I am looking to build a portfolio of single and multifamily homes surrounding Dallas but with the unfortunate timing of being let go before doing my first deal, I will have trouble getting a traditional bank loan. 

Hey everyone, I know the Wichita forum isn't that active but I figured I would give it a shot. Now that I have a few properties in Wichita, I was looking for a local lender that could do small multi-families. To make ...

Freddie Small Balance i $1mill loan balance, 10 years fixed, 30 years amortization and could be 20%-25% down.if you cant get that then local bank could be an option, most offer 5 years balloon, but you can try to go for 7 years and 25 years Amort.

My wife and I can get the financing from the bank for one but getting financing for both looks to be a stretch.

I currently have 100K in the bank doing absolutely nothing and I want to get the best bang for my buck in terms of properties/investment.I figured that if I am able to invest 100K outside my state, I would be able to buy several properties and put them to work for me compared to just buying one here in NY. 

Now, we have enough for a DP, closing costs, and taxes so we aren't banking off a high appraisal.

Also $10k in savings bank cash.
