Did you guys have an existing relationship with the HML?

It is always a good idea to shop around and find the firm that you think will foster a great, long-lasting relationship with.

I am going to talk with a loan officer that I have a good relationship with after I do another walk-through of the 4-plex tomorrow.

It's going to take a lot of time and effort in building relationships with the multifamily brokers. 

@Stefanos Axios I haven't been in the market for nearly as long as @Anthony Thompson or @Frank Patalano but we have been very active the last three years and from all the historical and current data we've seen, it's not a good time to get in unless you've somehow stumbled onto a screaming deal. 

I'm doing everything I can to learn in the meantime, analyzing deals, going over property financials,  building relationships etc. but I feel like nothing can substitute for really doing it. 

Underwrite off historical and not the last 5 years for rent and expense growth as the last 5-8 years are a bit flawed and are unlikely to hold through the life of your project.

Your time could be much better spent educating yourself and developing relationships with individuals in real estate, VS clipping coupons for three hours on a Sunday to save 40$.
