So there are several things you can do. If you are already owning a home and you are considering moving up to a bigger home, you could turn your current home into a rental home. Purchasing a primary residence will have lower down payment requirements. But again that will only apply if you are looking to move up to a bigger home and turning your current home into a rental and of course you still have to qualify for the financing. If you are not looking to move into a bigger home and you are just looking to purchase an investment property you have to calculate a down payment of at least 20 %. Also you can not forget the closing cost. In the event the seller doesn’t provide closing cost you need to calculate another 2 to 3 % of closing cost. There might be some upgrades you want to make to the home after your purchased the home. Also you need to consider the holding cost.
