PURPOSE

This is a single loan collateralized across multiple residential 1-4 unit and/or multifamily 5+ unit properties. Income producing properties must be performing at a DSCR of 1.0x or more. Minimum two properties per loan for Express product financing.
RECOURSE
Recourse and Non-Recourse options available.
PREPAYMENT PENALTY
All Residential Portfolio Loans have a prepayment penalty, usually through the first 5-years of the loan. Step-down and yield maintenance prepayment options are available.
LOAN LIMITS
Residential Portfolio Loans are available for 1st mortgages starting at $500k.
CLOSING

RESERVES
6 to 9-months mortgage reserves are required.
NET WORTH

LOAN TERMS & AMORTIZATION
1-4 Unit & Multifamily Portfolios: 5 to 30-year fixed terms. 15 and 30-year amortization.
FULL-TERM, BALLOON, AND HYBRID
Loans can be structured as full-term, balloon, and hybrid. Full-term loans amortize over the life of the loan, and are paid in full upon loan maturity. Balloon mortgages are fixed-rate loans with a balloon payment due at the end of the initial term. Hybrid loans have a fixed-rate for the initial fixed term, then adjust annually or semi-annually through the remaining loan term. For example, a 5-year fixed hybrid mortgage is fixed for the initial 5-years, then adjusts annually or semiannually through the remaining 30-years. A 5-year fixed balloon mortgage is fixed for the initial 5-years, with the loan balance due in full at the end of the 5-year period. A 30-year fixed mortgage is fixed for the entire 30-years, paid in full at loan maturity.
Full-Term: Higher rate providing the most security. Loan is fixed for the entire loan term.
Balloon: Lower rate than a full-term loan. Property must be refinanced or sold by the end of the term.
Hybrid: Lower rate than a full-term loan. Borrower has the benefit of a low fixed-rate loan during the initial term, can ride the adjusting rate after the initial fixed-term through loan maturity, or sell/refinance.
