Conventional Financing questions
Okay I went today to the bank just to get an idea what I may borrow. I mentioned to the loan officer that it will be NON owner occupied. I told her my intentions of buying a duplex or SFR and renting out. I was told a minimum 25% down & ~6pts for all closing, attorney fees, etc. I also asked if I should buy in the name of a LLC she wasnt really clear, but basically they want the property to be under my name. I asked if later on I could transfer title of property into LLC she mentioned that the bank states in their contract that they would have to approve, and that there will be another fee for that (she didnt specify). I asked if I could buy fixer upper with private lender and then refi after repairs are made she said yes after 6 months seasoning and NO Cashout.
1. Are you guys buying under your name and then transferring title to an LLC later on?
2. Is it possible (or legit) to buy as a personal residence and rent out?
What are you guys doing?
