3 Mortgage Hacks Smart Landlords Are Using in 2025
Rates are high — but that doesn’t mean you’re stuck. These creative mortgage moves are helping landlords stay profitable.
Don’t Let High Rates Kill Your Strategy
While interest rates remain high, smart landlords are getting creative. Here are three mortgage tactics you can explore right now to unlock deals and cash flow more reliably in 2025:
1. Seller Buydowns
Sellers motivated to move are offering to buy down interest rates — often 1–2% off your first few years. This can save hundreds per month in payment and help the deal cash flow immediately.
2. Portfolio Lenders Over Big Banks
Small local banks or credit unions often offer better rates and more flexible terms than national lenders. They’re also more open to working with landlords who own multiple properties.
3. Turn Your Existing Equity Into Leverage
If you own a property with strong equity, consider a cash-out refi or HELOC. You can reinvest into another deal — just make sure the numbers work even at today’s higher rate.
