    To my understanding, the only way to get that rate would require for the prospective property to be owner occupied.

    The only way I've seen that possible is if you got the property at a big discount; are rehabbing to fix and flip; and willing to use hard money.

    Some hard money guys will do up to 90% of the purchase if you're buying at 60 to 65% of the ARV (After Repair Value). So if you buy something at $100k, and it will be worth about $200k after you put rehab money into it, you're at 50% ARV. Some of the hard money guys will require 10, 15, 20% "skin in the game" as long as you show you have the reserves.

    However, on buy and hold, which I suspect you're more interested in, I just don't think that exists with 10% down. If you qualify, you can get investor property financing on your third property from banks at 85%ltv (15% down) for SFR, and 75% (25% down) for 2 to 4 units.

    Hope this helps
