Commercial, Portfolio, DSCR, or Private Lender

Hey all,

I'm looking for some advice on which type of lender to use and then looking for referrals for that type of lender in the Columbus area. Some background:

I own a few properties in Columbus and Dayton, OH (a mix of SFR and small MFRs) all of which are financed using traditional Fannie/Freddie lenders. I'm getting close to my 10 loan limit and would also like to work with someone who is more investor friendly and hopefully is less hassle and still has good rates. I currently have a duplex that I'm BRRR-ing and looking to refi in a couple of months. I also want to buy another 20+ units this year, ideally as one building, but it may be split over a couple depending on the deal. I'm looking to cash-out-refi on these too expecting to only get 70% LTV (although if I could get 75% LTV that'd be great). All my properties are cash flow positive and my FICO fluctuates between the high 700s and low 800s.


I'd like to find a lender who can facilitate all my new properties. So my question is, when considering these types of lenders, Commercial, Portfolio, DSCR, or Private which type of lender would be best suited for scaling my portfolio?

Cheers,
Justin

    @Timothy Hero I have rates in the high 3s and low 4s on the bulk of my portfolio, so refi-ing doesn't make sense as it'll reduce my cash flow. I have no issue with them being on my credit profile, at least not at the moment anyway. @Eugene Neal so it sounds like a portfolio lender may be my best bet since my credit profile is solid. I'll DM you to see if this makes sense.

    Cheers
