Small banks/Lenders in Charleston, SC area for Buy & Holds

[John Carr]

Hi BP folks!

To all of my Charleston & South Carolina people out there - I am looking for a good community bank or credit union that is friendly to the real estate investor. Specifically I am looking for loans to do buy-and-hold deals on smaller multi-families (duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes), and was wondering if anyone has any experience and/or recommendations for places that loan on these. Down payments are not an issue...

Feel free to PM me if you'd like or comment below - but remember, no advertising or solicitation! :-)

Thanks in advance everyone!

I will second the recommendation from @Austin Watson

Zack Shaw works with several investors I know.  Good banker.  We met with him and I would work with him.  Just like  the Tidelands operation a little better.
