Find a deal or fina a PML?

[Justin Young]

Aloha BP!

My partner and I are eager to get started but we have limited funds and we'd like to use private money (if we can find any lenders) to fund these deals but then how do we prove that we are worth lending to without any deals? Do we find the deal and the money finds us (I've read that a few times here)? Or do we try to build relationships with possible PMLs to keep in our back pockets for the moment we do actually need them? Thanks in advance. ALOHA!
