Program Criteria

The apartment loan program is designed for 5+ unit properties and loan amounts ranging from $400,000 to $3,000,000 *. We make the procedure for obtaining an apartment loan for a multi-family building simple and very similar to ordinary 1-4 unit residential property financing.

The following is the list of some of the important criteria** that will be used during our initial loan consultation:

  • Real estate management experience for projects larger then 7 units
  • Sufficient income (without the subject property) and reserves
  • Job history, current pay stubs or YTD Profit & Loss Statement for self-employed
  • Assets/Liabilities
  • Federal Tax Returns (2 years) with all schedules
  • U.S. Permanent Residency
  • Ownership entity (LLC, Trust, etc.) documents including tax returns
