Definitely start shopping lenders to understand you options.

If you're comfortable with "normal" leverage, you can be shopping for something in the $900k range.

You will want to shop around those loan types can get expensive. 

Automatically reject a tight tank unless there's an extraordinary reason not to.If it looks like there's meat on the bone, go for a look and make a fast decision and write an offer and hopefully we get it accepted.The key is to get the offer submitted as fast as humanly possible, preferably before the open house - and set a *very* fast expiration on the offer so the seller / seller's agent doesn't have a lot of time to shop it around.For experienced flippers who want to forego the home inspection, great - eliminate the inspection contingency. 

If you are shopping for investment properties, then it is conventional to use multiple brokers. 

Shop around to local small banks.

Just like going shopping If you have no money to buy your window shopping.If you have the funds your actually buying.. 

This means your kind of loan and use them means you must shop around and be a successful borrower and you show that you are responsible to pay it back as fast as you can and/or make those minimum amounts on-time. 

Thanks for your assistance.Lavaud,I'll be the odd one out in this thread and suggest a Windows laptop, they tend to be cheaper and, because I build computers, I like the freedom/ability of being able to shop around / customize it to my specific liking.With that, it really depends on what you'll be doing with the laptop, ie: basic email, MS office, BP or video rendering / editing for your listings-walk through, future rehabs etc ?
