William. 

congratulations on starting your re career.Once you finish your testing you must have picked a broker to work under to process your application.Keller Williams, Berkshire Hathaway are 2 excellent brokers to work for.

I am at Keller Williams Napa Valley. 

Dan Rochon has one at Keller Williams Kingstowne in Springfield on the 24th.Mihaela Amira has a great one for multi family investors downtown at the Berkshire Hathaway office in Eastern MarketThere's one for condo financing through Movement Mortgage at the Total Wine and More in Ballston (Arlington) that comes with a free wine tasting on 1/30Washington Capital Partners does one in Falls Church. 

I will more than likely hang my license under Keller Williams as I have found two good mentor students under that brokerage.I am currently living in what they call a “boutique market” and in a few years I would like to relocate to a bigger city where there’s potential for bigger and better opportunities in the industry.

@William Golden Do you have any advice on finding lenders@John LoManto Thank you SO much for the reference.
