives in Ortley Beach, part of the Toms River market, and personally worked on renovation projects here after Hurricane Sandy.

That means he's not evaluating your Toms River deal from a desk somewhere else — he knows these streets, these flood zones, these rebuilds, because he's lived through them himself. That's the difference when you call HardMoneyMan.com.

Ken, simply put, is the man. I was weary of using hard money on a deal that I thought would be easy to get a conventional loan for, but then 2 different banks backed out on me. But not before they dragged me along for weeks and even months asking for more and more docs, papers, calls, emails, forms, etc. I thought it was finally all sewn up and then the bank pulled out literally the day before the appraisal appointment. At this point I had less than a month to get an entire new purchase loan AND cash-out refinance (to pay for the new down payment), and I called Ken. I have never in any industry in my life seen someone as responsive and proactive as Ken is. Calls, emails, texts, he is there to help. This was a commercial deal so the appraisal part took longer than residential, but Ken's lending side was quicker than anything I've ever seen. I was beyond stressed about this deal but with Ken's help we finally closed. I am so grateful and I cannot recommend him enough.

Ken is a valuable partner in business no nonsense type whom some would call abrasive but I appreciate because he has always been straight forward rates may be a bit higher but he can close. He is my go to lender whenever I need to close a deal.
