Berkadia is #1 Freddie Mac Optigo, #3 Fannie Mae DUS, and #3 HUD/FHA multifamily lender in the country as of YE 2022, and my team originated ~$325,000,000 in agency loan volume last year.Lately I’ve noticed many of you asking about multifamily financing options, and thought this would be an opportunity to host an AMA regarding Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae agency multifamily financing, an area in which I specialize.

One of the most important skills you didn't mention is networking, which you are obviously doing well at too.I'd recommend connecting 1:1 (zoom, coffee. lunch, etc.) with a couple from the BP Chicago community or better yet check out some of the local meetups: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521-real-estate-events-...Make friends with the meetup hosts...they will often know whos who and can help you make the right connections.Regarding your license, I think it's a great idea if you have the time and are going at it with the right intentions.
