Can anyone finance a rental 4-family at 10% down?

I'm trying to sell a couple of smaller rental properties and although I've had some interest, no-one seams to be able to get financing. This could really push already low prices much lower.

In most cases they will need 20% down if they plan on living in one of the units.

If it will be investment property they will need 25% down.

I have a client that has 30+%  down. Every property that he is interested in there are not enough comps within the last 90 days that are within a 5 mile radius.

If you can't come up with comps, no loan. Right now, I'm finding the lack of sufficent comps a big problem with 3 to 4 unit properties..... Happy funding, Rudi Hofmann

I would check with a local bank like Waukesha state bank or Greatmidwest bank. I have contacts at both.

If they are purchasing with the intention of occuping one of the units they should be ok. There cannot be more then 4 units however.
If they are purchasing property as an investment then NO. Most lenders are between 50% - 70% LTV.
Good Luck
