First recommendation is to get the property under contract. THEN, look for your funding.
If the deal falls through because of lack of funding, you're not out anything, except your time.
I want to be very clear though, you should spend 100% of your time looking for financing once that property is under contract.
In parallel, once it is under contract, start looking for a buyer to assign it to. That way, if you can't find financing, at least you can wholesale it to an end-buyer and still make some change.
