Buying a rental?
These are averages for homes people live in. Lenders price investment properties higher, so KZD underwrites rentals at the 30-year average plus 0.5 points: 7.87% today. You can change the rate on any analysis.
These are national benchmarks, not offers of credit. The rate you are quoted depends on your credit, down payment, loan size, property type, points and lender, and can differ materially. KZD Realty is not a lender or a mortgage broker and does not take loan applications.
