I’m especially grateful for your willingness to lend me some of your knowledge along the way.

As for SFR a pre approval letter is of value because most institutional lenders will close the loan with the main qualification being the buyer himself, as long as the property appraises for a certain value.Loans secured by commercial real estate are much more dependent on the property itself and all its characteristics, not just the appraised value.  

I’ve heard from others it is still a ough thing to get lending on.The suggested way that bankers have given me is to have the end buyer apply for the loan and we build the house for them.

Based on what you wrote here, I think the lesson should have been to not chase a specific number of properties, rather chase a specific number of dollars.The lesson was to build some sort of active income within real estate through lending, which I'm currently doing, rather than chasing ownership of rental properties. 

REI Nation has special lending partners who know how to close these deals fast—we closed in 29 days.

You'll need some sort of active income, whether it's wholesale, fix and flip or lending.
