In most areas around here they require all wires to be in conduit even in residential work so it wouldn't be so bad but I'd still trade a couple AC units over that any day.

The wholesaler isn't buying anything but being a conduit between the end buyer and the seller.Sounds like you need to spend money and develop your own database and mailers to deal directly with sellers.More than anything the number one mistake people wholesaling make is trying to make themselves out to be a real purchaser to develop a relationship with a broker/agent or even an owner.

@Crystal Townley conduit lenders (big banks, mortgage brokers, etc.) generally will not touch Reverse 1031 Exchange transactions because their objective is to make loans, package them, and sell them off to investor pools.

CMBS: according to my mortgage broker, to get access to the best debt terms right now, I'd need a facility that has been stabilized for 2 yrs (85% occupied) - then, for 30-35% down, I could get the 10/30, 4% terms (with some interest-only yrs on the front) that are available through life companies and conduit lenders right now.

You can do a bank search here by city, state, zip code etc.https://research.fdic.gov/bankfind/You can also call credit unions as some have really good programs for commercial right now.There are non-bank lending sources as well depending on the deal size such as insurance companies, conduit, CMBS, hedge fund, ultra high net worth lenders, etc.The question becomes do you want to do this yourself and not pay a mortgage broker generally a 1% fee of the loan amount at closing but spend a lot of time doing it or call up some well connected local commercial mortgage brokers who should find a good loan at a good rate.Often times lenders will give better rates to mortgage brokers as they are repeat business for the bank versus a one off type transaction if you call them directly.

You can't just add an outlet here and there where needed, most electricians will want to stick to code on that too which can mean adding outlets on exterior brick walls with conduit since they can only be so far apart.

Local and regional banks simply do not carry that many bad loans, they are not big enough and didn't originate like the Commercial (Conduit) Lenders that went belly up.
