Boston - Advice on mortgage types for owner occupied 2-4 family

Brian C Kelleher

Posted

Hi All,

I am looking to buy an owner occupied 2-4 family in the East Boston/Chelsea area this spring with a 5-10% down payment. I already own a 2 family house in the Boston area so this would not be first time home buyer. 


What are some of the most advantageous loan types you've heard of for this? I am looking at FHA and the new Fannie Mae 5% down payment program, but someone mentioned a 5% down payment program with Cambridge Savings Bank that had no PMI. Do you know anything about this or any other low down payment programs with no PMI? How about any grants available for a second time owner occupant home buyer? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Brian
