     speaking with them does not get you a better deal. Credit score and downpayment get you the best deal. 

    Questions are what type of loan are you targeting? You want a DSCR or an investment loan from a traditional bank. If a DSCR then questions are prepayment penalties and other terms of the loan so you understand what you are getting into.
