Some need to start with sips from a good book with all devices off. 

For example AT&T wrote off a massive cell phone bill for me - it was something like $1,200.

Private lenders can be friends, relatives, co-workers, other investors or anyone you developed a relationship with.If you inbox me, I would be happy to chat with you and pass my cell # to you and give you REAL numbers on multiple properties and tell you exactly how we do it.

I literally have doctors calling me from maintenance rooms on their cell phones or driving to work as that is the only time they have to talk.

At some point all tenants needs credit and if they aren't paying their rent then then they will feel it when they try and get a new cell phone/car. 

It's so middle of nowhere there isn't squat for cell service or wifi, like anywhere.

This becomes critical as the 'web' is already at 40% mobile devices.

They don't value smartphones (or cell phones hardly) or being in touch constantly.  

You will also want a lender who has more than two brain cells who can handle the idea that you are purchasing a new primary and keeping your old one as an investment.

Don't forget to track and deduct your mileage (including trips to your remodel store of choice, assuming you own a car that you use(d) to conduct business with), deduct a portion of your cell phone (assuming you conduct business on your phone) and deduct a home office expense (assuming you conduct your property management out of a room in your house) and consult a tax accountant to see what other tax write offs you should be able to have.
