I did get a lot of BS pushback about talking to underwriter though.Next time I will prefer to deal with investor friendly lenders and rather pay a slightly higher rate then deal with incompetents of banks.

@Keionna Troupe - Hello - there are many ways to find Realtors' - on here is one way, because most of us are investment friendly - but you can always call your local offices and ask for one as well. 

Account Closed I'd say with those 2 books you are ready to move onto next steps which is: networking with investors in  your area, find an investory friendly agent, and start getting your financials into order. 

@James Dutcher  I haven't worked with that company so can't comment, but for me, friends and family are the only private lenders I work with. 

I also know a couple contractors/developers in Lexington that are very familiar with the zoning codes and build new construction homes frequently if you had questions or needed help from them.

These always have huge turnouts with friendly helpful people from beginner to pro.
