KW is a very popular choice for new agents because of the company culture.

I think this is a calculation a lot of homeowners are making right now--especially if they have a low interest mortgage, equity, and their house will cashflow as a rental.The choice is a personal one of course, but I think your future self will thank you if you pull out some equity from your existing home with a HELOC for the downpayment on the next house and a cushion renting your current home, use a property manager as you have other things to do, and buy the next house and do the same thing again.

Even  if it’s a 30 year fixed DSCR that allows you to live in it the interest rate will make the “residential” loan a far better choice  Oh the other hand if it’s 5+ you’ll have to go commercial.

Hi Ken, I would say in the vast majority putting down 25% on an investment property is the safest way but there are ways to put a lower down payment and sometimes little to no money out of pocket. 

And is this a smart choice? 

With that being said, great choice looking at Columbus Ohio!

@Kaaren Hall with U Direct is also another great choice. 

So $4500 is a choice not an immutable fact.
