We actually are lucky enough to have found private investors over the years. Some will do short term loans that allow us to buy, rehab then refi. I always suggest starting with friends and family and even ask them if they know anyone who might be interested. When the market was slower we even worked directly with the REO bank for the properties and soem of them would do portfolio loans on their own assets.
