ISO Mortgage lender

[Tyler Quick]

Good afternoon all, I’m somewhere in the beginning of my real estate journey, I’m looking to purchase a second property and build my portfolio by using the ”stack” method at the very least acquiring a property every year or 2 depending on what the loan allows (owner-occupied loans), I’m looking for a mortgage lender who works the southern Indiana region and also understands my plan and goals, should I be focused on finding a good agent who will then have a lender or should I find a good lender who will then have a agent ?
