Best Am and LTV for Multifamily Conventional Loan (8+ units)

Best Am and LTV for Multifamily Conventional Loan (8+ units)

Hi BPers,

Has anyone seen better terms for multifamily lending than 20 yr am fixed, 80% LTV? I'd really like to find a 25 year am if possible. (I'm guessing 85% LTV is out of the question.)

My loan shopping focus has been on many local or regional banks, and tried one national internet-based bank. Wondering if there's a category of lenders I'm missing that would have better terms?

Some situational specifics pertaining to the question:

  • 8+ units, $250k+ loan amount
  • Current rate at 4.5%
  • Property in Omaha, Nebraska
  • New investor, no existing portfolio to leverage
  • High credit score, Good personal income

I'd take only 6-10 years of a fixed rate until reset if that made the 25 yr am possible. Any thoughts or possibilities? Thanks!

    What do you mean by 8+ units?

    If they are all in one building it is a commercial loan and you are not getting a 20 year loan. You will get a 5 year loan.

    I can get 85% LTV at American Interstate Bank in Elkhorn. It's only 20 year am though, with 3/3/3 adjustable. Theit interest rate was 4.25 about 2 months ago...

    @Mark Holencik Correct, I mean commercial property and lending. I have talked to multiple lenders who will do a commercial loan with a 15-20 year life, no balloon.

    @Owen Dashner Thanks for the reference, but unless American Interstate of Omaha isn't on the same page as the Elkhorn branch, I tried them already. They only do 80% LTV on commercial. And 20 year am, right.

    On larger apartment deals, we see 10/30 term and am structure.  Typically above 2 million on the loan.

    @Mark Creason Nice to know I have those types of terms to look forward to someday. :)
