Can a renter in Los Angeles CA buy a home in Fresno, Ca with less than 20% down. Parents would live there rent free.

Yes, you can with 3.5% down. 30yr fixed rates under 3.26% zero points. Must have 620 min fico and at least one of you must be on the loan with your son.

In this case, it is pretty straight forward. He would be buying the house as a rental property. He has no plans on living there, and will be renting it out to someone else. That is an investment loan. With that said, there are other possible routes to choose. If at least one of you AND your son are on the loan, then you can do as a non-occupying co-borrower FHA loan with just 3.50% down payment.

Good Morning! In this situation, would your son also be occupying the property with you and your husband? If not, the purchase would be considered an Investment Property and the Down Payment requirement would be at least 10% down. If you would like to send more specific details, please feel free to do so. You can reach me directly by visiting my profile and sending me an email from there. Thank You and Good Luck.

My suggestion would be to consider financing the home as a "2nd Home" as he has ties to the area, meaning the parents living there. In my opinion it would be a stretch to do FHA financing on a property that is not owner occupied. That being said, it might make sense to have the parents on the loan and as one mentioned, have the son be a non occupant co borrower.
