Com loan VS Res loan

John Nail
Posted

From my understanding, a com loan is used with 5 units or more, but at what percentage would the bank need or require for down payment? I see a 35 Unit in my area but only have 2k on hand.

Do dream big! And start with steps that will propel you forward in the direction of your dreams. Yes, if you don't own a home, now would be a great time to buy one. Or a duplex. Get yourself a 5% fixed FHA mortgage with very little down. Save, save, save your money and build, build, build your credit.
