Where do investors usually get their loans?

[Eric Kristt]

Hello everyone, question. Where do investors typically go (both novice and experienced) to secure financing for an investment property(residential)? Banks, morgage companies and hard lenders are the obvious, but are there companies outside those businesses that investors use? I live in Orlando and work with a private hard lender company and am trying to network and establish some relationships with the more common institutes that borrowers go to... Thank you for the help!
