Maybe try to find someone like that who is just starting out and realizes that real estate is the golden goose over building their own law firm?  

Build and nurture those relationships. 

I'm doing a refi on a multi-family building right now with a lender I found here on the BiggerPockets Lender Finder - https://www.biggerpockets.com/business/finder/lenders They've been able to help me get a DSCR loan which others on this post have mentioned and they've been pretty quick should be able to close before the new year in less than 3 weeks from when I started the process!

You can even learn a lot from leads that don't book with you, if you build report and ask the prospect worthwhile questions.

The latter would create mortgage rates issues, the former will eliminate a lot of fake demand and some material real demand in the housing market that is bid side.Mortgage rates higher + build costs higher(less labor + tariffs)= Kill demand.

Build your portfolio as your knowledge and wealth increase. 

Quote from @Spencer Elliott: Long story short, land is on loan and I’m purchasing a manufactured lot as a temporary home/future ADU to my final build.

Reality is most of us who make it long term work our butts off in a W2, save as much as possible and build it over time -- When I see people want 10 properties in one year with no money down - I question how realistic that is, of course anything can be done but is that even the right play unless your sitting on $2-$3M in cash?

Purchase price: $220,000 Cash invested: $100 Sale price: $225,000 Wholesale: 2 build property to a Developer.
