Staring out using lenders ( the right lender)

[Gino Prestia]

Hello everyone, as I start my real estate journey I really hope on connecting and partnering with the right lenders. I would appreciate any advice on the vetting processes you used to help find the right person to start your journey with. Totally understand it depends on what kind of investment strategy you want to use, but I feel main concepts still apply ( maybe I am wrong!). Ultimately the goal is to build a great, creative relationship with the right lender whose in my corner and I can trust. Thanks for taking the time to read this and help a guy out! Side Note: Up front capital from my side is not an issue for down payments, and leaning towards the fix and flip strategy to build some cash and roll into a 1031 to ultimately get into the multi family space.  I come from a background of contractors so its something I feel pretty comfortable facilitating. Thanks again!
