Commercial lending for 6 unit apartment in Ohio?

Question

Hi BP!

So... I just took my first step in increasing the # of real estate properties that I own by winning a bid for a 6 unit apartment in Ohio.

I've been searching around and for a commercial loan.... the range that I could find is the following:

20 yr amortization

5 yr balloon

4.5-5.5% APR

20%

Are these the best rates our there? I was hoping for a 25 yr or maybe even a 30 yr, but they seem to be hard to find for a 6 units apartment/commercial property.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Typically it is 75% , let me know if you find lender with 80% LTV @Ryan West Do you lend in other states outside of Ohio Such as California, TEXAS etc.. ?

Federico Gutierrez · Answer

Don't get greedy over 5% take the loan. Your in AZ an bought in OH you'll be lucky to fine most will deny as they don't lend to residents not residing in the same state they own property.

Which city in OH did you buy in anyways

Ryan West · Answer

25 yr is tough to find on commercial, typically you'll find a 10 yr balloon with 20 yr am. We have a 15 yr FIXED rate product on commercial, or the above balloon. We can finance 80% on commercial as well. Good luck man!

Thanks @Darryl Dahlen.

I found a 80% but 20 yr. I am still looking for an 80% + 25 yr. :)

Thanks againChad

Based on a scan of that list, I only see one lender who would be interested in a small 6-unit loan. Almost all those are CMBS/Agency/Life companies with large(r) loan requirements.

That being said, WF has a small balance program that could be of use to you. The offer 25 year amortizations, but their cap is 75% LTV. If you can find 80% LTV then you're doing well, but you really want to make sure that lender is closing loans at that LTV. Very few are.
