Need Lending Info from the Savvy

[Nicole Jones]

I am looking to finance my 3rd purchase. Right now I am open to either a single family home or purchasing another multifamily (like my first 2). Some background- when I purchased the other 2 I had a bit more to put down than I do now. I also sort of blindly purchased without doing much number running. Thank god both purchases ended up being somewhat profitable but to be honest I really don't want to chunk as much cash into this purchase as I did on the last two. I am currently living in one of my duplexes and am willing to live in the new property.

My question is, I am submitting all my docs to a mortgage broker who my agent recommended but I am interested in checking out a few other options and getting pre-approved through a few different sources so that come game day I have options. Any recommendations for which exact or type of lenders to look into? Also, who to avoid? Thanks in advance.
