I am wondering what the <a href="http://www.zillow.com/directory/lenders/">lender</a> will look for as far as qualifications, requirements, down paymnts, etc? Also, is the rate on an investment property usually higher than a <a href="http://www.zillow.com/mortgage/">loan</a> for promary residence?<br/><br/>I already have a 30yr fixed on my home. I have very good credit (730+), a great job with good income, and have paid all bills on time since I can remember. No bankruptcies or repo's. I would like to pick up a few rentals in the $750-$100K range, and would like to put as little as possible down assuming that I will be getting each property at roughly 70% of value/appraisal.<br/><br/>&nbsp;&nbsp; Any ideas on where to start or the best, most porductive way to have finances in order before looking, and suggestions on what I can expect in "reality".

Many of my searches don't pull up listings that I know are there and they don't properly target the criteria I enter. For instance I want to look at houses in Council Bluffs IA, the search brings up listings in NE&amp;NC. I can't look at houses from $150,000 to $170,000. I have to look at listings from $150,000 to $350,000. I tried finding a $299,000 house that I know is there and it did not show up in the search.<br/><br \><br \>0 replies Sat, 07 Mar 2009 18:55:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/Rudimentary-Search-Capabilities-on-Zillow/207795/ 2009-03-07T18:55:00Z does zillow provide an estimated value for this home http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/does-zillow-provide-an-estimated-value-for-this-home/201002/ 1 reply Wed, 18 Feb 2009 23:49:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/does-zillow-provide-an-estimated-value-for-this-home/201002/ 2009-02-18T23:49:00Z Should I use the VA loan if I am able to put down 20% on a home purchase? http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/Should-I-use-the-VA-loan-if-I-am-able-to-put-down-20-on-a-home-purchase/188240/ 3 replies Wed, 14 Jan 2009 06:51:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/Should-I-use-the-VA-loan-if-I-am-able-to-put-down-20-on-a-home-purchase/188240/ 2009-01-14T06:51:00Z
