Hi @Nathan Kawalerski, the short answer is yes--there are plenty of online mortgage originators and other online mortgage sites that allow you to quickly and easily enter informaton and get quotes from various lender sources. However, who you decide to use as a lender generally depends on what type of project you're doing (flips could lean more towards hard money; a buy-and-hold rental could be using a DSCR loan; and so on). It's never a bad idea to find a couple of local lenders in your area to build relationships with in addition to some of the other national or multi-state lenders so that you have all the bases covered for different investment/project types.
