Does the condo “HOTEL-LIKE NO project offer AMENITIES”? YES • HOA stability issues: • Timeshare or Fractional ownership in the project • HOA dues delinquency rate • Budgeted cash reserves • litigation NO! CONDOTEL • Direct sale to Fannie Mae! • ‘Normal’ terms, rates, and conditions. • 20% down required (no MI available on condos) • 30-year fixed rate available! • All ARM terms, available, too. 25% down payment required
Condotel financing requirements 2nd homes are preferred Investment properties have restrictions Square footage > 750 > 500 eligible for reduced LTV Credit score requirements Liquid asset (reserves) requirement Retirement funds not applicable Rule of thumb – 10-20% of outstanding mortgages Asset requirement is post-closing
Condotel financing terms 25% down payment ARMs – 3, 5, 7-year adjustment period 30-year term Fixed rate 15 - year (.75% higher rate than ARM) 30 - year (roughly 7.5% rate…notvery popular!)
On The Horizon Reducing down payment requirement to 20%! Reducing the level of liquid assets required for reserves! “Every day, our level of scrutiny is less than the day before.”
