Tips for speaking with lenders for the first time

[Jennifer Dargento]

I’d love any tips for speaking with lenders as a beginner investor for the first time.

Goal is to build a portfolio of cash-flowing rental properties, so ability to scale is top priority for acquisition. Unfortunately I don’t think house-hacking is a realistic option right now for me, but open to 203k or OOS investing (haven’t chosen a market yet).

Debt free, excellent credit, minimal capital to invest but actively saving and adding to it.

A good lender will present all loan products to you and recommend what works best for your scenario. Work with lenders who invest in real estate themselves.
