Hi Donald, 

We have a program that is exactly what it sounds like you're looking for. No personal income required, qualification is based on current rent or even market rent for un-leased properties. We can do long term, fixed rate loans with as low as 5.75% interest rates and up to 75% LTV on cash out loans. If you'd like to talk more feel free to send me an email at [email protected].

I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi Riggies,

Like others have said there are a lot of questions to be answered, but I may be able to help you as well if you're still looking. We're more of a conventional lender, but service all of our own loans so we can combine the flexibility of hard money with longer terms and lower rates that you'd get at a bank, provided the conditions are right. Feel free to send me an email at [email protected] and we can talk more.

@Patrick Gomoljak It shouldn't be a problem to get a loan on the new house, then pay if off in a few months once the old one sells, provided your income can support qualifying for 2 mortgages at once (you'll have to qualify as if you planned on making both payments indefinitely, it won't matter to an underwriter that you plan to sell the old house soon). Almost no mortgages nowadays have pre-payment penalties (if someone tries to offer you one, run. They're almost definitely a shady company). So that means your cost of doing it this way would be limited to the closing costs of the new loan. The other option, (I couldn't tell you which is better without more information) would be to do a cash out refi of the old house in order to buy the new one in cash, then pay off this loan when the old house sells.

@Shadonna N 

Yes I believe so because it's under the FHA program which is owner occupied only for purchases.

@Cassidy Burns I know there are two programs specific to Baltimore City, but I can't remember the exact names right now. I'll look them up in our database when I get in to work tomorrow.

If you're trying to eliminate your rent have you considered buying a duplex/3-4plex to live in and rent out the other units at the same time? I don't know if they're available in your area, but this might be a good option. I also just wanted to let you know for the sake of your calculations, I'm a loan officer and (depending on your credit) even with a 15 year note, you'd be lucky to find a 4.25% mortgage on a regular sfr with no points nowadays, let alone a jumbo loan like this would be. Realistically you're probably looking at more like 6-6.5% with good-excellent credit.
