Thank you for all the information. You guys give excellent advice!! I'm still shopping around. I'll update once I find something appealing.

Thanks everyone!! I figured as much. I'll keep calling around.

Would anyone happen to know if 7% the current going interest rate for investment properties financed through mortgage lenders /banks? I was told by a mortgage broker that's the best he give us with an 830 credit score?

Hello everyone,

My husband and I are new to both BP and real estate investments. As we navigate the road to our first investment property we've come into a bit of a dilemma.  We're unsure of the best way to finance our first investment.  My hope is someone here can enlighten us on which option makes sense financially. 

We have about $250,000 in equity in our primary home and a little more than $100,000 in savings. Initially we were just going to use some of our savings as the downpayment and take out a mortgage on the investment property and not touch the equity in our home. Recently a friend/mortgage broker told us it's best we use our equity to buy the investment property and not touch our savings. He further explained that if we purchased the investment property with cash we'd have no problem putting the property under our LLC refinancing it and paying our primary mortgage off.

I think it's best to use the equity. However, my husband has reservations about taking equity out of our primary home as he has worked hard doubling payments to make sure it's paid off before we retire he's very wary about taking any risks with our primary home.

I would really appreciate sound opinions and advice.

Thanks Crystal &
