Yes it is. Just be careful that you are able to meet the income requirements. Lenders count rental income at 2/3s.
So if you rent the place for $1200, the bank will only let you cound $800 of that as income, and you will need to have 3x times as much income as your monthly mortgage payment in order to qualify.
The simple answer is YES, you can have two mortgages (one as your primary residence and the otehr as an investment rental property).
The more complex answer is this… the two mortgages are DIFFERENT.
The lending guidelines for an investment property mortgage is a LOT more stringent than the guidelines for a primary residence mortgage. The mortgage companies assume that a borrower is more likely to repay a mortgage on a home that the he or she is living in than a home that he or she is renting out to someone else. Since the investment loan is considered more risky, the interest rate will probably be higher and the down payment required will be significantly increased (probably more than 30%).
That being said, if you have a “primary residence” mortgage on a property that you’re renting out (or planning to rent out), that is almost certainly a violation of the terms of the loan. You should make sure that your mortgage company is aware of your plans so that you do everything right and legally.
One more thing… a “second residence” is considered the same as an “investment property” — whether you rent out the home or not is irrelevant regarding the terms of the loan as described above.
Good luck!
