Is a 15% down for a duplex the standard?
Hi everybody! Looking to purchase my first property over this next year, ideally in Bellingham, WA. It's slim pickins over there right now but I'm patiently waiting for something to pop up. I've been reaching out to lenders in the area and trying to get an idea how much cash to close I would need. I've called quite a few and it seems most banks require a 15% down payment for specifically a MFR.
I wanted to reach out to the community to see what everyone else's experience with this was. I was hoping to put a 5% down on my first property but if this 15% is the standard, then I may have to start with a SFR. I appreciate any other advice or insight. Thank you in advance!
