I would also add that investors are often interested in Blanket loans because they mistakenly think it will save significant closing costs, but they do not as you will still need four title polices and appraisals etc. and you will get far worse financing terms on the loan and have a lot less flexibility down the road to refi and sell properties.  

There is a road leading to 4 ranch properties and ours is the 2nd property from the main gate.

Leave your contact info with them in case they change their mind down the road.

,I think it is a great idea to connect with the lender who may refinance down the road so you know what the terms look like.
