@Scott Wolf thanks for the info, and good luck with the approval?

Do you think banks will take any less than 20% down for non-owner occupied? Or perhaps it will come with higher rates?

Interested in knowing if any investors in NY are around.. how are you financing if not planning on living in the property?

Any lenders you would recommend and how much higher are the rates are you seeing?

Are you needing 20% down?

Thanks!

@Jack B. I need to look this up, but do you have to give a reason for not accepting tenants based on anything other than their kids? Would saying that you don't like their kids violate fair housing laws or is it ok to say... Because of their kids, you don't think they will make good tenants? I know in this case, you went with their credit score.

@Joe Splitrock yikes, I had no idea cats could be worse than dogs.. and I have both!

Hi everyone,

I'm wondering what you landlords are deciding when it comes to the pets vs. no pets policy, and why you decided on it? I'm looking into buying a long term multifamily house with 2-3 units as my first investment. The stock of properties here are 1880s to 1930s.

If you allow pets, are you collecting additional pet fees monthly? If so, how much would be reasonable?

There's also an option for pet deposit fees.

Have you seen property damage with pets?

Thanks!!
