Hi @Tyler Lucas,
Welcome to the exciting world of real estate investing! What kind of lender are you looking for - ie conventional, hard money, etc? It never hurts to have multiple lenders in your back pocket that you trust, my brokerage has an in house hard money lender but I also have a few others from past deals as well. I have also dealt with other lenders that could not perform or had stipulations that inhibited the closing process.
One piece of advice I would suggest is not to get sucked into the points/interest as the sole reason you choose a lender. If you can see a prior HUD from a deal, ask for one. I can't tell you how many times I'll see a quote for low points and interest and then the lender tacks on additional fees that doubles the points on the loan. On the flip side, actually having low points and interest doesn't mean anything if the lender can't even perform on the loan.
Feel free to connect if you have any questions!
