I am getting ready to purchase my first rental property in Oklahoma City, OK and I’m looking at an home that is priced under $80,000.I plan to put 25% down to get the best rate.I’m from California and haven’t run into this before... but it seems like there are lending minimums and a conventional loan of $60,000 isn’t something I’m finding easily.I could likely get a hard money loan or get a HELOC on my primary residence and purchase the home with cash... but I don’t like these options because the interest rates are higher than a Conventional loan.Besides hard money or a HELOC, are there any suggestions on how to get this smaller loan at a reasonable rate?
