Their clear incentive is to bet on falling interest rates between now and debt maturity.A small handful of owners are forced to sell due to a looming balloon payment that a refi won't cover, but you're not going to find one of those by driving the market when any commercial broker can just look up properties on that basis and start making calls. 

You're best bet is to call a few brokers local to the area and see what they can come up with.It's definitely going to be a surplus or excess carrier that will do it and the premiums will be high. 

If I were a betting man the company is folding up and this dutch character is out there doing the guru circuit as only source of $ and idiots will pay for training from someone like this.  

The quicker you can take action on the high dollar value decsions the quicker you will be able to grow.For sure take the time to setup the right foundation, but keeping it simple and easy when you are getting going is a safe bet!

Your best bet would be to find a portfolio lender whose niche aligns with your investment strategy.

This gives much better diversification protection across geographies, asset types, strategies, investment subclasses etc. versus putting all the eggs into one basket.The downside is that it's not for everyone, and a person has to be comfortable with turning over control to someone else.

It’s great to hear your perspective on appreciation versus cash flow—it’s something I’ll keep in mind as I refine my strategy.You mentioned local meetups in Northern New Jersey—do you (or anyone here) know of any good ones closer to Somerset or Middlesex counties?

If we face any headwinds, liquid investments go first so probably crypto but then you bet equities will get pressed.

In my opinion, that is a riskier bet because you have to have a big pile of cash for contingencies.  

It isn't impossible but as @Jimmy Lieu mentioned, there is a steep learning curve.Depending on your liquidity, out-of-state buy & hold rentals could be your best bet if NYC investing is out of the picture.
