Does your rental property usually stand good for the loan?

[Jon Begley]

I am currently working on my second real estate deal and my first loan for an investment property. I'm working with a loan officer at a small bank that I have a good relationship with and have done things with in the past. The property is a six unit with great cash flow currently priced at $169,000. The bank I'm dealing with will only do a 20 yr fixed if they can have a $130,000 mortgage on my primary residence which is paid off. If I don't use my home the terms are 20 yr with a 5 yr lock at the same rate. Is this typical or should I start shopping around?
