Summer Child, ask your lender about a "family opportunity mortgage." You should be able to get 2nd home rates and reasonable down payment

One would have to wonder the exact consequences retired individuals receiving Medicare would have for gaining ownership. A client of mine who was doing something very similar for his mother did not want her to be put on title because it would reduce her Medicare benefits to have ownership in the property.

That is a good point. Of course without any details one can only make suggestions.

Unless you go to a small community bank that holds their loans the minimum down payment for investment property is 20%. No mortgage insurance ocmpany is insuring investment property thus the 20% down payment minimum.

I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere. I was wondereing if there are loans available for a condo in a complex with a high foreclosure rate and or low owner occupancy? These problems seems to create a cash only situation.

Hey as you are looking for a Property Loan with minimum down payment, check out the Investment Property Loan Plan by DBS, which comes with lowest rates of 4.25% p.a. & upto 100% finance. You can also try for DBS AssetLine that gives easy access to more cash, more savings & you can pay as you use. It's the best option to pursue your dreams with financial freedom.
