If you have bad credit an FHA 3.5% down loan can be a good option.

From house hackers to traditional investors, the financing piece of 4 units and below is widely appealing.

In FL, you may not have options on the Wind.  

This would be for an investment property not a lease with an option to buy.Would it just be through agents, if it is mentioned in the listing etc... or is there another way to find these kinds of properties?

We are exploring all options and researching what we think the next move should be.

But you always have the option of chaning it or doing it yourself. 

thx experts There are certainly a lot of factors that go into the decision - keep in mind to there are multiple options with no prepayment penalty, so while there will be costs associated with the refinance - a no-prepay-penalty loan to purchase (at low leverage) can make a lot of sense as you can refinance later when rates inevitably come down, but don't have to time/guess when that is

Like what @Adam Widder said check with your rep and see if there are other pricing options.

I am from North NJ so very expensive locally and not sure what type of investment to get into out of all the options.
