Conventional guidelines regarding minimum property standards for small multifamily

[Elizabeth O.]

A little background: I have four traditional loans right now and have found a lender that will go up to 10. I walked through a Fourplex today that I would like to get a traditional mortgage on. Two of the units have been rehabbed and the other two need a lot of work. The place also needs a new roof and windows. I asked my lender if they do investor rehab loans and she said no. She then told me that it needed to meet the minimal property standards. I asked her where I could find these standards specific to multifamily and if each individual unit needed a functioning bath and kitchen. She said she would get back to me. Have any of you been able to get a traditional loan on a small multifamily that needed a lot of work without making the fixes prior to close? Thanks for any and all advice.
