I would like to get my first investment property before the end of the year. 

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment in Beacon Falls.

You can do a FHA streamline refi on an investment property, and the rate is the same as a primary.

Pretty typical rookie mistake from what I've learned since then.

We typically don't have trouble with getting 80% of your purchase reimbursed to you as long as the DSCR hits 1.00+.Here's a quick breakdown of the eligible loan amounts based on an all-cash investment strategy:• 0-6 Months (Delayed Purchase, no Rehab completed) - up to 80% of purchase price• 6+ Months (Cash-Out Refinance, no Rehab completed) - up to 75% of appraised value• 0-3 Months (Cash-out refi, Rehab completed) - 75% of appraised value [good rates]• 3-6 Months (Cash-out refi, Rehab completed) - 75% of appraised value [best rates]Happy to discuss your specific deal whenever you've got time to review.

Have read many books and attended seminars and dabbled, but finally ready to make my first investment.
