First Time Buyer Seeking Lender Recommendations

[Romnick Dancel]

Hello BiggerPockets community!

I'm currently in the process of getting pre-approvals as I'm getting ready to buy my first property and primary residence. I'm wanting to invest in a duplex or a single family home that has an ADU I can rent out.

I will be looking to buy in the next 6 months, but I wanted to figure out how much house I’m able to afford. I’ve already got a preapproval from Homebridge so far, but prefer to get preapproved by other lenders to have options.

I’m based in Milwaukie, OR, and I will be investing in my local market. If you have local lenders and national lenders you recommend, I would surely appreciate it!

Thank you and I’m looking forward to contributing to this community in any I can!
