1) 20% down will allow you to do a conventional investment loan, but you will have to either:- Qualify with the new payment + your current payment- Lease the property out, allowing the lender to use 75% of the monthly rent to offset the mortgage (confirm with a lender).2) You could also do a DSR 20% down loan, but the interest rate will be much higher than conforming rates.3) If less than 20% down, you could:- Do a 10% 2nd home loan as long as the new property is at least 50 miles from your current home or near a qualifying vacation spot (confirm with a lender).- Do a 5% down conventional mortgage if you plan to rent out current home and live in the new one for at least 12 months.
