This probably is a dumb question--but is it possible to get a mortgage with a 51-percent down payment? And, if you do get such a mortgage, do you receive the title as well, or is the lender still able to exert some control over you (e. g., force you to buy flood insurance)?

>> No.50174391

>>50174003
Yes you can get a mortgage with as little as 3% down. 20% down is the standard.
Yes lender will require insurance and on rare occasions will require property upkeep.

>> No.50175064

>>50174391
But I want the title AND the mortgage. I want to be the OWNER, not a guy renting from the bank.
Maybe a better plan is to buy the house with cash, and then immediately get a home equity line of credit for 49 percent. Does an HELOC give the bank any control over my property?

Why do you even need to buy a house? I am going to move into a tent next week. I don't really undertand why people need entire houses. Granted in the winter when it gets too cold I will have to rotate sleeping in my gf and others friends houses but aside from that it is a great way to not have to spend all your money on a house.

Tired of living in apartments, don't want to live in condos for similar reasons (and hidden HOA fees up the ass), and I want to own a dog or two and have a nice yard for them. Alternatively I was thinking maybe a trailer since I could just outright buy one

>> No.50177631

>>50177583
Fair. My aim is to eventually move up into a trailer. Only trouble with a trailer is making sure I have someone who will let me put it on their land. With a tent it is a lot simpler because I can pack it up and down in minutes and go wherever I feel like.

>> No.50177690

>>50177631
Yeah the only thing about trailers for me is dealing with them in the winter. I live in New England and we can have bad winters up here sometimes. Also my dad owns a trailer and some of the people at campgrounds are offputting. It's like going to high school all over again with the drama and you honestly don't have a ton of privacy unless you live in a secluded lot. I don't know lots of open questions with trailers for me personally but it'd be my second option. I just want a house with a lot of privacy with hopefully decent neighbors

While I've never lived in New Jersey, I've driven through it a million times. The only part of the state that's a real shithole is the outskirts of NYC (which, to be fair, is one of the most depressing places I've ever been). Once you get 30 minutes beyond that, it's just like any other state in the mid-Atlantic. Very "small town Americana" for most of it, for me that's what "real" America is more than anything in the midwest.
Pic related is one of the novel drives that I like in NJ, crossing the Delaware River into PA along 202.
