Avoid this "Lender"
Hello Everyone, long story short. I was approached by a lender through Linkedin.
A "private lender" Named Connie Caywood. Profile says employed by Killian Financials ect.
We were in the middle of a Deal when she sent me proof of funds letter ect and an application from Killian Financials...
The letter looked over the top and fake and did not fit the template for a proof of funds letter from a bank.
She had reached out to me because of my activity on BP, but is not a BP member from what i can find.
Just wanted to share and make everyone aware! Hope everyone is doing well and keep safe!

Best place to find HML is in person, at your local REIA meetup or real estate related convention or w/e. I get a ton of telephonic solicitations from folks claiming to be HML, I just block the number and move on.
