Some loan programs I've encountered have required at least 35% down, even with good credit.
I wouldn't mind purchasing at a higher interest rate and lower downpayment if I'm able to refinance later.
Bryan, can you provide details on the 90%/10% loan program, at a 3 year term? Or, send me a PM?
Thanks,
Steph

Thanks for the replies, everyone. I haven't had much luck yet.
If there are anyone can recommend a lender that can finance a fully rented, de-leaded cash cow in MA, let me know. A lot of local lenders I've been talking to are looking for really high downpayments. Thanks!

Hi!
Just curious if you guys had any experience with getting a loan through a conventional lender (or portfolio lender) for a multi-family. Would a lender consider the seller holding the note as your required 20% down?
If you have to have "skin in the game" would a lender accept this?
Thanks,
Steph

Thanks, Greg. I appreciate the info, very helpful.
I also heard in addition to the SSN, you need each tenant's driver's license number for the bank (I'm sure due to Patriot Act). Is that correct?

Thanks again, Bob.
I read the mass.gov website the same way - a separate bank account for each security deposit. Hmmm...confusing. :roll:

I can give them a try. How much down do they require?
The properties are in Bristol County, MA (Mansfield/Attleboro/Seekonk) areas.

Any luck with an investor friendly title company in MA? I am close to Franklin, any leads?
I got in touch with a possible company near Boston, but would prefer one closer to home.
Thanks,
Steph
