I always viewed it as "who cares how much money I put down", I plan to pay them all of before I retire as part of my ultimate strategy anyways. 

The property, though is not beach front, nor does it has ocean view, is just a short drive from some of the best beaches in the west, which are great for surfing, snorkeling, SCUBA diving.
