What are Investment Loans

Delve into the realm of real estate investing with a comprehensive overview of investment property loans, a pivotal tool for transforming property aspirations into income-generating opportunities.

Investment property loans, offered by Ameritrust Mortgage, are specialized financial products tailored for acquiring properties intended for income generation rather than personal residence. These properties encompass single-family homes, condos, apartment buildings, and commercial spaces. Below is an in-depth breakdown provided by Ameritrust Mortgage of investment property loans, encompassing their features, prerequisites, and critical considerations:

Higher Interest Rates

Due to the perceived higher risk, interest rates for these loans typically exceed those for primary residence mortgages.

image

Larger Down Payments

Borrowers are typically required to provide down payments of 20% to 30%, a higher percentage than primary residences.

image

Strict Credit Requirements

Lenders mandate a good to excellent credit score for approval, reflecting the heightened financial risk involved.

image

Debt-to-Income Ratio (DTI)

A DTI ratio demonstrating the ability to manage additional debt is crucial, with lenders typically preferring a DTI lower than 45%.

Consideration of Rental Income

Lenders may factor potential rental income into loan eligibility calculations, contingent upon a history of property management or existing rental agreements.

Loan Types

Different Types of Investment Property Loans?

There are several types of investment property loans available in the market, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Some of the most common types of investment property loans are:

Conventional Mortgages

    Offered by traditional lenders, these loans come with stringent requirements due to the property's non-owner-occupied status.

    Government-Backed Loans

      While primarily for primary residences, select programs such as FHA offer options for multi-unit properties if the borrower commits to residing in one of the units.

      Hard Money Loans

        Short-term, high-interest loans from private investors or companies, suitable for properties necessitating renovation before renting or resale.

        Home Equity Loans

          Borrowers can tap into equity from their current home to finance the purchase of an investment property.

          Cash-Out Refinancing Offers Homeownerships the Opportunity to tap into their Home’s Equity while Securing a new Mortgage with Potentially better Terms.

          Let’s explain the benefits and advantages of Cash-Out Refinancing & how it could be the financial you are searching for.
