List of questions for an investor to ask a lender?

[John Anderson]

Hi all,

I'm a small-time real estate investor (4 properties, 8 units to-date) looking for a solid lender to build a relationship with.

Currently, I'm only looking at conventional lenders (trying to get up to the ten investment properties that Fannie/Freddie allow me to have). 

I'm trying to come up with a list of good questions to ask, but would love to leverage the knowledge of the BP community. I've listed a few "obvious" questions below, but feel free to add anything you might believe to be helpful!!

1. Rates

2. Closing costs

3. Time to Close

4. Minimum Loan Amount
