Exhaust the bank loans or head straight to Portfolio Lender
Hello All
Although I have money to invest, I want to leverage the majority % my real estate investments. I’d like to purchase many properties, while putting 20-25% down - pretty standard.
Here is my question… Should I exhaust all my conventional bank loans, most likely getting better rates, and having an easier time of it, or do I develop a relationship immediately with a Portfolio lender, who will, hopefully, be competitive and in it for the long haul?
OhAlso, if I invest out of state, should I use a lender in my own back yard, or is it better to have someone in the city in which I am investing. Thanks!
