Loan Lender Shopping - DMV Area
Hey! I’m a new investor currently working on building out my team. My realtor recommended a lender and after speaking with them, I’ve been pre approved with an interest rate of 6%. That seems a little high and I want to shop around to find a better rate. My fear is that shopping around will result in multiple credit runs and I don’t want my score to drop. Any advice on how to intelligently shop around?

For an investment property loan, 6% right now is not high at all, I would jump on it if its legitimate. @River Sava can quote you on another option, but itll likely be way higher coming from us
