Well you have a LOT to choose from.  There are currently 652 Condo’s on the market in East Baton Rouge Parish.  Here’s the bad news: without 10-20% down you may not get one.  I was told by 4 lenders in the past few days that the criteria for purchasing a condo has gotten very strict.  There are warrantable, which has more owner occupants than investors and leased out units, and warrantable.  There are a few complexes in town that are FHA approved which will require less down. I have been also working with the ONLY lender in town who can do 100% financing, but the requirements are STRICT.  Call me for details if you are interested in finding out more details!
