Hey guys, I'm looking for a mortgage company so far I looked at going to a big bank like Bank of America and Wells Fargo but what about all these online, any recommendations would help I'm located in New York! I'm looking to buy a 3 family home for 140k but most lenders want 25-30 I don't want to put so much down because I want to have money left over to pay the mortgage for a year just in case of vacancies. I get a lot of people saying I should do an fha loan but I don't want to live there or change my address. If anyone knows good banks or lenders please let me know Thank you guys

You need to either find an owner financed property for the loan with some down OR find a lender that will hold a 75% first and allow  an owner finance  10% to 15% second.

You are not going to get a conventional lender to go 90%ltv on a loan for first position. Owner stops paying mortgage, property falls into disrepair, lender forecloses and property is now worth less than the 90% the lender loaned out on.

That is why you are seeing 25 to 30% down for investor owned property.
