There is no set time frame after purchasing a house that you have to wait to buy another one to use as a rental. However, it is essential to consider a few things before buying a property to rent out. Make sure you can afford the mortgage payments on both properties and the costs of repairs and maintenance. The type of loan would be different than your primary residence and usually incurs a higher interest rate. Speak to a loan specialist for more info.

Odds are the best way for you to purchase is through an investment property loan.

    I'm thinking of buying a house for an aging parent. If I put the loan in my name, could my parent pay the monthly mortgage or a portion of the income? I want to help my parent, but I don't want it to appear as income on my taxes or be penalized for trying to help.
