Investment Property Loan Options

Investment properties are a great way to generate passive income. But when it comes to investment property loans, they often require a larger down payment, higher credit score, and greater liquid reserve than loans for primary residences.

In Colorado, there are various types of investment property loan options available such as FHA, Conventional, non-QM and commercial loan options. Depending on the lender, you may also be required to have mortgage reserves or savings to cover at least six months of mortgage payments for all accumulated mortgage debt.

If you are considering investing in Colorado real estate, make sure you understand the different investment property loan options available such as DSCR second liens and their associated requirements before taking the plunge.
