down payment required for short term rental investment
Hey y'all.... looking to purchase a condo property for short term rental in a resort town. I'm thinking the purchase price would be around $400k and will finance via a 30 year mortgage. Since this would't be a jumbo loan, what type of down payment would I need? I'm hoping we could get away with 10%? Is this unrealistic?
Also, what type of interest rate should I expect. We good credit and so that shouldn't be a problem. Question is for a "second home" or "investment", what should I expect approximately? I'm thinking 6-7% and that is what I am plugging into my analysis spreadsheets. Am I off here?
Thanks!
Sean
