I've heard that the down payment percentages for investment properties can be higher compared to primary residences.Specifically, I'm looking for insights on:The typical down payment percentages required by conventional lenders for investment properties.Any differences in requirements for single-family homes versus multi-unit properties.Experiences with different lenders and any recommendations for those offering favorable terms for investment properties.Any tips for negotiating better terms or finding lenders with more flexible down payment options.For context, this will be my second property, and I have a good credit score and a stable income.
