Loan options for purchasing 4 adjacent SFHs

[Daniel Hallman]

I'm contemplating a deal on 4 SFH investment properties that are all right next to each other in RVA.

What are my options for financing such a deal?

Where should I look for financing (national lenders, local brokers, banks, etc.)? 

What are the pros / cons of each?  I assume I can either bundle them as one commercial loan or 4 separate conventional residential loans.

This is my first investment(s).  

This forum is awesome!

EDIT: The properties are in good shape (very minor cosmetic needs) with existing tenants.  My plan is to buy and hold for cash flow.
