Can I get a loan with over 50% down but with high debt ratio?
I am planning to do a 1031 exchange sell one high price property and buy couple other properties. My FICO score is around 670 but because of the number of rental properties I currently own, it puts my debt ratio to unacceptabe high to qualifiy any conventional 20% down loan. Any body knows what other loan programs out there that would easier to qualify and with what % of down.

How high is your dti? Automated underwriting solutions are extremely flexible today allows much higher dti ratios than the old standard 40%…especially with large downpayments. Another option is to provide leases to the properties that you are purchasing if they are currently rented. Unless you are planning to vacate them to do work, you are usually allowed to use a portion (75%) of your rental income to offset the mortgage expenses on your investment properties. You should contact a few different mortgage companies who can give you some options. With large downpayments I’m sure there are plenty of options for you.
