2Investment Property Loan Types
An investment loan on property is a loan for
non-owner occupied property. There are two main
classifications of investment property mortgages.
These classifications include commercial and
residential. A commercial property mortgage is
for a dwelling that contains 5 or more units
and/or is zoned as commercial. A residential
investment mortgage is for a dwelling that is one
to four units and is zoned residential.
Commercial and residential mortgages are two
completely different loan types and have
significantly different qualification standards.
The following is a basic description of each
mortgage type. Residential loan on
property Residential property investment
mortgages have similar qualification guidelines
as standard owner-occupied mortgages. Although,
they do have higher down payment and credit score
requirements. Below is a summary of the general
guidelines for residential investment mortgages.
3 Credit Score Requirement - The minimum credit
score requirement is typically 680 or above for
investment mortgages. Debt to Income Ratio -
Typically, the debt ratio limit for an investment
mortgage is 40 of the borrower's verifiable
income. Besides W2 income, the borrower's last 2
years tax returns will be needed to calculate the
income that can be used from other rental
properties or other sources of income. Down
Payment - Investment property mortgages require
at least 15 down, but the down payment
requirement increases with lower credit scores
and the greater the number of units in the
property. Income - Lenders typically will only
use rental income if the borrower has a two-year
history of owning rental properties. This is
usually documented via the tax returns and
schedules.
4Commercial loan on property Commercial loans
typically have higher rates, greater fees, and
shorter terms than residential mortgage. The two
most important factors for lenders on this loan
type include a positive cash-flow for the
property, and the borrower's past commercial
property management experience. Below is a
summary of the general guidelines for residential
investment mortgages. Credit Scores Requirement
- The minimum credit score requirement is
typically 720 to 740 for a commercial loan.
Down Payment - The minimum down payment for a
commercial mortgage is typically 30 or greater.
When refinancing, the maximum equity position is
usually 70 of the appraised value of the
property.
