It goes like this:Conventional Loan-Cheaper,low interest rates,hard to qualify,requires good credit and decent DTI ratioHML-Very expensive,very high interest rates,high points but easier to qualify than traditional loans and some will roll costs into the loanPrivate Money Loan-More expensive than standard loans but cheaper than a HML,more beneficial but harder to find if you dont have rich friends or relatives,must be SEC compliant if marketing to find private lendersThere are other types of loans such as portfolio,bridge and mezzanine but those 3 are typical loans that investors use or at least try to use.
