Quote from @Stephanie Yang:

Hi all - I'm purchasing single family rentals in Alabama and Louisiana for $50-70k and having trouble finding conventional and private lenders willing to lend below 75k threshold. What options do I have? Anyone know of lenders with a lower minimum threshold? 


 Hi Stephanie:

Our minimum loan amount is $55,000.

Hi all!
I'm a new investor, I have done a ton of research and starting to look into deals at the moment and finally feel like I am ready to dip my feet in. I am primarily looking in the Cleveland, Canton, Akron, etc Ohio areas for investment properties. One question which I am still dealing with is the choosing between a the varying loans. I will be primarily looking at multi-family(duplex) houses and recently got pre-approved for a 25% down payment for a multi-family and a fha for 3.5% down.
However, this is where my problem arises so obviously I have to live at the property for FHA however I have no intention of moving out my current home. I have around 50k saved up, therefore I should be ok with the 25% down payment but my biggest concern is that I won't be able to expand as fast with 3.5% down payment vs putting 25% down. I would have less liquid cash, therefore preventing me from investing in another property at a faster rate.
Do you guys think I should go with the 25% down payment for a mulit-family(duplex), also are there any other options between 3.5%-25% I should know about concerning loans. 

Hi Stephan:

There are several options for you to put less than 20% down.  Most investor loan programs only require 15%-20% down.  
Are there options for 20% for multi-family? I thought multi-family was always 25%
Yes, 20% is the minimum down payment on a multi family property on a DSCR loan.  A conventional loan would require 25%.

Hi Karin:

Your experience managing rentals in Canada would be considered and you should be able to qualify for a DSCR loan. You can probably borrow up to 75% of the purchase price. If one lender cant help, that doesn't mean nobody else can. Each lender will have their own overlays, so definitely talk to a few different brokers/lenders to be sure you find the right fit.

Hi Chris:

For a conventional loan, usually the DTI can go up to 50% FHA loans allow the DTI to be as high as 56%. There are also loan programs that do not calculate DTI ratio and the approval is based off of credit score, down payment, and assets. These loans typically require 15%-20% down, and are great options for investors or anyone else who is self employed.

Hi Jordi:

I can help answer any questions you have about DSCR loans. We work with a lot of out of state investors like yourself. Let me know how I can help.

Quote from @Christopher Conforti:

I am an agent in New Jersey and its is a VERY tough market to compete in for investing in Multi-Family homes. I am looking to venture out of state and would like more insight on what areas I should be focusing on in any of these particular states. I have enough capital to allocate 25% for down payments ( most likely on 2-3 properties). I'm experienced an knowledgeable in my market and would do some more research on rents in the area. I would also be open to any real estate agent, contractor, property management, lawyer and inspector suggestions. Lets chat and connect. Thank you for your time reading and I look forward to your responses!

Hi Chris:

If you want to discuss options of putting less than 25% down, let me know.  There a programs available that only require 20% down on 1-8 unit investment properties.

Quote from @Kyle Hiester:

Hey All! I have an investment property under a LLC with a few other individuals and was wondering if that will disqualify me from using an FHA loan (if needed) down the road once I look at buying my personal home. I didn't think so, but I could definitely be wrong. Thank you in advance for your thoughts!

Hi Kyle:

Owning a rental property under an LLC will not disqualify you from using an FHA loan to buy a primary residence. As long as you plan on the loan and deed being in your name, not the LLC, you should be OK.
