Then when you go to the bank, they just may ask if you have any debts - as a condition of the loan!! Even if they don't ask AND don't find out, they'll always charge a bunch of "points" for an 80% loan - there's another 13,000$!! You've put out 20,000 to control 200,000 - that is quite a reasonable margin leverage for the risk of having to meet the payments! Good luck to all you Type A hotshots that go for this method!!
