Interviewing hard money lender

[Steven Bays]

I wonder if anyone could help me with some pointers or questions on interviewing hard money lenders, banks for financing or refinancing investment properties.

If you also know of a book that addresses this specifically, or a thread, I want to be prepared for my first brrrr and want to have a few lenders in my pocket if nothing more than for confidence.

So, if my BiggerPockets friends and colleagues could help, having questions so that I can call and filter HML and banks to refinance to build a list. I know I am missing a lot of questions outside the main ones.

Thank you all infinitely for your time and wisdom.
