Post: second home vs investment property

Posted by Judy on 8/21/06
I want to buy my parents a patio home in my home town. The mortgage co. said I can not list it as a second home because it is not a vacation home and it is in my same town. She said it has to be a certain mileage from my home...what is that mileage? The rates for an investment home are really high...I am planning to move in this home after about 10 years of them living there. What are my options? Also, if we have to do this as an invesment property...how do you figure fair market value? Thank you for your help.
