@Jonathan Blanco, I'm and investor and a licensed mortgage broker so I've been on both sides of this conversation.I would look for a lender that (1) listens to you and understands your strategy and needs (hint: it's not always money), (2) has experience working with clients executing your strategy and brings more to the table than just cash - be it advice, relationships, deal-team partners, etc., (3) gives you viable options and explains the pros and cons of each option and (4) you enjoy interacting with - this should be a relationship, not a transaction.Once you find a few lenders like this (and you should have relationships with more than one), then you can start comparing rates and fees.

Then you can start seeing other places just on the MLS when you get this strategy down and knowing what rough numbers will be, but it is always mandatory to get a full amount of rehab costs to get the GC into the property.

Good luck with the wholesaling strategy.

Diversify and leverage the best strategy based on the specific deal.

My former experience has been with LTR and I'm currently focused on STR in E TN but interested in learning other useful strategies and expanding markets in later deals. 

Are you adjusting your strategy as rents decline?

The trick is to know the market and have a solid strategy for your approach.
