Refinancing a Mixed-Use from FHA into a Commercial Loan?

Refinancing a Mixed-Use from FHA into a Commercial Loan?

Hi all,  I'm wondering if it's worth looking into refinancing w/ a commercial loan?  I currently have a 3 unit Mixed-Use property that I acquired 3 years ago under a FHA 203b (30 years @ 4.625% + Mortgage Insurance).  I've got 35%+ equity and I'm thinking even if I end up with a higher rate, I'd still see monthly savings w/ a commercial loan because I wouldn't be forced to carry mortgage insurance.   Is this assumption correct?  What are the rates today for mixed use properties @ 30 year amortization?

    You could also probably refinance under a conventional residential loan and eliminate your PMI if you really have 35%+ equity.

    The property is mixed use (2 apts above a commercial ground level).  My understanding is that you can't get a conventional on a multi-family or commercial investment properties.  am I missing something?
