Based on what I've seen it the private lending market, there's an appetite among the PE funds for these types of loan products. 

People don’t want the truth- these areas are suppressed for a reason.

This is the number one thing suppressing the short term market now.

Go to the zoning dept and find out everything you can about dwelling units/acre, service accessibility or septic and well requirements if not, taxes, special ordinances, improvement districts or ability to float municipal bonds and their general appetite for development.  

With limited buildable land, high appetite for real estate from the locals and foreigners, and many new millionaires from start-up companies, appreciation is almost a guaranteed.

Start off by asking them questions of what they currently get in returns, what their risk appetite is, etc.

The banks only really have the one option they provide so if the risk doesn't fit their appetite then they will either decline to write or price themselves out of the market.  

During the GRC they about terminated/called my loan, but my 5 yr reset and review was about 6 months before they completely 'lost their appetite for commercial assets in this uncertain regulatory environment.'

If you are an appreciation investor with an appetite for nice suburbs it will take 20+ years.

The banks have quite a bit of variance between themselves - what they accept really depends on their risk appetite.
