Recent Immigrant just starting out in Real Estate Investing

[Wilfred Khalik]

I wanted to ask this question to @DavidGreene on a webinar he hosted today but the chat feature was disabled. My bank says that I need 2 years of work history to qualify for a real estate mortgage so I have to wait another 14 months before I can take out a mortgage with them. I have heard of mortgage brokers and am wondering if anyone in the Bay Area on this forum has experience working with one and if this route is even recommended for financing purposes.

Thanks
