Recent Mortgage question
I recently purchased a condo for $32,500. This is a condo I am renting out. Bank asked for 20% down plus fee's. Rate is 6% for 5 years then adjustable after that on a 20 year loan. Just wondering if this is normal rates currently? Also do you always half to put 20% down? Other question I am thinking of paying off within the 5 years. Is paying off loan quickly a bad idea?
I am new to getting financing on properties as my other 2 properties I was lucky where the seller let me do payments to them directly on short 5 year loans at very reasonable interest rates.
