While I would love to move my portfolio and I to Florida someday due to the excellent price to rent ratios there, until that time I may end up buying in Spokane, WA, which is about a 4 hour drive from me.

If you are doing several of these acquisition per year, in which case this would be considered your primary business model, I think you need to look for a portfolio lender.

The credit unions pay attention when they see this type of cash flowing through your accounts and this is how to kindle the relationship for portfolio lending.

Would love to meet/get referrals to RE investors, wholesalers, RE agents, portfolio lenders in the area.

A local lender suggested looking into a 'portfolio lender.' 

They may choose to portfolio and keep it in their bank but they might choose to sell it to another bank etc. the day after it closes or 2 years later.

I am looking to start working with investors as well as to begin laying the foundation to build my own portfolio of investment properties, whether flipping or holding for cash flow.If there's anything I can do for anyone here in the Portland metro area, don't hesitate to drop me a line.

Hello allI have a scenario to run by you and I know what most will say but I just want it to make sense as to why I would pass when my trigger finger keeps wanting to pull the trigger :)Portfolio of rentals for sale, 14 Duplex units and 1 Single Family in Timbuk (names have been changed to protect the innocent) yes they aren't in the greatest area which isn't good I know but they have all been upgraded new roofs etc. 90% occupied at moment asking 580k for all.

I'm looking at buying a couple more Rental properties in 2016 with the goal of growing my portfolio wealth. 

I do know of a few other portfolio lenders that lend on fix n flip houses in case you need more of those types of lenders.
