I have been practicing anylazing multifamily residential property in Austin TX, I would plan to use a 3.5% down payment, which I noticed brings "mortgage insurance " as another expense, does anybody have experience with this,? it seems that mortgage insurance can make a big difference if the deals will positively cash flow.

I understand that living in the property for your first deal helps the bank give you a loan easier for your first deal, I was wondering if anybody has experience just, going straight into buying a multi family residential property right off that bat without living it and renting all the units out, the reason I ask this is that, I live in Austin TX and work full time there, the multifamily prices are pretty expensive, so I was wo dering about buying in Kyle or San Marco's, maybe get a cheaper multi family unit there and treat as a separate project. anybody got any pointers? thanks!
