How did you acquire "a small portfolio of long term rentals". Paid cash? No past mortgage broker contacts? Where have you been? What have you been doing?

You sound well profiled.  But no local contacts?  No current lender relationships?  No personal contact at a local credit union?

There is no 1 thing.
For a full loan package, I need a full package on the borrower: 1) experience, 2) credit score, 3) good numbers in the deal, 4) ability to repay and finally 5) only loan up to 50% of the value of the lien that I file and hold.
