Can I start a business, then get a business loan, to then mortgage these rental properties? Basically borrow money to use for down payments on mortgage loans.

Lenders aren't going to give you money for a business if you're putting nothing into it... Answer by : Zach On Date 2008-05-21 15:11:25 No. I don't think that's legal to do. The business loan you get will be to build up your company, unless you state it's to buy houses. Answer by : Mrs Apple On Date 2008-05-21 15:11:45 Some business loans have higher interest rates than real estate loans so you have to look carefully into them and do your math. If you have some money but not enough, try looking into real estate hard money lenders, creative financing with sellers or partner with somebody.
