Lenders that require less than 25%, any suggestions?
Looking to finance some deals and I'm looking for small but good and reputable lenders who would possibly work with less than 25% down - looking for somewhere in the range of 5% - 20% range and lends in Chicago. I'd look at a private lender as well if the terms were good. Looking to borrow $75k to $125k depending on terms. Any suggestions for lenders you guys have worked with or know about? I'm trying to build me list of good lenders to choose from as I start building my portfolio. Thanks in advance for your input. :)

@Chris Mason Thanks for this. This means that really any lending institution can offer 15% if they offer Fannie products. However it would be up the the individual lending institutions policy on whether or not they will require 25% or not, is that correct? I apologize in advance if this is a dumb question.
