You really aren't that aligned if he's thinking this would be a source of steady income. 

You will have to dig a little right now and find a lender that has their own funding source... there are a few still lending!

A few ways to do this:Use a software such as list source, batch leads, deal machine, or lead sherpa to find homeowners contact info.I'm not sure which is best to use for cold calling, but I'm sure a small amount of additional research will bring you to your answer.After you reach out to these people, keep in mind that you will still need to make offers on their property, meaning you need to be able to estimate rehab costs as well as after repair value accurately.Hope this helps, and good luck
