Need local banks in Lehigh Valley area
Hi all, we are looking into doing BRRRR in Lehigh Valley area (mostly likely Easton), and one piece of advice we got is that we should line up a local bank before going into projects. We heard that a credit union or community bank is more likely to work with investors as they are more flexible. We are wondering if you had any recommendations? Thank you in advance!

Hi @Stephen Kunen I was told Embassy Bank from other investors in the area is easy to work with. I just put a call to them on Friday to talk about a refinance of my properties. I am waiting on them to contact me, we will see how it goes.
