We are having out of pocket expenses with typical 75% ltv investment loan (Its a refi of HML).Are there potfolio lenders in the washington- seattle-tacoma area that do 80% ltv?

I know this is going to ultimately come down to personal preference and risk tolerance but I'm curious what you all have to say.I'm refinancing my house and am hoping to pull out about 40 k. now, in my area in Tacoma wa there are definitely homes for under 200k and alot of them are in areas i see as high growth potential areas over the long term but currently are C- neighborhoods, if not worse.

I have put in an offer on a triplex in South Tacoma, awaiting a response.

I know this is an old post, but I am looking for referrals for some of the same professionals in the Seattle-Tacoma area.

@Elizabeth Wilson, this will not be much of a market mover if any at all.  

Cash City LLC is looking to hire a contractor in the Tacoma, Washington area. 

Thank you,AbramBrown and Brown of Tacoma

I see from your profile that you are from Tacoma.

You could keep doing this, becoming a serial mover, and keep lower down-payments and owner occupied rates, for much of a military career.  

I'm looking to get involved in REI in the Seattle / Tacoma area.
