Investor loans sit in a narrower market than owner-occupied financing. Fewer lenders write them, and those who do apply tighter underwriting to rental properties.
Underwriting digs into lease terms, tenant quality, and your exit strategy. SRK CAPITAL closes investor loans in 17 to 21 days, or 10 days when expedited.
04
Investor loans make sense in Napa when you're buying a second or third property. The $873,489 median price and stable 52-day market time give you room to underwrite carefully.
The trade-off is pricing—investor loans carry a higher rate than owner-occupied mortgages. For a portfolio builder with consistent rental income, that cost buys flexibility.
05
Investor loans differ from owner-occupied financing in structure and cost. Pricing runs higher, reserves run deeper, and documentation centers on property cash flow.
If you're building a rental portfolio, investor financing lets you stack properties without refinancing your primary residence. The higher cost buys you speed and separation.
