Getting a new-construction loan for an investment property between $80,000 and $90,000 can be difficult because many lenders require a minimum loan amount.
While a credit score of 660 and a 20% down payment may meet the basic requirements, lenders also consider factors like the property type, location, appraised value, loan program, and how you plan to use the money.
The main challenge is the smaller loan amount, not your credit score or down payment. Most lenders require at least $100,000 to $150,000, though some may accept less but with tougher conditions.
