So you’d have maybe $335k in equity left and a loan for $665k. 

@Tom Stevenson why not HELOC as small as possible loan on your rental to buy your next rental?

However, this depends on your lender's specific loan terms, as some treat LLC transfers differently.

Hey Nicholas,As Jason said, I think the 5% down Fannie Mae multi-family loan will be your best option for financing.

.: @Robin Simon I’m looking to put at least 5% down in a loan and use a larger portion of my capital to buy down the interest rate to take off a couple of points.

You would be building equity and paying down the loan over time.

VA loan, I only put around 5% down.

@Spenser HardingDon't take a hard money loan on something intended to be a rental.

We're in sunny Florida, buyers want the loan paid off and there is a $0 increase in home value. 

Hello BP Community,As is very common I have friends who purchase their rental houses under their own name in order to get lower interest rate loans with better terms and also cheaper landlord insurance, and then they transfer the title into their LLC after closing.
