Lenders in Knoxville, TN area

[Benjamin Barredo]

Hey guys. Just wondering if anyone is having luck with finding lenders in the Knoxville, TN area? Lenders that will work with non-accredited, first time investors that have a deal but no history of successful investing are what I'm looking for. 

HML, large and small banks, credit unions, etc.

I'm thinking about applying for a unsecured line of credit to come up with enough money for a down payment. My plan is to use the BRRRR method to acquire quickly and build a portfolio. I have lost time to make up for.

How did you start out with no money?
