Trying to find the best rates and terms without filling out a ton of applications. Who should I call? I need a company licensed in most of the Southern states.

You don't need to fill out a ton of applications to shop rates. Most decent lenders can give you a quote prior to a full application.

@Jacob L White -- if you're working multiple deals in different states, an independent mortgage consultant is a must.
They'll have an established network of lenders and will know which ones work in which markets and which programs are best suited for each particular deal. They should be able to quickly provide preliminary loan estimates for each deal you identify. They should already have lender contact info and the good ones will handle most of the lender communication and will track & report requirements and process milestones.
Someone who works for you; to help you find the best solution for each project.
If you reach out to a lender they will be able to tell you what you should expect. Tell them what you are looking to do. Entity owned or personal. Project scope (construction or not). Exit Strategy (refi to hold or sell). Regarding you personally. What is your experience? How is your credit looking? You'll be able to get a general ballpark. From there throw the general rates into an excel and you'll have the upper and lower limits of what to expect. Hope this helps!
@Jacob L White 1) you shouldnt need to fill out any application to obtain rate quotes for whatever scenario you want ...if a lender isnt willing to provide a detailed quote for what you need- move on the next option 2) Movement mortgage has locations in all states and is very strong in the SE reagion
