Financing for 4-unit owner occupied purchase as my 2nd property ?
Dear Fellow Bigger pockets real estate pros,
We (me & my wife) own a 4-plex in Campbell,CA. We live in one unit and rent the other three.
We've been living there for the last 1.5 years.
Now we're planning to buy next 4-plex as owner occupied property, either with bigger sqft (3bd/2ba..etc) owner unit or the 4-plex i.e closer to our work location.
The price that we're looking at is ~1.5M$ - 2M$ in Bay area.
What is the minimum downpayment percentage that we need to bring to the table to close the deal ?
Do you suggest any lenders/banks that can do with <20% (~15% would be great) down payment for owner occupied 4-plex? We both work and have strong incomes. Earlier 4-plex is completely taken care with the 3-unit rents and we live rent-free.
Highly appreciate your suggestions for bringing our 2nd purchase into reality.
Thank you & Regards,
Venky

Hold on. I have to check the forum rules before I give his info. I think they may have rules about putting links and contact info before 10 posts. Sit tight......Or, perhaps a moderator that sees this can enlighten me.
