It depends—for example, suppose you create a rental income forecast and find that the property you’re thinking of financing will generate enough rent to pay back your monthly premiums. In this scenario, it’s worth renting the property out (provided you can keep up with maintenance costs and still earn a profit). On the other hand, suppose you buy a property that won’t generate much rent but will likely appreciate massively. In this case, you might be better off financing it through an investment property loan before selling it for a profit down the line.
