Down Payment Minimum for First-Time Home Buyer of Rental Property

David Martin
Posted

Hello!

I'm currently renting an apartment and have been considering purchasing an investment property to Airbnb. I have zero debt and don't own a home -- what is the minimum down payment I can put on a single unit investment property? I've seen 15% in a few places, given I have a good DTI ratio and high credit, but I'm curious if I could go as low as 10% since this would be my first mortgage.

Thanks in advance!
