When I spoke with my "go to" broker, he warned my that it may be difficult to find a lender for an investment property because of the new FHFA guidelines.He did find a lender, but the interest rate on the 30 year note is 4% with nearly $1,000 in additional closing fees compared to what I usually pay.
