Loan Scenario:
– Size: $100k to $5 million+

– DSCR: 1.20x+ required, as low as 1.00x for affordable properties
– Term: Up to 30 years
– Amortization: Up to 30 years
– Interest Rates: Fixed and variable rates available, interest-only (I/O) options available
Fannie Mae multifamily loans are a great option for well-qualified borrowers with a high net worth, a good amount of investing experience, and good credit. They offer some of the lowest rates and longest terms in the industry, as well as particularly high leverage (up to 80% LTV for qualified borrowers) and DSCRs as low as 1.20x. Fannie Mae apartment loans can also be ideal for smaller-scale investors, as their Fannie Mae Small Loan program starts at only $750,000. Like CMBS, Fannie Mae multifamily loans are non-recourse, but unlike CMBS, they only finance multifamily apartments, senior living facilities, and mobile home parks.
