How do I finance an investment property?

By Bob Millaway July 26, 2026

Short Answer

Investment property financing differs from owner-occupied mortgages. Lenders typically require 15% to 25% down for single-family rentals and 20% to 30% for multi-family properties. Interest rates are usually higher, and you will need strong credit (typically 680+) and adequate cash reserves. Options include conventional investment loans, portfolio loans from local banks, and tapping home equity from your primary residence. Full answer page coming soon.
