If you are trying to get referrals to a private money lender, you need to provide the details of your sale.  

I'm currently considering taking action on recruiting as many private money partners as humanely possible for my RE deals and have thought up taking this route: executing Calling up a couple local financial advisors and private wealth advisors(since these are middle man connections to money) and pitching them my private lending opportunities in which I want advisors to present it to their clients and whichever client wants to do deals with me, I'll have them available for funding my deals and I'll pay a "referral fee" to the advisor for his/her help.

I also use private lenders to purchase property.Seller financing works best when the seller owns outright with no mortgage.

Would appreciate any advise on how to locate and qualify private investors and present "qualified".Thanks and appreciate any and all direction.

When you call (it probably won't be advertised on their website), you want to ask if they do Portfolio Loans or Non-Warrantable Loans.You may also be able to find Private Money that will do this as well.

With banks in turmoil in 2009, it prompted a surge in private money lending from 2009 to 2015.

My name is John O’Leary, and even though I have had a BiggerPockets account for a little over a year, I have only started being active on the site recently.I got into real estate about two and a half years ago working for a private moneylender in Orlando, FL.

Are MLS okay or should I be looking for more private brokers. 

You get on title and you can't resell it and you can't fix it because you haven't got a plan B with Hardmoney or private lender money or JV money.
