Generally speaking, yes... Most lenders do NOT go above 80% loan-to-value. A few will go to 85%, and even fewer will go to 90%. If the loan is HARP eligible, loan-to-value doesn't matter. Talk to a local mortgage broker in your area for more assistance.

Since its an investment home, you would not get the same rate as a primary home without paying points. 85% would be the max LTV for most lenders, but there are portfolio lenders and banks who may lend to 90%.

Unless it's HARP eligible, you wont be able to refinance an investment property at 90% LTV. 80% LTV is the minimum, and 75% LTV is ideal. Investment property are inherently a greater risk for the lender, and for that reason, the loan would be priced higher.. The BEST rate is reserved for 760+ credit score borrowers, Purchasing a Primary Residence and putting 40% down.. .. I'm a Broker here in Scottsdale AZ and I only lend in Arizona.
